But we'll accept a President at 81?
I mean what options do we have . The only other choice is 4 years younger 😂.. and would be 78 if reelected 😬
Sanity>insanity
8 years max for president vs No limit for supreme court politicians aka justices
So long as he did not inhale.
SCOTUS has become a GOP packed disgrace for Americans, the constitution and the law! McConnell started it be holding up Obamas appointee 1.5 years yet pushed Coney-Barrett through a month before the Presidency ended. Congress must pass term limits for SCOTUS! There's no need for them to even allow them to hear the Trump immunity case other than to delay everything awaiting Trump since a lower court already ruled on it. Also, McConnell did not impeach Trump because he stated criminal charges could be brought against him after his presidency! Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Comey-Barret should all be impeached since they perjured themselves during their hearings stating Roe was already law of the land!! Let's nit even get into all the kick backs and gifts especially Thomas. His claim that someone told him he doesn't gave to report is BS. if he thinks that's true he doesn't belong or have the intelligence to be a justice!
the people calling for justice sotomayor’s resignation don’t realize that she isn’t an elected official. she doesn’t need their approval.
Ya she doesn't need their approval... but she should do it because its the politically smart thing to do as a team player.
She's risking pulling a Ruth Baden Ginsberg.
She's only 69.shes healthier than the other two
😂😂 69 is a common age for death. What is wrong with you? You work for Trump and Republicans who want a 7-2 court forever?
Type 1 diabetics hardly ever live past 70! If they even make it that far. She’s an anomaly at this point. BOW OUT GRACEFULLY for Heaven’s sakes!!!!!! 🕊️
😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤@@emjay2045
I hope she stays and keeps her spot on the supreme court till she passes while the big bad orange man is in office.
He can than replace her spot like he did with that corpse RBG.
Lifelong history of type one diabetes, symptoms began at age 7.
You can live with it by taking good care of yourself, but not much past 70.
If she’s still alive and able to work six years from now, it’ll be a statistical miracle.
Omg. Get a grip.
Her elderly self needs replaced.
Ruth Baden Ginsberg should have gotten a grip... and retired when the time was right.
What give Them That right??? Telling Her to retire!!!! When is Nancy going to retire??? Nancy Up In Age!
Nancy gone after this year. It’s being strategic with Sonja She needs to bow out GRACEFULLY. 🕊️
She's a politician, so people will comment on her career. Nancy is old too, but not nearly equivalent to the position Sotomayer is in.
The court can't afford another Ruth Baden Ginsberg situation.
We need Term Limits in the Senate & Congress First!
And scotus. 10 years and you're done
That's stupide. Being the oldest doesn't mean anything. Just worry about winning in November.
Leave her alone, she’s too young to retire my radical feminist ideology liberal friends
@@chuckxu5910Please No liberal ain has ever captured and filled up courts like how Conservatives had actively done deny people their basic human rights.
If anything, I fascists and ur need to get into other people's bedrooms is creepy and radically horrifying
It's 'stupide'? nice spelling.
Being the oldest does mean something. Especially when you are one of the few judges on the supreme court.
I'm not a radical feminist, but I do think she should make the smart political move and retire.
Unconscionable behavior toward Justice Sotomayor.
Nope. Bow out gracefully. You think the SC is out of control now. Just wait until they get her seat Country REALLY won’t be recognizable anymore
Supreme court delaying answers to Trump's immunity case clearly shows that some of the justices have been bought. Like Clarence Thomas, Roberts and Alito.
Blumenthal should'nt be telling anyone to retire except himself.

Liberals and Conservatives are just two different types of Narcissists. Liberals are Benign Narcissists and Conservatives are Malignant Narcissists. Ultimately it’s all about them and what they want and how they decide to write or interpret laws based on their personal feelings. Not what’s right, decent, or necessary for the benefit of all people.
ideology has NO business on the supreme, or ANY court. thats not their job.
As much as we want that to be the case, it never will
the problem is, republicans do not observe that idea. They WILL stack justices based on ideaology.
I don’t particularly like her but if she leaves because she has diabetes… that’s dark. Ma’am, don’t ever leave for having diabetes. That is a terrible precedent.
Old & diabetic. Look where RGB got the Liberals on the court count. 🥸
Kavanagh will be still a supreme court Judge for at least 15 more years
We need to get rid of Clarence Thomas and brett Kavanagh
Exactly. Why retain those with blemished reputations?
@@jopettuason3717 Republicans sucks that's why
… and … cocky Alito …. Phony Roberts …. Amy Conjob Barrett
Thomas is the best

