What is up with Feinstein? About once or twice a year I agree with her on something and she seems like she makes common sense decisions. Last year it was when she called for the monitoring of foreign arab students studying in dangerous fields, like nuclear engineering. Then the professors came after her.

What is up with Feinstein?

This one has to do with her ego. Wally Herger got DiFi involved with the Herger-Feinstein / Quincy Library Group legislation for the Plumas National Forest. The idea was to put a locally driven consensus process involving both timber interests and environmentalists in charge of forest policy.

Well, DiFi got it passed and the QLG spent several years consensing, with nearly every RICOnut demand and claim being refuted by hard science. So they sued anyway and rolled QLG into the Sierra Nevada Framework.

DiFi got stiffed in a classic bait and switch. She's rather ticked about it.
