The news that Ruth Bader Ginsburg was treated for pancreatic cancer raised the possibility of a Supreme Court opening within the next year.
The 86-year-old Ginsburg's health has been declining for years, to where the last year has felt like a bad remake of the 1989 Weekend at Bernie's movie. Instead of enjoying her golden years in retirement, Ginsburg has been propped up and hidden in the hopes of holding the seat until a Democrat is elected.
The always elegant Michael Moore, who previously placed a Ginsburg doll atop a Christmas tree, summed up the Democrat zeitgeist when he tweeted, "HOLYMOTHEROFRBG!! EVERYBODY, RIGHT THIS SECOND, JOIN A MOVEMENT, CAMPAIGN, GRASS ROOTS GROUP -WHATEVER - AND WORK NONSTOP BTWN RIGHT NOW & NOV 2020!"
The Left is already manning the barricades. The resulting hearing will make the Brett Kavanaugh fiasco, a dark moment in U.S. history, look like a charming affair. In the event that President Donald Trump nominates Amy Coney Barrett, as many conservatives hope, this hearing will be a preview of the Apocalypse.
The rise of hatred on the Left, aided by years of persistent media bias and leftist propaganda, has created a rolling tidal wave of hate ready to crash on shore in violence. The two most likely triggering events that would cause that crash are the re-election of President Trump and the next opening on the Supreme Court, particularly to fill Ginsburg's seat. It's an increasingly good bet that the latter will come first.
The Democrats are telegraphing they will go scorched earth to fight Barrett, and Senator Chuck Schumer will appeal to President Trump to prevent her nomination. Trump should politely decline.

PDJT will nominate a woman. The hypocrisy will be fun to watch.
This will make Thomas & Kavanaugh seem like nothing:
An amazing thing just to contemplate.
Biggest smear in history.
“placed a Ginsburg doll atop a Christmas tree”
The Left is too weird and childish to win.
But in the end it’s the votes that matter.
And Trump won’t pull a nominee so easily.
I guess the Me Too movement will have to stand down for this one.
RE: This will make Thomas & Kavanaugh seem like nothing:
They already tried to smear Amy Conley Barret when she was nominated for the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ( to no avail ).
I wonder what thing they will fabricate next ... Are they going to dig up some hidden skeleton from 30 years ago?
We have been anticipating a “wave of violence” from the left for at least 50 of the years I have been alive. Why do they think we bought half a billion firearms and trillions of bullets? IMHO, we are pretty well prepared and in fact, some of us realize this is exactly where our “hope for the future” lies. Please, throw us in that briar patch.
RE: PDJT will nominate a woman. The hypocrisy will be fun to watch.
It’s looking like Amy Coney Barrett.
"Bites the heads off puppies while cackling with glee..! A whore, you ask..? Pulls MORE trains than AmTrak, CHOO CHOO, here she comes, the drunk, slutty locomotive...!! Beats up her kids on a regular basis, hitting them over their heads with Bibles, 'No More Wire Coathangers, EVER..!' THAT'S her..!"
A “war”. Blah blah blah. It’s not a war. It’s a judicial confirmation.
Deep State probably digging up and or creating dirt on all possible conservative nominees as we speak.
Just like to point out no such vacancy exists.
Respectfully disagree. It's way more than just a judicial confirmation.
We need a real solid conservative to theoretically give a 6-3 conservative court.
BUT with Roberts it would probably be more like 5-4 with him being the so called swing vote.
I honestly believe that this last bout of cancer was the catalyst for their threat against the court. They can see what is coming down, even though her illness was not yet made public when the threat was made.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: This is gonna be a whopper of an interesting/fun/scary/gamechanging year. Keep your powder dry.
RE: Just like to point out no such vacancy exists.
Not yet. But the Dems ANTICIPATE such a vacancy in the near future before the end of Trump’s first term, that’s the reason for the frenzy.
I’d guess that we will be seeing AntiFa for sure and wouldn’t be too surprised to see blood before this is over.
Two words: Cocaine Mitch.
The idiot left has interrupted his dinner, harassed his wife, tried to keep him from boarding his flight in DC...
Gotta be Cruz. He has the campaigners gene and the next nominee will need it. The woman is something you don’t hit but do you think that will stop the left?