Leave Sonia alone. It’s her call alone.
She might as well become Republican then since she’s hurting democrats.
As it was Ginsberg’s? Look where that got us. Don’t be a fool.
Biden would just nominate some wishy washy spineless Merick Garland type so he would come across as fair.
@@radioactivegaming7532She is 69 and just fine.
@radioactivegaming7532 hey liberal Supreme court Justices can't explain what a women is biologically 😅
I don’t think she’s the one who should retire but the crooked ones , ones that get free gifts , trips …you know who I mean.
Oh! We know who you mean!!!
Samuel Chase of course! After he got impeached in 1804 he should have retired after that!
His acquittal helped make our modern Judges nearly immune, and the John Fries Case of 1800 was a disaster. hehehe.
The one who should retire is corrupt Clarence "money" Thomas. He does a bang up job accepting money from people who are looking for favorites .
You can quote me, " You make public what is private".
Still not sure why this is being talked about
Because she’s almost 70 with type 1 diabetes. I’m surprised she lived this long. Look what occurred with RBG. Now we got them crackpots on the R tearing up ALL the rights & fixing the system for the ULTRA WEALTHY
It's doubtful any judge will retire as long as they receive the "fringe" benefits
Sad but true !
Term limits and more over site
Pipe Dream
Pipe Dream
If you want to get the justices to go a certain way , deep pockets help!
RBG was very old when she died! Sotomayor is 69, younger than many other justices
Yes, but she’s also a lifelong type one diabetic, whose symptoms began when she was seven years old
If she still able to work six years from now, it will be a statistical miracle
Calling for Justice Sotomayor's retirement is a waste of political capital. Libetals need to pull out all the stops to win the presidency and take back the House & Senate. If liberals do their job, they can focus on impeqchibg Justices Thomas & Alito. Situations like this is why education is so important...😐😑
If Sotomayor does not step down now and if Trump wins and she has to leave during his presidency, let's guess who will replace her. Try Aileen Cannon on for size. Her reward to delaying the documents case or, worse, instructing the jury that Trump could take all the documents legally under the Presidential Records Act (despite her weasel-worded ruling today).
Exactly. Please Sonia dont make the same mistake rbg made
No, it won’t be Canon; it’ll be someone worse: Matthew KACZMARYK
Can your Court define " experience" as Compassion?

How does a TV or Radio give a Med?
36 Business Days at Dr Davis' building. No cats.
Direction.....
Daily MEDS served from TV and Radio ....
Politics, age and race shouldn't matter.
All you need to do is read the constitution and understand it.
All high-level government employees (e.g. President, Vice President, SCOTUS justices, Senators and Representatives) should have a mandatory retirement age of 65. Although many humans still can function at 70, they are way beyond their prime.
That’s bs if republicans were able to fill RBG seat in record time I’m sure democrats could do the same.
I wish Senate Democrats were more like Mitch McConnell in the sense of being ruthless
The center is What on TV and Radio?
buncha Methusalas telling the Justice to consider her age!!
Thr Rummell's give Meds How?
Ginsberg was a supreme narcissist.
Thomas should be the one to retire and not because of age but because of being married to an insurrectionist
Dr Campbell, public land
Define " magic" on CBN? No.
Why, she should stay as long as she wants. Thomas and Alito need to...don't see no one asking them to retire.
It's about the fact that she's old, and if dies from a health problem with a republican imas president, it will be coney barett replacing ruth bader all over again
@@baltimoreravens4eva560 You must be a man.
Adam Bertuch and Kara daily give me meds? Huh Dr Campbell.
I’m not even American but I need someone to tell Thomas and Alito’s crusty arses to get out of the court.
I think she might end up complying, not that long before he retired, Breyer also said he had no plans to retire and he was also younger than Ginsburg was. Reportedly he has been in better health than either. He ended up retiring anyways.
Gorsuch is only 56!?!?! He surely looks a lot older
Who "casts" films or TV?
Burt Reynolds starred in A Benton, AR film, "White Lightning". I was told Billy Bob Thornton was born here. What ....
It's better to be conservative than way out on the limb where you are on the verge of falling.
Please spare us! Enough. You aren’t royalty. You are just a justice that won the lottery when there were far more qualified candidates to chose from.
The only thing thats come out of NBC that was interesting and worth watching in a very very long time.
These people will never retire. It's all about them. It's all about power. So give it up already. She's not going anywhere.
How can the retirement of her change anything.
Your power.....
It's time some Democrats AND Republicans resign....probably some Independents as well. Most of our government's representatives are out of touch and close to senility, including our President and candidate for president. Haven't they gotten rich enough representing the special interests?
In 2009 donks celebrated her as the "Wise Latina." The wisest, most brilliant, smartest woman in the ENTIRE world who could do no wrong...LOL.
If RBG had retired in a timely manner, when Obama could replace her, we wouldn't be in this situation.
We would because we would still only have had 4 seats. Thanks the Republicans for stealing a Supreme Court vacancy from President Obama.
Mc Connell was in charge. Wouldn't work
@@moorefacts6605but they wouldve had to replace her because it was 2013, and obama didnt leave till 2017
Agreed
@@moorefacts6605but it was 2013, and obama didnt leave office till 2017, so they wouldve had to replace her in 2013
"She's only 69 years old" -a 70 year old man
They need to clean house at the supreme court.
You people have no idea the Disaster you are wishing for.
And what would that look like, in your mind?
Public Access Public Land , must have a owner. I know my feet. No juice in my toes.
Justice Sotomayor is 69 and of sound mind. President Biden is 81 and not of sound mind. Get your priorities right.
Age 47 no idea

