Where are you finding that? I have a few sights that usually have the info before anyone and nothing is mentioned.
"After Noon today" just means "Not BEFORE noon today.." March of 2025 is also "after noon today" :-)

We need Kennedy's seat and one other because I wouldn't bet that Thomas (who is probably the most solid 2A vote remaining) necessarily lives longer or much longer than Ginsburg. Despite her health issues, Ginsburg will definitely try to wait until 2020 when there's a chance that the WH will flip.
I don't even view Roberts as much more pro-2A than Kennedy, and Alito has statist tendencies. But both Roberts and Alito will likely continue for at least a decade more.
Thus in addition to a Kennedy replacement, we need to get someone in when Thomas or Ginsburg steps down - meaning Trump needs to nominate 2 more Supreme Court justices - otherwise there's a very good chance of being in the minority after 2020.
Knowing Chuck Schumer, he's going to try to schmooze Trump into going for a moderate nominee for the Kennedy replacement (when Kennedy officially announces).

Really the timeline is less than that. There a real risk of losing the senate in the midterms, Schumer will definitely do the same thing McConnell did and stall the vacant seat until after the presidential election. Yes even if it remains vacant for 2 years.
exactly, which is why if Kennedy decides to retire, I hope he understands the importance of the time constraints at hand.
I think he's become more liberal over time. He might try to wait until Trump's 4th year. It becomes an election issue then too.I thought in the past he has expressed wanting to retire with a GOP president. Late June would be a good time.

RBG could die. Then it would be back to an odd number of justices.
There are already a number of odd Justices.
I was saying if scenario of Kennedy retiring, senate turns blue, Schumer holding seat open until after 2020 election, then RBG dies it’s back to an odd number of justices.

Need to keep the senate this fall!!
Isn't she over due for that!
Damn, was that wrong?
There have been those who suggest she already died and is just being "Weekend at Bernie's" until a Dem gets back in.
Haha. OMG. Lmfao. (I wish I could find out how to do the emojis
I have to turn my android fone sideways and the emoji's are far right
