Justice Sonia Sotomayor should be replaced by Kamala Harris, CNN commentator argues
Fox News via MSN ^ | November 11, 2024 | Lindsay Kornick

CNN’s Bakari Sellers floated the idea of President Biden replacing Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor with Vice President Kamala Harris before President-elect Donald Trump can be sworn into office.

"CNN News Central" host John Berman asked Sellers about concerns among Democrats regarding Trump and the Republican majority in the Senate potentially replacing Sotomayor, the third-oldest member of the Supreme Court.

Sellers argued Sotomayor should step down so Biden and the current Democratic majority can replace her in the months before Trump’s inauguration to ensure another liberal justice on the court.

"You know, Justice Sotomayor has been a more than able justice. I know that she may be having some personal issues that she contends with while serving on the bench. But, you know, I don’t want Justice Sotomayor to be another Ruth Bader Ginsburg in terms of staying too long," Sellers said. "And so I hope that Joe Biden makes the next ten weeks as consequential as he can. I don’t care about drawing outside the lines or what Republicans may think about it. This is within your purview. You can actually do it and you should do it. And you know, one more thing, John, is you have a hell of a vice president right there who has a legal pedigree to sit on the Supreme Court. And let Republicans go crazy, ape, I’m even mentioning that option."

Looks like they are going to kill Biden and The Wise Latina both.

Yep - where do they get off thinking they can just SELECT people without a legal process.

You’d think they would get the message by the message America sent by giving the dems the middle finger over their last ‘selection’.

Assuming Biden has any brains left in his head, he would be thinking-

"After you just threw me under the bus for Kamala, you want me to throw Sonia under the bus ... for Kamala?"

He would really have to be totally brain dead, wouldn't he?

I’ll say it, Sonia didn’t k*ll herself.
It’s crazy how dems just think they tell and pressure people in leadership what to do.

She has no idea how to do the job of a Supreme Court justice. But she would be less visible, and get away with her failures.

Are they vying to put the dumbest vagina they can find on the SCOTUS?

At least when we did it, Amy can think outside her uterus..

I don’t think much of Sotomayer but all of this talk is so disrespectful to her. It’s really unseemly.

I really don’t know much about Sotomayor.

The thread was supposed to be about Kamala.

“one more thing, John, is you have a hell of a vice president right there who has a legal pedigree to sit on the Supreme Court.”

Emanations are vibrations emitted from things and written words. Emanations are amazing. Everyone loves emanations! And penumbras. Now a penumbra is a spiritual aura surrounding a constitutional amendment. I can see them because, you know, penumbras. Ha ha ha ha ha .

I know. I was talking about all the politicians and media asking for Sotomayer to step down. I wasn’t commenting on your comments. Sorry for the confusion.

Let’s see...that would mean replacing a “more than able” with a “less than able” I guess.
