Politically expedient enough to get appointed, combined with young enough to preserve a potentially 3+ decade long seat.
Speaking of which, it seems like Ketanji Brown Jackson is the popular name circulating but Leondra Kruger from the California Supreme Court seems like a Biden pick to me.
She's related to former speaker of the house Paul Ryan 🤔 (obviously not by blood) (the first Lady)
I do wonder how many red flags it'll set off with the left that she's married to a white dude, and is related to a former Republican speaker of the house
I imagine, but don't know. That this also could result in her getting any support from the right, which could be needed with this whole 5050 split thing
