During his "My Take," Friday "Varney & Co." host Stuart Varney addressed the health concerns surrounding Sens. Dianne Feinstein and John Fetterman. Varney questioned their ability to serve after recently showing signs of not being of sound mind and mentally competent to do their jobs.
: Two senators returned to Capitol Hill after long absences due to ill health. Dianne Feinstein had a nasty case of shingles with the related complication of encephalitis.

He's running for a second term, which means he intends to stay in the Oval Office for another six years.
I can't see it, and most voters can't see it either. At some point, senior Democrats will have to tell the president it's time to go.
