Irrespective of Nancy Mace’s never-ending dramas, and not to be alarmist, from published reports, U.S. Senator Darline Graham Nordone must have entered her 60s and shares half her brother’s genes. Though her photos do not reveal excessive obesity, she could benefit from weight reduction, smoking cessation (if she is or was a smoker), abstinence (if she is or was a drinker), a heart health diet, and at least one echo of her heart and arteries and one CT-angiogram with calcium scoring, and whatever medical advice is given to her based on those tests.
The relative protection from heart disease women enjoy compared to men decrease or diminish after menaupose.
Other-otherwise, whatever the distant future holds for her politically, U.S. Senator Darline Graham Nordone can, God willing (and FITS permitting this comment of mine or an open letter to the newly-seated senator) accomplish much in the coming 6 months.
She needs to look at the federal recusal statutes for judges, which statutes set degrees of relationships according to antiquates parentellic inheritance laws, not according to modern medical genetics. I would happily explain to her, in terms a non-physician can understand, that current federal law ERRONEOUSLY sets a federal jurist’s first cousin as a fourth degree relative when biological first cousins share with the jurist the same percentage of genes that great grandchildren or great grandparents, who are classified as third degree, share with the jurist.
Modernizing that statute, and aligning it with GINA would be a much-needed, very feasible, bi-partisan issue which will bring more fairness to all federal courts, and would likely be emulated by state courts.
Another very feasible, medically useful issue, and likely to receive bi-partisan support, is requiring all prisons to provide female inmates who just delivered with facilities to breast-feed the baby or breast pumps with secure transportation of the mother’s milk to the baby outside the incarceration facility.
The babies committed no crimes and should not be punished by denial of mother’s milk. Breast is best.

“menopause,” not “menaupose”; and “antiquated,” not “antiquates.”
Faint hands and blurry eyes produce typos.
