From NBC News:
Justice Stephen Breyer to retire from Supreme Court, paving way for Biden appointment
Justice Stephen Breyer will step down from the Supreme Court at the end of the current term, according to people familiar with his thinking.
Breyer is one of the three remaining liberal justices, and his decision to retire after more than 27 years on the court allows President Joe Biden to appoint a successor who could serve for decades and, in the short term, maintain the current 6-3 split between conservative and liberal justices.
The confirmation process will be interesting to say the least.
