Breyer to Retire

Link

• Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer is retiring, NBC News reported, giving President Joe Biden a crucial opportunity to replace the liberal justice.

 

Would be more impactful if he could replace a conservative judge. We dodged a bullet!

 

"Can't confirm a supreme court during midterm season"__Sinema probably

 

Not really a surprise, to me anyway. He is exactly on my expected timetable.

As I said on September 21:

"That's a roundabout way of leading up to the issue of Justice Breyer retiring or not. He may enter the next term that starts in October and maybe announce after the first of year that this will be his last term so that the dems can start trying their luck. I can see that. That's the best he can do at this point."

The bad news for dems of course, is that he/they are following this timetable because they know they are at risk for the whole enchilada at midterms.

 

Methinks Kummyla has pretty much nailed her own coffin on that one.

 

That selfish Bitch Ginsberg should have done the same.

 

As discussed wayyy back when Merrick Garland was appointed AG, and all the tards started grinning like cheschire cats - NOPE. If this is supposed to be Garland rehabilitated and back in the game now for future re-consideration, it is headed nowhere.

Garland us just going to end out taking up the bo-bo twice and is never going to be on the Court, and being AG is just a hack position that is no more elevated than the position he left which was on the DC Court of appeals.

So now Garland not only is not going to be nominated BUT his replacment on the Appeals Court - a skin color woman- will be the number one pick or consideration anyway.

OUCH!!! That's gotta hurt. But screw him. He is a drip. He should be removed from office and put in prison for targetting political enemies, including parents.

 

White House: Biden stands by pledge to nominate black woman to Supreme Court

The White House chose not to comment directly on Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer's plans to retire but said President Joe Biden stands by his 2020 campaign promise to nominate a black woman to sit on the nation's highest court if given the chance.

Biden made the pledge during a February 2020 Democratic presidential primary debate.

 

Well Merrick Garland can claim he self-identifies as a black woman.

 

That's what Chuckie says today.

We've had black Americans on the court.

Time to nominate a Native American.

Elizabeth Warren.
