Liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor opened up on Friday at 
Harvard University about how she has cried after some court decisions.

The Harvard Crimson reported on Sotomayor’s candid admission, which 
happened during an event at which she received a medal recognizing her 
impact on society.

“There are days that I’ve come to my office after an announcement of a 
case and closed my door and cried,” Sotomayor said.

She added, “There have been those days. And there are likely to be 
more.”

CNN noted that Sotomayor did not mention any particular cases that have 
caused her to shed tears.

The justice did acknowledge how there are “moments when I’m deeply, 
deeply sad. And there are moments when, yes, even I feel desperation. 
We all do.”

Sotomayor went on, “But you have to own it. You have to accept it. You 
have to shed the tears, and then you have to wipe them and get up and 
fight some more.”

A justice since 2009, Sotomayor witnessed former President Donald Trump 
lead the charge in creating a 6-3 conservative-majority Supreme Court.

In recent years, the high court has levied significant rulings opposed 
by Sotomayor, including one in 2022 that overturned Roe v. Wade.

Some legal scholars have been pushing for Sotomayor, who is 69 and a 
lifelong diabetic, to step down and give President Joe Biden another 
nominee.

The pressure campaign picked up steam after Sotomayor said in January 
that she was “tired” from her workload.

NBC News reported last month that Senate Democrats were concerned about 
a scenario echoing Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s sudden 
death.

Ginsburg’s passing in September 2020 allowed Trump to nominate one more 
eventual justice — Amy Coney Barrett — in the final months of his 
presidency.

“I think she really has to weigh the competing factors,” Sen. Richard 
Blumenthal (D-CT) told the news outlet. “We should learn a lesson.”

He added, “The old saying — graveyards are full of indispensable 
people, ourselves in this body included.”

Biden is running for a second term, paving the way to a 2020 general 
election rematch against Trump in this year’s contest.

White House spokesman Andrew Bates said Biden “believes that decisions 
to retire from the Supreme Court should be made by the justices 
themselves and no one else.”
