Dianne Feinsten, D-CA tries to discourage young people who visit her office.
Did you see de Kids questin Madum Di-Fi—

De chillen say, “NO water’d-down resolution!”
Lak dey ‘bout a decade ‘way frum revolution!
Way dey peepin’ de Dems' bull-scuses an’ lyin’
Questin is: when de shoes gonna start flyin’?
