Washington, DC is abuzz with talk this weekend that President Donald Trump may soon have another chance to nominate a judge to the highest court in the land.

The Supreme Court enters its final week of work before a long summer hiatus with action expected on the Trump administration’s travel ban and a decision due in a separation of church and state case that arises from a Missouri church playground.

The biggest news of all, though, would be if Justice Anthony Kennedy were to use the court’s last public session on Monday to announce his retirement.

To be sure, Kennedy has given no public sign that he will retire this year and give Trump his second high court pick in the first months of his administration.

Kennedy’s departure would allow conservatives to take firm control of the court.

But Kennedy turns 81 next month and has been on the court for nearly 30 years.

Justice Kennedy, who is known as a moderate Republican, was nominated by then-President Ronald Reagan in 1987.
