New Post … Dianne Feinstein

Finally left the Planet @ 90 years old.

From Bard …

Dianne Feinstein (born Dianne Emiel Goldman; June 22, 1933 in San Francisco, CA) is an American politician who served as the senior United States senator from California from 1992 to 2023.

Feinstein was born in San Francisco and graduated from Stanford University and Harvard Law School.  She was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1969 and became mayor in 1978.

Feinstein was elected to the Senate in 1992 and  served on the Judiciary Committee and the Intelligence Committee.  She has been criticized for her close ties to the defense industry and her support for the Iraq War.

Diane Feinstein’s net worth is estimated to be between $19.4 million and $69.4 million. This includes her assets, such as real estate, investments, and personal belongings, as well as her income from her Senate salary and other sources.  Feinstein’s wealth comes from a variety of sources, including her salary as a senator, investments, and inheritance. She has also been criticized for her close ties to the defense industry, which has benefited her financially.  Feinstein’s net worth is significantly higher than the median net worth of Americans, which is about $121,760. This is likely due to her long career in politics and her investments.  It is important to note that Feinstein’s net worth is just an estimate. It is possible that her actual net worth is higher or lower than this estimate.

Quote from Diane,

  • On the Iraq War: “I opposed the Iraq War from the beginning. It was a mistake to invade Iraq, and it has cost us dearly in terms of lives and treasure.”

More from Bard about Death …

What happens when we die is a mystery. There is no scientific consensus on the matter, and there are many different beliefs and theories about what happens after we die.  Some people believe in an afterlife, where our souls go to a heavenly or hellish realm. Others believe in reincarnation, where our souls are reborn into new bodies. Still others believe that death is the end of our existence, and that there is nothing after we die.

Here are some of the different beliefs about what happens after we die:

  • Religious beliefs: Many religions offer different perspectives on what happens after we die. For example, Christianity teaches that people go to heaven or hell after they die, depending on their actions in life. Hinduism teaches that people are reincarnated into new lives after they die.
  • Philosophical beliefs: Philosophers have also pondered the question of what happens after we die for centuries. Some philosophers believe that death is the end of existence, while others believe that there is some form of afterlife.
  • Personal beliefs: Ultimately, what happens to us after we die is a matter of personal belief. Each individual must decide what they believe based on their own experiences and understanding of the world.

RIP Dianne
