I'm hearing that Thomas or another one of the Judges may be about to retire. It wouldn't surprise me since he's indicated that he wants to retire. This may be wrong though. But it would make sense. From this article.
Pure Speculation
Two Supreme Court vacancies?
Most of us can only handle so much drama in the news cycle in one day. But when CNN reported that both of the putative front-runners for Supreme Court would be in Washington tonight — Judges Thomas Hardiman and Neil Gorsuch — someone figured out a way to add a bit more.
Another explanation for two judges en route to DC would be a surprise retirement...— Phil Kerpen (@kerpen) January 31, 2017
Mind you, I don't have any reason to think this is true. But it is quite strange that Trump would bring both judges in, as if we were going to have the nation vote by text on who would be nominated.
