Asked if GOP would try to block nominee, he told KY reporters: “We don’t even know who the nominee is yet. So that’s something the president has the opportunity to make should there be a vacancy and Justice Breyer will determine when and if there’s a vacancy.” — PolitiTweet.org

“Well, I’m afraid to put the cart before the horse. Justice Breyer has not made an official announcement and he’s entitled to do that whenever he chooses to and when he does that I’ll have a response to his long and distinguished career,” McConnell said — PolitiTweet.org

Ruth Bader Ginsburg died on Sept. 18, 2020 -- and Barrett was nominated on Sept. 26, 2020. She was confirmed Oct. 26, 2020 -- just days before the election — PolitiTweet.org

Senate sources also say that the Senate can act on the Biden nominee before Justice Stephen Breyer officially steps down from the court. So Democrats expect to hold hearings and votes before Breyer officially steps aside at the end of his term. — PolitiTweet.org
Manu Raju @mkraju
New -- Schumer is looking at a quick timeframe to confirm Biden's nominee to the court -- and he will follow a similar timeline that Republicans employed to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the court in 2020, per a source familiar with this thinking. — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin voted for Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. He opposed Amy Coney Barrett because her confirmation vote was too close to election. Susan Collins voted for Kagan/Sotomayor. So did Lindsey Graham Murkowski voted against Kavanaugh (though she's up for re-election) — PolitiTweet.org
Manu Raju @mkraju
Dems start off with good chance of getting Breyer's replacement confirmed. Since GOP changed filibuster rules on SCOTUS nominees in 2017, a simple majority is all that's needed. Manchin has long deferred to presidents' nominees; Sinema tends to vote for Biden nominees — PolitiTweet.org
