Justice Breyer has sent a letter to President Biden informing him that his retirement will be effective 24 hours from now: at noon on Thursday, June 30.
And now the process for replacing Justice Bryer should begin! Oh! Wait!
Nevermind!

Don't fail to see the significance of the precedent that's been set here. A SC Justice no longer has to retire with a date certain prior to the cofirmation of his or her replacement. What stops a Party from lining up justices-in-waitng for years --- especially if they're about to lose the Senate majority?

Yep, Yep, Yep.
As far as I see it, there has been no confirmation of a new Justice as there has yet to be a vacancy on the court.
