Little Jack was in such a hurry to find Casto because something big happened last night, and the chief justice of the Supreme Court, William Habs, suddenly fell seriously ill and went to the hospital.

William is 81 years old, and it stands to reason that it is not uncommon for such an old man to get sick and go to the hospital, even if it is seriously ill, after all, he is already so old.

But when this old man is the chief justice of the Supreme Court, then everything becomes different. You must know that there are 9 justices of the Supreme Court of the Federation, and a chief justice is composed of 8 judges.

And these nine people are not only the highest adjudicators of the United States Court, but they are all for life. In other words, if they do not resign, these people can be the supreme adjudicators for the rest of their lives.

Since the establishment of the Supreme People's Court, few judges have voluntarily resigned, so every time a judge is elected and his successor is basically to wait until the death of his predecessor to take office.

For such an important power clash at the top of the pyramid, even if a certain threshold enters the twilight years, or even when life enters the countdown, people on all sides have long been prepared.

But every time the election and the successor are ready to take the throne, the various games are still unimaginably fierce. This time, it is Chief Justice William who pays equal attention, and the shock from all walks of life in the United States can be imagined for a while.

"What do you want me to do?" Casto draped a blanket over his body, and the air conditioning in the room was so full that he felt a little cold after being doused with ice water.

"How did you get into contact with the judges in Washington, D.C., on the grounds of some lawsuits?" asked little Jack.

The unique laws of the United States have made many lawyers or judges very famous, and some even have a focus type than celebrities. Among the groups of judges in various states and regions, the judges of Washington, D.C. are undoubtedly a very special existence.

The judges of this place are only so special, and not just because Washington, D.C. is the capital of the country. Also because the judges in Washington, D.C., are known as the cradle of Supreme Court justices.

The vast majority of the Supreme Court's nine justices were selected from a pool of judges in Washington, D.C. Therefore, once the Supreme Court justices pass away, the judges in Washington, D.C., can be said to be candidates with great hope.

"We've only been working together for less than two months, and most of my time has been spent on the you did before, trying all kinds of ways to leave evidence on yourself. I've been to Washington twice, what do you think of the results of my friendship?" Casto looked at little Jack.

Brother Xiao Jie couldn't help but touch his nose a little embarrassed, he knew that he was in a hurry. But there was no way to suddenly the chief justice was seriously ill, and the news was released too suddenly, so he was not in a hurry. After all, it was the chief justice of the Supreme Court, one of the small groups at the top of the pyramid of power in the United States.

Seeing that little Jack calmed down, although the room was broken into in the middle of the night, and a bucket of ice water was poured on him. But he understands that he and little Jack are now grasshoppers tied to a rope.

Casto groaned and said, "It's really useless to go to the judges in Washington, D.C., right now. Mr. President has several years left in his term, and his poll rating has been very high.

Therefore, even if Judge William did not bear this illness and died, then the position of Chief Justice is estimated to be personally appointed by Mr. President. As for the current situation in the country, as long as he opens his mouth to nominate it, it is impossible for the Senate to oppose it.

So instead of looking at the judges in Washington, D.C., who is more promising, you should go straight to the person that our president, Mr. President, likes the most. ”

It is true that the justices of the Supreme Court are for life and have the power to veto all kinds of bills, even presidential bills. But before taking office, the president has a certain say in who can sit in this position, and the Senate also has the right to decide. Because they can veto the nomination of the president.

In short, you don't have the power of a justice until you sit in that position. Whether or not you can sit on it must be approved by the president and then approved by the Senate.

"Do you have any good suggestions?" asked little Jack.

Although it was decided to bet on the next president, this did not prevent him from cooperating with this president. However, in the past, he could still talk to Mr. President on an equal footing, but now he has been declining because of the consortium behind him in recent years.

When facing Mr. President again, there is no doubt that he is not as confident as before. However, as a consortium that still exists, there is still a lot of room for cooperation.

After all, although the financial resources of the consortium have declined badly in recent years, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. The consortium still has representation in the House of Councillors, and the number is not one or two.

Compared with those old conglomerates in the east who have been getting stronger in recent years, the consortium behind him may be at a disadvantage in terms of number and power control. But it's enough to bring these people out and talk to the president.

"Start with the team of lawyers around him, whether it is the current consultant who helps him with legal issues, or the team of lawyers, or even the legal people who helped him in the last election, they may be one of the candidates.

Of course, if there are such legal figures, and they have become judges in Washington, D.C., then they need to pay more attention. Other...... I can't think of any other possibilities for the time being. Castor spoke after a moment of silence.

