I saw that today. Did not read it (Newsmax, y’know), but how exactly would that work? I don’t want to have to wade thru all the ED potion ads.

@jon-nyc said in Breyer to retire:
quota-based diversity
Yes, another black justice will make 22% of the court black
Only 12% of the country is black, 22% appears to be too many justices of color
But wait, you are doing the wrong math. There have 114 Supremes, and only 2 black. There is a long way to go.

Did you read the replies?
I try not to.
Pseudo-Intellectuals trying to explain how it’s justified because the black history and experience is SOOOOOO different than anywhere else or any other people in history.

Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Wiki lists all the mock trials she participated in with the Shakespeare company and none of what she has heard in her 7 months at the appellate level.
I'm not saying she isn't qualified, but I haven't found much yet to say she is. To be continued.

She's been a stalwart Trump foe. That much I can find.

Well, there's a qualification, to be sure.
It'll be interesting, during confirmation hearings, to see if that comes up. SCOTUS is supposed to be above politics, right?
RIGHT????
