‘Of course, we learn today from sources that the White House hopes to nominate someone by July 9th’

RUSH EXCERPT:

COLLINS: "That's right, just 24 hours after justice Anthony Kennedy announced that he is going to retire, the president is already meeting with senators who will be key votes in confirming his next Supreme Court nominee. Of course, we learn today from sources that the White House hopes to nominate someone by July 9th. That is very soon. A date that's fast approaching and a date that will come before Anthony Kennedy has officially even retired on July 31st. But now we do know that the president met with several people tonight that will be key votes. The Democrats, three of them who voted to confirm Neil Gorsuch, senator Heitkamp, senator don Lee and Joe Manchin. Also two key Republican votes, senator Susan Collins and senator Lisa murkowski. Two votes that will be very crucial on this course. Conversations are coming into play about whether or not this next Supreme Court justice could be a factor in overturning roe versus wade. The president did meet with those senators as well as Joe grass lea of Iowa to discus his next Supreme Court pick. He said it's going to come off of that list of 25 people they released in the fall. There they are there on the screen. Those are going to be people, don, who essentially decide the fate of the Supreme Court for the next several decades."
