Ok so is there really anything wrong with Sonia Sotomayor's physical or mental health?

Or is it just racism and misogyny that their party veteran insider white man gets a pass for 5 years of red flags but a Latina is told she needs to retire at age 70 after only 15 years on the Court?

I've been saying for about 4 years that she needs to retire so that we can replace her while Biden is still in office. Maybe she'll live to 150, but her health isn't great and the supreme Court is already really stacked.

But like everything else in the Biden admin, he dithered and waited and now it's too late
