The rumor going around is that Breyer’s resignation might not be his own decision. See https://media.greatawakening.win/post/XKJUtr9UdyK4.png
If this is true, then it is obvious this is a strategic ploy for the mid terms by the Dems to motivate more Democrat voters.
Scenario A: They nominate someone reasonable enough to get the 60 senate votes to confirm, and the Dems look strong(er) for November having accomplished securing their liberal justice vote in SCOTUS.
Scenario B: They nominate a black woman, which in itself is not the problem with the nominee, but she is an absolute whackadoodle moonbat, which prevents her from getting the 60 votes. Her appointment gets blocked by the GOP, and the Dems will cry white supremacy, racism, and misogyny from the “evil GOP”.
IMO, scenario B makes more sense, since it will garner more motivation for the Dems, AND they are in no hurry to actually replace him immediately because they can simply ask Breyer to extend his stay on the court, especially since he wasn’t quite ready to retire anyway.
Anyway, just be ready for whatever they are up to. Whatever comes of this, we know they are up to something.
EDIT: simple majority is needed in the senate to confirm, not 60.
I'm betting on scenario B... they need more raycisssm to use for the mid-terms.
Problem for them is that we don't care about being called racist anymore. And I don't think normies take the race card nearly as seriously as they used to.
The race card has been significantly devalued, but liberals don't get it, so they'll try it anyway.
Someone point me to the betting window please.
$100 to win on the above
I’ll add in a side bet for the superfecta nomination:
And also add in a part wheel with moonbat and whackadoodle.
Let's say we get the moonbat. All the Republicans have to do is play along. Remember, they're replacing a guy that's already a moonbat - so all they gotta do is get the RINOs and retirees to vote to confirm. The media's going to promote this person, so conservatives will need to point out all the stupid stuff and then let the RINOs join the democrats in making the fiasco happen.
We'll know who the fakers are in the Senate (before the primaries) and the ideological makeup of the court won't change anyway. It would be like making the dems put their version of Harriet Miers on the court. ('Member that one?)
God help us🙏
I agree, they don't want another Ginsberg situation and they know this is a last chance to do anything big. Breyer is learning how much the liberals respect age and each other.
It's very sad for all the accomplished black women out there when the only real qualification needed is they are black and female. Slap in the face.
Appears a few if the names being floated out there are not even lawyers; just black females.
I thought they only need a simple majority to approve a justice.
You’re right. My bad. Updating OP to reflect. Still same strategy with different players. Ie Manchin, sinema
Only need 51 votes to confirm a scotus nomination. Sinema and Manchin are going to trouble for dems but Mitt the shit, Murfuckski, Lindsey bitch and cocksucker Collins will bail them out as usual.
Seems to be a distraction. Look over here!!! Meanwhile, shit happening and passing while we’re looking the other way. In the end they fail and God wins. The end.
Scenario C: with an even split of 11/11 of the senate judiciary, black liberal woman would pass cloture with a simple majority, making her eligible for confirmation with also a simple majority.
Assuming a party line vote, Kamala would break the tie.

The good news, we're so close to the election that they may not clear all the hurdles to proposing a new candidate before November.
Pretty sure his handlers tell him when he's done. Ginsberg had to continue for months after she was dead.
The nominee must be investigated up and down from elementary school to the present to be sure she, as a “woman of color” did not sexually molest/abuse or perpetrate hate crimes on any of the multitudinous sexes or races. I say this tongue in cheek after what Justice Kavanaugh had to endure. We should not, however, entertain the nomination of .anyone who is pro-war, pro-abortion, against the death penalty, against secure borders, against legal immigration only, against the 2nd amendment.
