    ‘Could be credible’: Speculation ramps up that Harris could be Biden’s Supreme Court pick

    As news broke about Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer retiring, speculation ramped up that President Biden could tap embattled Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him — keeping his promise to appoint a black woman to the high court while opening possibilities of a less politically tainted running mate for 2024.

    Former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Wednesday endorsed the unlikely notion that Harris could get the nomination as a way to end the controversies surrounding her.

    “I think it’s a theory that could be credible,” McEnany said while co-hosting the “Outnumbered” show on Fox News.

    The improbable idea was floated by co-host Harris Faulker amid the breaking reports that Breyer plans to retire after the court recesses at the end of June.

    Biden has said repeatedly he would pick a black woman as his first Supreme Court nominee and Faulkner said that “it’s hard to not to see, at least, [Harris] makes the list.”

    Not happening. This stuff originated on the right, where they are always trying to paint Kamala as a problem for Biden. It fits their "dems in disarray" narrative. And they fear her becoming President. She's staying, and will be Biden's VP on the 2024 ticket. Unless Biden kicks the bucket, then she will head into 24 as Prez.

    There isn't a Democratic black woman in the country Biden could pick as a VP running mate the rightwing would not deem "controversial".

    the White House has already issued a statement which says it will not happen......thus, making it almost a certainty that it will......

    More important is why did imbecile Joe pick that democratic black woman who even Democrats in her home state couldn't bring themselves into support during the primaries? Your foolishness is showing again

    Thank you. And I see I was wrong. The Constitution absolutely spells out how a vacancy in the Vice Presidency is filled. The President nominates one who is confirmed by both houses of Congress. 25th Amendment.

    The post in which I stating the wrong thing will be deleted.
