about her health. new calls for her to resign. she waived for order -- waved off a reporter who asked her about it. >> do you feel like you are fit to serve? >> what you think about calls free to resign? larry: senator feinstein was being wheeled to a senate judiciary committee meeting, escorted by the eldest daughter of nancy pelosi. she is caring a red purse wearing the scarf. she seemed to be at her side, but she is not technically working for her office. today's exchange comes after the 89-year-old senator interaction on tuesday with an l.a. times or order -- reporter that raised questions. >> you have been working from home? >> i've been here. i have been voting. please. it is either no or don't know. larry: senator feinstein,

appeared to not know she was away from the capital for months while recovering from shingles. she is planning to retire at the end of her term. kristen: joining us now is our political analyst. thanks for coming on the show today. >> good to be with both of you. kristen: let's start with we just heard and saw. what are your impressions of senator feinstein? does she see more affected question goes complications? >> i think she has been more affected. the complication of the encephalitis, and it paralyzing part of her face has had an impact. that coupled with the fact that she lost her husband of 40 years, earlier this year, i am sure it has taken a toll. she has already decided that she is retiring. there were calls for her to come back to washington. she has returned. she is doing her duty by voting and serving on the committee.

so, i think we need to recognize that this is the end of her career. personally, whether she feels that she can continue. but that is her decision to make. larry: when you look at the interaction on tuesday, are you concerned about senator feinstein's ability to do the job? >> i think time will give us the answer. but, let me remind everyone that we have had members of the senate who have been gone for as much as a year, after having a stroke, and there were no calls to have them resign. there were no calls that they return to the capital. those have been made and quite swiftly in the case of senator feinstein. i think that we need to just give her the opportunity to evaluate whether she can continue to do the job. she's always put california

first. i think that, whether it is the 30 years that she has served in the senate or the 10 years she has served as mayor of san francisco, she is a record that she can certainly be proud of. kristen: certainly. i think, in the last couple of years, concerns about her cognitive abilities have been spoken in public, in the past year, progressive lawmakers have been very vocal that she does need to resign. do you think that calls for stepping down, has expanded beyond the circle, since the singles -- shingles episode? >> you have to evaluate who these people are. it is a handful. two members of the house do not even live in california. one member of the house supported her opponent in the last election, in which she was up for reelection. and who has a lot of ambitions himself. i think that giving time to

to make that evaluation is the appropriate thing to do. we don't call on other members of the senate to step down and yet some people are calling for her to do so. i do think that there is a level of misogyny here. we should call it out. larry: so, this is really a touchy situation, when you talk about someone who has devoted so much of their life to public service, do you know if anyone has sat down with her and said, look your 89 years old, we are not sure about where this is going, really think about whether you want to finish out your term? has that conversation been had with anybody? >> larry, i don't know if that conversation has been had. i can remember her, after george moscone he and harvey milk were assassinated, 10 days after the jonestown massacre, and that steely resolve helped her continue to lead the city and

helped her and her efforts to have the city heal. i'm certain that she came back because she wanted to come back. i don't know whether her positions wanted her to come back. she has a great deal of arsenal resolve -- personal resolve. that is what we are seeing. we should give her the time and space to make the decision she knows will be the best for the state of california. kristen: thank you so much, jackie speier, abc 7 political analyst. larry: coming up, as we continue on abc7news at 4:00, a big win for twitter. a new taste for dr pepper. i don't have to worry about daily hiv pills because i switched to every-other-month cabenuva. for adults who are undetectable, cabenuva

is the only complete long-acting hiv treatment you can get every other month. it's two injections from a healthcare provider. now when i have people over, hiv pills aren't on my mind. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients, or if you're taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions, post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression. if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection-site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. it feels good to just live in the moment. with every-other-month cabenuva, i'm good to go. ask your doctor about cabenuva today.

