I don’t know - and can’t be arsed to find out - the ages of your current Supremes, but I’m sure several of them would be replaceable.

Only three of them (Alito, Thomas, and Sotomayor) and one of them was an Obama appointee. Though Roberts will be hitting that milestone in a few months.
It doesn’t really matter who appointed them. And who’s to say it has to be 70? That’s what it is in New Zealand. The US retires commercial airline pilots at 65.
