She has been undergoing treatment for infections linked to the illness ever since.<\/p>\n<p>In calling for her to resign, Khanna became the leading Democrat to do so, explaining that although Senator Feinstein &#8220;has had a lifetime of public service, it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties.&#8221; He added, &#8220;Not speaking out undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In response, Pelosi told journalists that she found the circumstances &#8220;interesting.&#8221; She said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what political agendas are at work that are going after Senator Feinstein in that way. I&#8217;ve never seen them go after a man who was sick in the Senate in that way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Khanna spoke on Fox News&#8217; &#8220;America&#8217;s Newsroom,&#8221; in which he discussed his call for Senator Feinstein&#8217;s resignation, stating that although he held her in high regard, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know any other job where if you&#8217;re unable to fulfill your duties, you can continue to have the position.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I think she should do the dignified thing,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I respect her years of public service, and she should know when it&#8217;s time to step aside.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Khanna, when questioned about Pelosi&#8217;s remarks, stated that &#8220;This has nothing to do with gender,&#8221; and that &#8220;I know she&#8217;s very much for Adam Schiff getting that seat, but I don&#8217;t question people&#8217;s political motives.&#8221; He said, &#8220;This is simply about whether someone can do their jobs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/feinstein-asks-schumer-to-let-another-democrat-take-committee-spot-2nd-democrat-calls-for-resignation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Feinstein Asks Schumer To Let Another Democrat Take Committee Spot; 2nd Democrat Calls For Resignation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><a class=\"c-link c-link--focus-visible\" href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-22625\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
