Heavy News ^ | April 1, 2017 | Wendy Watkins

Just how much influence is President Donald Trump going to have on the U.S. Supreme Court? His administration hasn’t been quiet about its hopes to replace as many as four justices — with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg near the top of the list.

But with rumbling concerns about her health, Ginsburg doesn’t appear to be ready to step down. In fact, the same week she was a no-show at President Trump’s address to Congress, she was in the news for her impressive workout regimen.

Now aged 84, and the senior member of the high court’s four-person liberal wing, Ginsburg has had a series of health issues. Since the 1990s she has suffered two bouts of cancer as well as heart problems.

Here’s what you need to know:

1. She’s the Oldest Supreme Court Justice [snip]

2. She’s Had Cancer Twice, Plus Heart Problems [snip]

3. Her Workout Almost Crushed a 27-Year-Old Reporter [snip]

4. She Likes Being Notorious RBG [snip]

5. She Doesn’t Need the Money [snip]

Let me know when someone delivers a dead fish wrapped in Butcher Paper to the SCOTUS.

Old Ruthie will probably outlive half the Posters on FR.

I’m guessing Jared and Ivanka will instill with the same liberal social values they hold. I guess you want permanent abortion, gay marriage, et al. for the rest of America’s history.

Her Workout Almost Crushed a 27-Year-Old Reporter

That’s not saying much these days. My grandma, if she were alive today, could kick a typical 27 y/o butt with one arm tied behind her back while fixing herself lunch.

Wrong, she can her her clerks do all the work under Kagan’s direction and all she needs to do is show up and not fall asleep too often during oral arguments. She can be a Strom Thurmond or Robert Byrd type zombie and still remain on the USSC.

She thought Hillary was going to win so why retire under Obama? Now she must hang on for the next four years at a minimum.

Actually, when it’s her time, I expect the whole Democrat Party pull a “Weekend at Bernies” with Ginsburg as long as they can.
