I'd like to see 3 more people appointed to SCOTUS who are of similar mind to Thomas and Gorsuch.

Those 2 Justices were both ready to hear Peruta.

 "buck negros"? The fuck is that??

 I think Justice Thomas earned the right to be called a man.

I came to this thread and learned the term buck negro, something I've never heard before.


And I worked with a seventy-five-year-old security officer who referred to some kids playing basketball as "these colored kids" over the two-way radio for everyone to hear in 1997.

Trump should officially declare that he will not be seeking a second term. Strictly for the purpose of encouraging RBG to retire.

Then he should announce that he was only joking after she is out.

Unfortunately RGB will never voluntarily leave the court, not under any POTUS who's not a woman and certainly not under Trump.  Can she live another 6 years? Sure, that would only make her 90.  She's got far better healthcare than my Mom did, and Mom lived until 92.

Kennedy is 80 and Breyer is 78. It'd be nice to see both retire, but I doubt Breyer will retire while Trump is POTUS.

LOL she'll outlive all of us.  Check out her recent interviews, she is hale and hearty and sharp as a tack.  She has a personal trainer (a frigging Special Forces Reservist), a nutritionist, and just authored a workout book, Workout of the Original RBG.  To top it all off, she's had cancer twice and didn't miss a day of work.  Even undergoing chemo.

I hope he lives to be 100 and we get 7 more just like him.  He has really come into his own since he is out of Scalia'a shadow.  His defense of the constitution may be the strongest of any judge in living memory.  His decent of not taking the California carry ban was epic.

For those of us who work in marbled halls, guarded constantly by a vigilant and dedicated police force, the guarantees of the Second Amendment might seem antiquated and superfluous. But the framers made a clear choice: They reserved to all Americans the right to bear arms for self-defense. I do not think we should stand by idly while a state denies its citizens that right, particularly when their very lives may depend on it.”

As much as I like Judge Thomas, I'm inclined to see if it were possible to allow a younger 40's candidate who could continue to be effective for 30 years to come.

On "Planet Hammer", the SCOTUS would be a 30 year term, unless the individual requested to retire early.   Judges should be independent, but not kept on the bench for life...
