Do you think he should retire?



83 y/o Liberal Justice, Stephen Breyer is hinting of retirement as progressives have been pushing for his retirement given his age as he tells Fox News Host, Chris Wallace "I don't intend to die on the court. I don't think i'll be there forever" as he is being pressured to step down before the 2022 elections.

Wallace played a clip of late Justice conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, who did die while serving saying that you have to be mindful of the politics of the president who gets to decide your replacement

He admitted that it is something to consider that if a Republican president got to choose his replacement, the court could undo everything he did in his career and said "I see the point. There are many considerations, many many considerations"

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has been calling the clinton appointed judge to retir so Biden can replace him with a younger, liberal justice and not to have a repeat of Ruth Bader Ginsberg scenario

Sen. Amy Klobuchar also said that it was his decision to retire but that if he was going to then he should do it sooner rather than later

The party is expressing anxiety as the justice could hold on until 2024 which is not a guarantee of a Democratic President and Breyer could end up dying in the next 4 years and be replaced with yet another conservative which would then be an ultra conservative majority of 7-2 though John Roberts is seen as more moderate

He is part of the liberal wing which is being reduced at a fast pace when Donald Trump replaced judges with 3 conservatives..

Breyer is also against court packing as it would betray the trust of the american people and was much against the abortion case when 5 of the justices ruled against blocking an abortion ban that Texas has announced
