- Apro-Trump GOP activist/strategist is going viral for his message to Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff — namely, instead of running for a Senate seat, retiring from Congress entirely because he’s a “sick man.”
- Schiff is one of several House Democrats vying for the permanent position left vacant by the Sept. 29 death of longtime Sen. Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
- Several polls in autumn have had Schiff heading toward runoff territory with Rep. Katie Porter, with the Los Angeles Times reporting Nov. 3 that the “two well-funded House Democrats have been pacing the field since the beginning of the year” in the so-called jungle primary, which includes both Republicans and Democrats.
