Justice Sonia Sotomayor is the oldest Democrat-appointed justice on the court. It is starting to look like Democrats are ready to give her the heave-ho to give President Biden another shot at putting a Democrat on the Supreme Court.
It sounds like Democrats are none too confident that their guy Joe will win re-election in November. So, to head off another Trump nominee to the majority conservative court, Democrats hope that Sotomayor will take the hint and retire.
Will it happen? Nah. It's a lifetime appointment. Why should she give that up at the age of 69? She's young compared to other Democrats in top leadership positions

The Wide Latina is in everybody’s crosshairs. Here’s hoping her wide ego will keep her on the bench until Trump can replace her in his next term.

So, Sotomayor isn't towing the Party line and now they want to get rid of her. Those people are power mad and have no concept of what a Republic, which we have established here, should be governed. They all need to read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, the curriculum of which has been replaced in the schools with LBQTXYZ propaganda. It makes me very sad to see that which so many people lost their lives to defend is being destroyed by those Woke morons within our country.

They fear Trump being in place to appoint ANOTHER justice on SCOTUS. Wouldn't THAT be just sweet revenge against the DC Uniparty Criminal Cabal?

It would solve their Kamala problem. Lose the wise Latina and replace her with Horizontal Harris. Then slide Gruesome Newsom in to run.

They weren't successful with RBG, and now they're going to be worse with the "wise Latina" who wasn't qualified in the first place.

They won't let the Wide Latina pull a Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg dodge. When Ruthie was on her death bed - - we were told she could bench press 345 lbs. Not gonna work with the Latina. They'd poison her first.

Why would Dems want her out off the court when is not even close to the definition both physically and mentally of Diaper Joe? Besides, the Dems will not likely be able to get a proud racist, sexist like Sotameyer on the court again.

Life expectancy for a Type 1 diabetic is 69 years, which is her current age. That's why Leftists are getting increasingly nervous. Many Type 1 diabetics live a full life, but it gets more difficult to control after age 70.

They have to create a vacancy to be filled by Kamala to keep her off the 2024 ballot.

Like RBG, she ain't budging. The Lord will give Trump & America one more Justice as soon as the Second term starts.

What has Biden pledged to nominate next, a red-headed left-handed amputee in a three-way romantic relationship with a goat and a cheeseburger who also doesn't know what a woman is?

I saw a feference on last wks article that rumored Roberts was considering retirement as well. So if my math isright, theoretically in a yr + 4 more of DJT + 8 more of his VP (Vivek, lets say) there could be some significant Constitutionally minded replacements. Works for me. Out Roberts for whatever it is that has compromised him after the election

Why does it always have to be a long knife? Can't a dinky cutlass cut? Before American voters throw the Democrats out of the Executive Branch, they'd like to replace the diabetic Wide Latina Woman (sic, her self-description) with a 40-year-old communist Islamist. Would the justice leave voluntarily? RBG waited too long.

And don't forget, Justice Thomas has been on the Court for over 30 years. I would expect his retirement during the next Presidential term.

She's not going anywhere. Where else can she get free travel, a generous salary, a free medic to attend her, calculate her calories and blood sugar, and provide her with the appropriate insulin dose for free? And she can get her law clerks to write any opinion or dissent for her, just as RBG did near the end of her life when she was in hospital for many of the Court's arguments.

Sorry democrats but the so-called Wise Latina isn't going anywhere. Why do you ask? She's only 69 years old, she's arrogant, self-serving and it is a lifetime appointment. While she has free healthcare to tend to her various medical needs, she has others to do the paperwork side of her job. I predict that So-So will last longer than the rotting Potato wooden legging it around the WH.
