    If Democrats retain control of the Senate next year, Feinstein will succeed retiring Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy as the Senate’s president pro tem — putting her third in line for the presidency.

    I would like to see this personally

      First in line is Kamala, second is :good-morning:, fourth is a literal disintegrating skeleton in a broom closet at the pentagon

        At least Kamala is under 60, but that is one hell of a line of sucession. One bad covid streak could wipe 'em out in a week. You'd start reaching into the 5th stringers in the cabinet, fucking Treasury Secretary would be in line for it lol.

          It has a very poor track record on politicians, so far. Not even Trump died (or got long covid?) from it.
