Here is a piece of trivia:

Who did LBJ nominate to take over Fortas’s seat as Associate Justice when he nominated Fortas to be Chief Justice?

It never got that far. Fortas was not approved for Chief Justice so kept his original seat until bumped OFF the court a few months after LBJ split.

I can’t remember, but the first two of Nixon’s nominations were rejected by the Dems Teddy K got extra time to get something on them.
