President Joe Biden said yesterday that he has narrowed his search for a Supreme Court nominee to replace the retiring Justice Stephen Breyer to four women, The Hill reports. "The short list are nominees who are incredibly well qualified and documented. They were the honor students, they come from the best universities, they have experience, some on the bench, some in the practice," Biden told NBC News' Lester Holt. "What I've done is I've taken about four people and done a deep dive on them ... to see if there’s anything in the background that would make them not qualified," Biden said. The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that candidate interviews could start next week.
