Juan Williams calls for ‘nudging’ Supreme Court Justice Breyer to retire so Biden can appoint a Dem
May 24, 2021 | Tom Tillison
It seems everyone in America, outside of the right, believe the U.S. Supreme Court is as conservative as it has been since the 1950s.
Citing a supposed 6-3 conservative majority on the court, author and a political analyst for Fox News Channel Juan Williams suggested in an op-ed run by The Hill that the “out-of-balance scales of Supreme Court justice can be traced to the heavy hand of Senate Republicans.”
This being a reference to then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., not only denying former President Barack Obama from seating a Supreme Court justice but approving three nominees under former President Donald Trump.
And while Williams seems to have little trust in just how liberal Chief Justice John Roberts can be of late, the comment is his justification for Democrats to do the same thing, now that they have a majority of one on the Senate, courtesy of Vice President Kamala Harris being the tiebreaker.
(Williams still insists that he’s not a partisan hack — this ruse likely being necessary to retain his lucrative Fox News gig.)
