"You don't know that "

I know what happened to Clarence Thomas after the FBI found nothing...and we are a LOT more polarized now.

"Coney Barrett (I think)???"

I think that's right.

'They don't "need" to get someone bf the midterms, they "want" to get someone before the midterms."

True, I desperately want someone conservative in there, before the midterms, although I feel there's little chance the dems take the senate. If the whole senate was up for re-election that would be different, but the GOP got amazingly lucky with which seats are up.

"I thought it was they wanted someone before the start of the next supreme court session which I thought starts Oct 1?? "

That could be too, that's an astute guess.