kristen: time now for the four at 4:00. it is a big win for twitter. the supreme court ruled twitter is not liable for hosting tweets made by the terror group isis, following the similar case of googles content moderation of google. it is a win for social media forms -- platforms that face similar lawsuits. karina: the people on the side of google and twitter, facebook, metta they state is a big win for 3 -- four free speech but this comes into question our isis posts and isis inspired people to commit crimes, should that be protected as free speech? yeah, victory for social media,

but i think still a lot of questions here, a lot of debate of course. larry: it is a slippery slope. you would like to see content that you know is untrue swiftly removed from the site, all of the sites. frequently that does not happen. another supreme court ruling today that could have big implications for artists. the court says andy warhol infringed on copyright law created work from the photo of pirnce -- prince. his silk screens are transformative enough to fall under the fair use doctrine. i find this to be really interesting. if you look at the music industry right now, current artists are sampling and basically taking music from older hits, from 10, 20, 30 years ago, and remixing them. it's clearly the exact same beats, but you are allowed to do that in music, clearly here with artwork is a different story.

what you think of this? sandhya: i am with you. it's ok in this arena with the music, but not ok with the artwork? it's happening. so, i don't know. karina: if you look at the photograph from the original artist and he see what warhol did, it is copying that. that is why they ruled that in this way. it's way too close so did not fall under the fair use doctrine. kristen: i wonder who guess decide if it is transformative enough. we are having this conversation when we have ai images based on artists' work and who was going to get paid? to me, that seems even more of a quandary. larry: going forward that will going to be. wel have -- we will have to sue ai. bring that server in here. kristen: two iconic texas brands are teaming up. it is dr pepper float ice cream.

the soda ice cream is partnering with bluebell creameries. it mixes vanilla ice cream and a doctor pepper -- dr pepper flavored sherbet. it's available now everywhere, bluebell is sold. who is excited about that? is that a flavor that floats your boat? [laughter] get it? i am trying to be spencer when he is not here. sandhya: i'm not a big dr pepper person. i would try it. i don't really drink soda anyway, maybe once or twice a year. it's interesting. i would give it a shot. karina: not a huge dr pepper fan. i like cream soda, like a cream soda float ice cream would be good or whatever ice cream we would have four tasty thursday. larry: leading us right into it. karina: was that a good segue? larry: cupcakes are trendy as ever. a hayward mom and daughter duo

[laughter] which one are you eating? kristen: i'm going to start with the strawberry looking cupcake. karina: i have the have the churro i think. kristen: tell us about your flavors. >> i think just having a big variety of cupcakes is something that is what we look e

we looked for when we opened the bakery. we wanted a large variety of flavors that people had options about to pick. larry: i want to get a whole tray. kristen: where is larry going? [laughter] larry: my display. i am basically the vanna of this operation. tell us what we are looking at. this is artwork. we should not eat this. it is too pretty to eat. >> thank you so much. we gave you four different options. kind of our top four. the one that has bacon is our french toast and bacon. that is the one we won best cupcake in the bay with. we serve that everyday in the store. it's probably one of our most popular cupcakes. we tried to give different frosting's, we gave you the brownie bite, which has our

fudge frosting on top. we also gave you the strawberry shortcake, which has a whipped cream, a little lighter cupcake. then our final one was our churro cheesecake. that is one that is a newer flavor. we incorporate cheesecake feeling and a grand -- filling and a grand proper -- filling and they ran -- graham cracker crust. kristen: larry, you can do workouts with. this thing. it's so heavy. larry: to be clear, all four of these are for me only? no for anybody else? >> sure. if you can get them all in definitely. kristen: bacon is amazing as well. >> i was not sure you would like that. i bring a couple of slices for you. we slip that -- serve that in our stores every day. karina: the banana pudding. to die for.

>> that is a family recipe. we take a lot of pride in our banana pudding. larry: tell us about the truck. in case we can get to the store. >> sure. we just recently, within the last year, open up our food truck, which is located in latham -- lathrop food plots on the central valley. it is sitting there. we don't move it anymore. we used to move it. but now that we have made it into a trailer. it used to be a full-sized truck. we cut it down, made it into a trailer, and now have it parked at the food plaza in the central valley. that's good news to us for this past year. a little over a year we have had it. larry: i see. congratulations. this is spectacular. >> thank you so much. we appreciate you having us here today. kristen: the cupcake shop, my mouth is so full. [laughter] this is all amazing.
