Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan urges Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to retire so that President Biden can nominate another liberal justice. Hasan argues that with Trump leading in swing states and Democrats at risk of losing their majority, it is crucial to prevent history from repeating itself. Hasan's call for retirement is met with discussion on CNN's show, questioning the Democrats' ability to learn from past mistakes.
Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan called on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to retire on Monday so that President Biden could nominate another liberal justice to replace her, as former President Trump maintains leads in swing states ahead of the 2024 election . CNN host Jake Tapper asked the panelists during his show on Tuesday if they agreed with Hasan's argument.

Sotomayor will turn 70 in June,' Hasan wrote in a column for The Guardian. 'I have PTSD from 2020, I think the Democrats didn‘t learn lessons. Look, what are we talking about, abortion rights.
