Justice Anthony M. Kennedy announced Wednesday that he is retiring from the Supreme Court, a move that gives President Trump the chance to replace the court’s pivotal justice and dramatically shift the institution to the right, setting up a bitter partisan showdown on Kennedy’s successor.

“It has been the greatest honor and privilege to serve our nation in the federal judiciary for 43 years, 30 of those years on the Supreme Court,” Kennedy, who is stepping down July 31, said in a statement.

“The next Trump nominee for SCOTUS will be Borked every which way but loose. The progs will b wild to prevent a larger conservative majority.”

I’m going to predict that he puts his #3 or #4 pick up first, telling them, behind the scenes, that they WILL be sacrificed for the future of America.

The Socialists will froth and rail and then he’ll get who he REALLY wants appointed, anyway. :)

Keep the FAITH, Baby! He has NOT let us down, yet!

(As of this posting, the AWFUL RINO Ryan Immigration Bill is DEAD in the House!)
