Purely hypothetical.... Just a small wish list...

Who would you want to find in that expansion...

Adam Schiff
Katie Porter
Nice young Pete Buttiegge
Amy Klobuchar

Obama to replace Scalia.

Great question! Does Pete have a legal background? I thought he was a medic in Afghanistan. Any Karadeniz Oct 2020 #2

But he's not a lawyer. I think that would be important for a SCOTUS Justice.

I like the other ones you have named, though.

I like where they are now (except Katie Porter or Eric Swalwell for Kamala's seat). Buttigieg will have an important placement in the Biden administration, and President Obama is doing great things in his private life.

Edit: maybe Preet Bharara or Sally Yates (though I can see one of them being AG).
