SCOTUS Justice Kennedy to retire - SilverFang01 - 06-27-2018

Kennedy, whom you may remember from previous hits such as:
Citizens United Wrote:"…independent expenditures do not lead to, or create the appearance of, quid pro quo corruption."just announced his retirement.
Who knows, maybe democrats can invoke the McConnell Rule: "We have midterm elections coming up, the people should have a chance to vote on which Senators will make this decision."
But then again, that would be uncivil.
I need a drink. Or twenty.

That only works if you've got the Senate under your control, sadly.
