Feinstein's Judiciary Committee Future Uncertain Amid Health Absence and Calls for Resignation.

TL;DR Summary
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said he would follow Senate precedent for replacing Senator Dianne Feinstein on the Judiciary Committee if she resigns due to her hospitalization for shingles. Democrats would need 60 votes to replace Feinstein on the panel, but senior Republicans have made clear that they would not give them the votes to do that on a temporary basis. Graham also commented on the abortion issue, saying it's a human rights issue and that he welcomes the debate. He also discussed his recent trip to Saudi Arabia and the Biden administration's efforts to normalize relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