Don't think about how fair and just the laws of the United States are, as the president nominates his cronies to sit in that position, this is a very common operation.

Even if that person sits in that position, as a justice, it is impossible for him to obey orders as he is now, and he will express some of his own opinions, and even some opinions will go against him.

But with the foundation of the previous close relationship, the two parties will definitely be able to come up with a very harmonious relationship, and there are some conveniences that everyone acquiesces to. So these justices will only appear among the people that Mr. President favors, which is the power of Mr. President. And the current shrewdness of Mr. President, at this time, it is obvious that he will not be brain-dead to propose that the opponent's favored personnel come to power.

"I'll find these people, you or I'll follow up later. Little Jack nodded, very satisfied with Casto's guess, because basically the candidate didn't run in this circle.

"It's still too short, it's not easy. Castor said with a frown.

He didn't think that the things he was analyzing would become some top secret, only these people in the room now knew about it, and no one else would know about it.

He can analyze this possibility, and other people can also analyze it, is it true that those politicians' staff are vegetarians?

Therefore, at this time, the purpose of contacting these legal professionals is obviously more conspicuous than the sun on a sunny day. Not to mention the price to pay, it may not achieve the desired effect.

"Time is a bit tight, so you have to hurry up. William could die at any moment, and we don't have much time to waste.

And although time is tight, this matter is not without room for operation. After all, we are a consortium, and Mr. President does have the right to nominate and even have some decision-making power.

But this power of nomination and decision-making is not exclusive to Mr. President alone. He still has his opponents, and if he has opponents, he needs helpers.

I think we're going to be a good helper for Mr. President, and you see that's the premise that we can cooperate. Little Jack spread his hands, and the serious expression on his face gradually relaxed.

"There is indeed a basis for cooperation, and now you better pray that William can live a little longer. This way you can have more time to negotiate with Mr. President and get more benefits. ”

Casto shrugged, "Is there anything else? I'm going to sleep without anything else, and I'm going to call a few more hot chicks, do you need to order one for you too?"

Little Jack stood up and tidied up his clothes, looked at the table and the illegal drugs littered on the ground and frowned, "Before I still need you, you'd better cherish your body and live well, otherwise even if you die, the consequences are not something you can bear." ”

Casto, who had originally reached for the marijuana cigarette roll on the table, still had an inquiring look on his face, and seemed to say 'do you want to have one together', his expression instantly froze, and his outstretched hand stopped.

Little Jack sneered and glanced at Castor and turned around and walked out of the room, the bodyguard behind him politely closed the door, and the room fell silent for a while.

......

After the meeting between Barcelona and the club's senior management, Yang Dongxu, who was about to go to dinner, received a call from the United States. Hearing the news on the phone, I couldn't help but shudder.

Then he shook his head and hung up the phone, "You really look up to me, and you actually came to ask my opinion for such a thing." I have a Mao opinion, I can't even interfere in the seat of the Senate, let alone the candidate for justice. ”

It was the Kennedy family who called, asking him what he thought of the justice's successor.

How else can you read it, naturally you can read it with a newspaper, lie down, or sit and read. Anyway, I'm qualified to participate in anything, but it's true that this matter has a lot of implications. Although I don't have the ability to get involved, I can do something else by taking advantage of this opportunity.

For example, he is not qualified to participate in this matter, but Little Jack and the Kennedy family are certainly qualified to participate. So at this time, it is a good time to exchange this matter for some other resources.

But if you want the 'power' in the hands of these two families to help him exchange for some other resources, this price will definitely not be too low. So this phone call asked him what he thought and understood that it was okay for him to bid as he was willing to bid.

"Is there something wrong?" Li Fuzhen looked at Yang Dongxu, who hung up the phone, and walked over standing in a daze.

"It's not a big deal, by the way, Joan said that he was going to organize a drinking party tomorrow. At that time, some celebrities from the upper class of Barcelona and government officials will be invited to participate, so you should prepare in advance to accompany me. Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

"What kind of gifts do I need to prepare?"

There is no custom in the West to go with money, but if you go to a friend's house to attend a banquet or something, bringing a small gift can be regarded as a kind of respect for the host's family.

Gift exchanges are also very popular in the West, for example, if you move to a new house, if you don't invite a neighbor to a meal or a small gift, these people will look at you all day long.

"Joan has a daughter who is in high school, you can buy a Dongxu Technology's latest MP4 and give it to her. ”

When giving gifts, the price of the gift can be lower, but it must be sincere and meaningful, so that the host will like it more. Gifts for children with children at home are undoubtedly more pleasing than gifts for adults.