It doesn't matter. If Trump is elected he will put at least 11 justices on the court.
Who did this story?
Hamilton Home Hamilton Lake. See.
Trump never pulled off and upset Hillary one by over 2million votes the electoral college gave him the election.. thats what everyone should be concerned about a system not truly voting the will of the people.
The Electoral College is NOT designed for a majority rule. That would be a Democracy which the United States is NOT! It's designed to allow ALL states to have an equal say in the government.
Here's where they jump in and tell you that urban votes should only get 3/5
Left looking for a new hire knowing that they have no hope left if they lose another justice under Trump's next term. 🤣 😂 🤣
Exactly
Stupid! She is the smartest on the court
Let's get rid of anything Trump touched.
There is a shot, of an antipsychotic med, IS that Dr Davis' opinion? Huh
Public LAND
So get rid of a 69 year old, but vite for an 81 year old? 😂😂
She should wait until Trumps re-elected. We need a more conservative Supreme Court.
We don't need a more "Conservative" Supreme Court. We need a more Constitutional Supreme Court who knows their job is simply to enforce the Constitution.
It isn't that hard. The government has a number of things spelled out in the Constitution. It says all other powers are given to the states. This Supreme Court seems to want to give the federal government more power, some in favor of Conservatives, some in the favor of the leftists. If something needs to be handled Federally, it needs to go into the Constitution, which is intentionally very difficult, but possible if necessary.
Trump will Appoint Someone!!
Lol shut up
"Bank of America" ( BoFa ) .
It will still be a 6-3 majority so why it matter
Because you appoint a 40 year old, and hopefully secure the seat for 30 years.
She is over 10 years younger than both candidates for president yet she is the one too old to serve 😂
She's not the brightest legal mind, anyway, but her age shouldn't be a factor for the time being. After all, she's 70, not 80.
It's about greed. Everyone in government is TOO OLD!!!
Lol wow even the Dems are turning on their own.
We want her to retire so she doesnt die with a republican president in office
Saturday Night Photography, Dr Campbell huh?
The PRESIDENT has a time (2) limit WE AMERICANS WANT Congress and Supreme Court Should be the SAME it's OUR HARD Working TAX Money and OUR VOTE Thank you 🌹
Maybe not a Term Limit but an Age Limit. 70 should be the retirement age for a SCJOTUS.
@@ronwatson4135And senator and house member
@@baltimoreravens4eva560 -- Agreed.
Manufactured stories… who are “some Democrats?”
She ahould resign right before trump gets elected so trump mp can appoint a conservative
If only the other fossils would expire.
Biden is nearly there….

NO , no body have right to tell you what to do, is her decision .
Ginsburg was a Jewish woman.
Democrats can’t alter their narcissistic narratives!
True story.
@@danielasanchez8252do us all a favor. Google the concept of "common good" and quit sounding like such a petulant little child.
69??...😅 There are other fish to fry I would guess. Any of the justices could die anytime. And Clarence could get another free motorhome
All congress judges should be replaced with people who have guts and common sense and work for Americans not the trouble makers.
LOL, the abortion memo LEAKER HMMM
Alito
@@emjay2045 yes alitos writing Sodamayor leaks it
She has clearly been a partisan political activist the whole time so not sure why they don't push her out
Aren’t they all?
She’s only 69 years old meaning past her prime three times over all cylinders are not as sharp.

Nah. Joe needs to pack the court.
The only thing Biden packs is his diaper.
Vote blue up and down the ballot. Impeach Alito, Thomas and Kavanaugh. Take back SCOTUS.
