Biden Proposes to Replace Supreme Court with Cast of Hamilton
He’s not going to miss his shot

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer is set to announce his retirement, allowing President Joe Biden to appoint a successor.
Biden pledged to appoint the first black woman to the Supreme Court during his presidential campaign. But like so many times before, he’s now opting out for a far more disappointing solution.
He’s replacing the entire Supreme Court with the cast of Hamilton.
“I think it’s a wonderful idea!” endorsed Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. “Everyone knows I love performative politics!”
Experts say it’s an attempt to energize loyal Democrats – boring neoliberals who aren’t yet annoyed by Lin Manuel Miranda.
Critics of Joe Biden say his decision is “outdated” and “out-of-touch.” Critics of Hamilton say, “Lin Manuel Miranda talks weird.”
There are questions on whether a president is even allowed to do this. Can Biden appoint a musical cast to the Supreme Court?
“Of course, I can!” answers the self-named Uncle-in-Chief. “What else am I going to waste my executive power on? Forgiving student loans?”
“Come on, man”, Biden said as he put on his Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses. Sunglasses that, in some way, represent Biden and Hamilton themselves. Cool in 2015, but irritating now.
