Sadly, Durbin is one of the least effective Senators with one of the most important committee assignments.
He refuses to have 'the talk' with Feinstein to force a resignation that is a decade overdue, resulting in an inability to confirm judicial or cabinet appointments, and he inexplicably refuses to discard the blue-slip rule. His ineffective handling of the Thomas corruption was utterly predictable.
If the country survives the 2024 election, Durbin needs to be replaced by a senator whose tenure is marked by tenacity and imagination vs mere longevity.
