SCOTUS Justice Sotomayor Says She Can’t Do the Job

[jknowgood]

Actually she said working with conservatives sucks

Coming from the tolerant party.

 

[White 6]

Actually, however , that is just part of the job. And if the broad doesn't like it , she should take a hike and next year the next President can appoint her replacement.

The Biden Rule prohibits the nomination of SCOTUS judges during an election year.

There is no rule. It is fiction. If there were, Trump would not have been able to nominate Amy Coney Barrett in Sept of 2020 and confirmed in March of 2020.

 

[Orangecat]

Aw.
The entitled Latina has to actually work.

There's the door, toots - don't let it hit you on the way out.

Hopefully that racist holds out long enough for Trump to nominate her replacement. It would be worth it just to watch the illiterate dingbats claim court-packing.

Bullshit OP based on bullshit

"Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor opened up on Monday about the “frustration” she said she experiences daily as the high court’s conservative supermajority continues to move the country further to the right"

“I live in frustration. And as you heard, every loss truly traumatizes me in my stomach and in my heart. But I have to get up the next morning and keep on fighting,” Sotomayor, the court’s senior liberal member, said at an event at the University of California, Berkeley School of Law"

She’s not a jurist but wants to be a policy maker

She was confirmed in October 2020
There are no rules whatsoever on when a President can nominate someone for an opening - the "rules" regarding confirmation are in the senate.

Joe Biden Argued for Delaying Supreme Court Picks in 1992 (Published 2016)

More than two decades ago, Mr. Biden, who was chairman of the Judiciary Committee, suggested a different standard for filling vacancies in election years.

Tillis Agrees With Biden Rule: American People Should Decide Next SCOTUS Nominee

Vice President Biden was absolutely correct: there should be no hearings, there should be no confirmation. The most pragmatic conclusion to draw in 2016 is to hold the Supreme Court vacancy until the American people’s voices have been heard.

Sotomayor is twice as liberal as the next liberal justice (Kagan). I shudder to think of what will happen to this country if the democrats ever gain control of the White House, Congress, and the SCOTUS with people like her in charge.

Sotomayor overwhelmed by demanding SCOTUS workload: ‘I live in frustration’

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor vented about being “tired” from her demanding workload as well as her “frustration” with the conservative-dominated bench.

nypost.com

The “wise old Latina” can no longer get the job done, as if she ever could. She is the typical low-quality, results oriented leftist hack posing as a jurist. But not all cases can be phoned in with a mindless leftist and emotional reply. Some cases require you to use your head. Tax cases, etc… in these cases she has a hard time trying to crowbar race into it. Thus, she gets overwhelmed.

Those three dingbat women appointed by Democrats are all worthless bitches that should be working as restroom attendants instead of sitting on the Supreme Court.

 

[Markle]

Why should anyone be surprised? Typical of President Biden's nominations, she checked the boxes. All except for the "Qualified" box.

She was never up to the task, intellectually, emotionally, or psychologically.

She just doesn't like having to fight for her ideals and apparently has bought into the idea that they should just be accepted by everyone else. We see the same attitude from entitled kids today.

 

[JLW]

The article concerned me. If Justice Sotomayor is not up to the pressure she needs to set aside, or as the NY Post article correctly points out, the liberals will have another Ruth Bader Ginsburg problem on their hands. Sotomayor is not in the best of health and if Trump wins in November, there is a possibility her seat may be vacated. Even if Biden wins, the Senate may be in the hands of the Pubs. I'd have no problem if she resigned now.

But would that do any good? Quid Pro is on record as opposing a president appointing a new Justice in an election year, so wouldn't he be principled and let the next president do it?

Sorry, I couldn't say that with a straight keyboard. Of course, he wouldn't be principled, he'd jump on the opportunity to have a sycophantic Senate rubberstamp his extreme appointment.

She better bow-out before the election then.

She cannot handle the job. Perhaps the so-called "conservative justices" can't stand her silly ass. We don't hear them bitching about her.

 

[Lord Long Rod]

When I read your "illiterate dingbats..." description, I immediately knew what Soto would do after she quits the court (i.e., "gitS RannEd off da CorT by TheM wHitE SupReemIsts onDuh cOrT!") - CO-HOST "THE VIEW"

 

[Lord Long Rod]

No Rule. I think that is what I said.

Some people just don't listen.

 

[WEATHER53]

She feels now what we knew from the start

 

[Dekster]

Never getting her way must be a drag.
