thanks to the senate democrats led by dianne feinstein. okay. so that's tuesday. then yesterday, wednesday, she was not there for the second day of the jeff sessions hearing. see, there's her chair. and that itself is newsworthy, right? the top democrat missing on day two of that hearing but the reason it made our show last why she was missing yesterday. turns out, dianne feinstein had to go to the hospital to have a pacemaker installed. it's a 90-minute surgery. pacemakers have changed a lot over the years but the basic idea is still what you think it is. they surgically implant in your chest a mechanical electrical device like this one. it has a battery in it and everything.
