 @B9DVZWZ from Louisiana  answered…6mos6MO

Only if the judge takes a cognitive test every 2 years after the age of 70

 @B8Y3Z34 from Louisiana  answered…7mos7MO

no they should only be in a judge as long as they don't have any risk of mental illness linked to age

 @B8XG6YR from Louisiana  answered…7mos7MO

I believe Judges should be forced out by term limits

 @BCHNCQY from Louisiana  answered…3mos3MO

I feel it depends on the health of that Judge if they are 68 and they are not well they should be able to retire

 @BBWJRNR from Louisiana  answered…4mos4MO

I believe Judges should be exchanged at the age of 60. Being the maximum age to serve. That and they should be sworn in under the authority of the bible and Catholic church to be honest and act within the law of God.

 @B9S7V5N from Louisiana  answered…5mos5MO

Only if they are still fit and mentally stable enough to

 @B9RS7P5 from Louisiana  answered…5mos5MO

Yes, and you can also retire at any other ages from 30-75 years

 @B9RRZK5 from Louisiana  answered…5mos5MO

we should keep the age at 70 because I feel that's a decent age for someone to retire

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
