Who knows. But good thinking on your part...its almost like they are up to something in DC declaring these 2 like it is planned?

But, no SAVE Act.

Which means Alito's replacement won't mean shite when the Dems nuke the filibuster and add 5 seats to the court.

I’m very fond of Cruz. I voted for him in 2016 primary.

But I’m leaning Lee if I had a say.

How come? I'm not as familiar with Lee, what's your thinking?

You and Angelle might have an insight here, I need to do some reading.

Lee clerked for Alito... so that's pretty cool.

Ted Cruz is often the smartest man in the room.

I'd be happy with Cruz or Lee.

Why can't Roberts retire... why does it have to be one of our best and brightest.

Cruz is 55
Mike Lee is 54

What has been the youngest nominated?


I learned something new today:

Joseph Story (1811) - 32 years old

quote:

On November 15, 1811, Story was nominated by President James Madison to become an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, succeeding William Cushing,[1] who had died 14 months earlier. Aged 32 years, 58 days at the time of his nomination, he became (and, as of 2026, remains) the youngest person nominated to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.[19]

I only want America First patriots on the Supreme Court, so Cruz is out.
