REPORT: JUSTICE KENNEDY MAY ANNOUNCE RETIREMENT FROM SUPREME COURT

"The announcement would give President Trump the opportunity to replace Kennedy โ€” who leans right but serves as the ideological center of the court โ€” with a more conservative justice. A second Trump appointment of a justice along the ideological lines of Neil Gorsuch would put the balance of the court at five conservative justices to four liberal justices.

 

โ€œReplacing Kennedy would be even more historic and consequential: a momentous chance to edge the Court right, since Kennedy is the center of the Court โ€” the one most willing to listen to both sides,โ€ Allen writes in his politics newsletter. โ€œOn a controversial case, both sides pitch to him. Itโ€™s been called โ€˜Kennedyโ€™s Court.'โ€

 

Kennedy has sat on the court nearly 30 years, making him the longest serving of the current justices."
