Rep. Khanna calls on Sen. Feinstein to step down

Published Sat, 28 Dec 2024 04:55:28 GMT

By Nicky Robertson | CNNCalifornia Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna is calling for California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein to resign — a rare instance of a lawmaker urging a member of their own party to step down from Congress.“It’s time for @SenFeinstein to resign. We need to put the country ahead of personal loyalty. While she has had a lifetime of public service, it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties. Not speaking out undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people,” Khanna said Wednesday on Twitter.The 89-year-old Feinstein announced in early March that she had been hospitalized and was receiving treatment for shingles. On March 7, Feinstein said on Twitter that she was recovering at home as she continued to receive treatment, and she said that she looked forward to returning to the Senate “as soon as possible.”Feinstein has not announced when she will return to the chamber. Earlier this year, the California Democ...

Visiting 49ers’ pro day has Isaiah Foskey, Viliami Fehoko eager to join defense

Published Sat, 28 Dec 2024 04:55:28 GMT

SANTA CLARA — Defensive end Isaiah Foskey stood Wednesday on the Levi’s Stadium field, imagining what it would be like if the 49ers drafted him in two weeks.“It’s already a good defense. Add me, it’d be a great defense,” Foskey said.Consider that more of a sales pitch than him being an overconfident prospect. The 49ers don’t have a pick in the draft’s first two rounds, and they’d likely have to move up the board rather than hope Foskey falls to them at No. 99 overall, their first slot.Foskey was strictly an observer at the 49ers’ local pro day, as was San Jose State counterpart Viliami “Junior” Fehoko and a few other candidates who’ve set their draft market, via their collegiate play, the scouting combine, their schools’ pro days, and all-star games.Jake Haener, a Fresno State product from Monte Vista High-Danville, joined Stanford’s Tanner McKee and Houston’s Ike Ogbogu (Bellarmine College Prep) to ...

And that’s what good teams do,” Young said. “All good teams, every team, goes through injuries. And we knew something like this would happen, didn’t know when or to whom.”Texas went into Wednesday night’s game against the Royals leading the AL West with a 7-4 record.Seager said he didn’t remember much about the 2019 injury and didn’t want to put a timeline on a return.“ThereR...
