What happened is two of them died, one retired, opening up three spots. One actually died during Obama's term, but the Dems let the Republicans delay the appointment thinking Hillary was a shoe in and then lost that position. Stronger governance and they could've appointed one of their own before Trump. Also RBG dumbly (and selfishly) did not retire under Obama, another Dem misstep out of weakness and unnecessary righteousness.

Some departments in the US government give you a paid time off day every week to use however you want. A lot of people would take every Friday off, or some would stash them for a longer vacation.

It's wild to me how internally the government offers the kind of benefits politicians should've pushed into law a long time ago. It really is "for Me, not for Thee".
