Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Monday that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will lie in state in National Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capitol. She will be the first woman to ever do so. She will also lie in repose at the Supreme Court, it was announced by the court.
Pelosi said the ceremony for Ginsburg will be held Friday, Sept. 25. It will be by invitation only, because of the coronavirus. Rosa Parks lay in honor at the U.S. Capitol, a distinction extended to private citizens, as opposed to government officials like Ginsburg. Ginsburg will also be the first Jewish person to lie in state at the U.S. Capitol. For reference, thirty-three people have lain in state at the Captol, all men. It is an honor typically extended to presidents, congressmen or military leaders. The most recent to lie in state were Democrats – Rep. Elijah Cummings and John Lewis both civil rights leaders, in 2019 and 2020 respectively.

Sandra Day (the first woman - nominated by a REPUBLICAN) had retired, and so wasn’t a government official when she passed away. Ruth Buzzy hung on bitterly until the very end.
Why?
Uhg! These filthy subhumans and their freaking corpse parade!
Time will pass. She is gone.
LOL

Rosa Parks laid in Honor, not in State.
oops - I guess I am wrong - she is still alive. But... the internet!
Schrödinger’s Rosa.
It would make for fantastic Karma if RBG’s behavior regarding her failure to retire, would undo any of the leftism she’d ever accomplished. She was enormously bitter, political, and self centered.... a true villain. She’s in a much better place now (for us), far more deserving...
Democrats lie at the Capitol all the time.
We generally don’t bury people alive
(She is 90 and still going)
I’m sure quite a few women have lain there, not sure you would call it “in state”.
So...she was Jewish.
No one ever questioned her dogma?
I thought Jewish funerals and burials occurred quickly.
Boris passes away, much to the relief of his family. At the funeral, the priest talks about what a great man he was, good to his family, kind and generous.
Mrs Boris elbows her son.
"Charlie take a look in that box, make sure that's your father in there."
The media and Rats of the Left would have you believe she was a modern day Joan D’Arc, a regular Mother Teresa.
Now she is just one more Clinton boot licker, used up, like the institutions that worship at the foot of Ba’al.
Take her to Four Corners and she can lie in four states.
O’Connor brought her dementia husband to work. Then retired to Care for him. He got so bad she put him in a Care facility where he fell in love with another patient. He didn’t remember his wife.
So I guess she was Jewish In Name Only.
Jewish tradition is to bury the person within 24 hours of death if at all possible.
