Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 85, fell in her office at the court Wednesday evening and fractured three ribs, according to a release from the court Thursday.

Yes, the irony!
“Bet a broken rib doesn’t hurt as much as a late term abortion.”
My thoughts exactly...
She could well pull through this and return to the court, but I doubt she will make it to the next president despite her obvious desire to do so. I do know one thing, her replacement’s confirmation hearings will make Kavanaugh’s look like a veritable love fest.
Actually take more walks in the sunshine!
Sounds painful. The left must be freaking out.
Had them done in July. I’ve been able to get back to golfing and square-dancing. Had to give up playing catcher in softball. All-in-all, the best I’ve felt in several years ... thanks.
I feel sorry for her. I broke a couple ribs when I was about 50, and it was the most painful thing I have ever experienced.
If Trump gets to replace her it will be Achduke Ferdinand day.
She's just a place-holder for them - if she's alive at all... 
SC Justices should have one 18 year term. That is long enough. Replace one every 2 years.
Think Gettysburg with hydrogen bombs.
RNC and the Senatorial Election mob had better get their asses out to Florida and Arizona tout suite and stay there until Scott and McSally are in office.
Oh, and after the job is done, get their asses down to Mississippi and stay THERE until Hyde-Smith is in office.
Amy Coney Barrett isn't getting confirmed with only 53 GOP Senators.
I visited dozen of seniors in hospitals and nursing homes for end of life legal matters. I can’t tell you how many of them started with the same sort of fall.
“Oh, Fred and I were doing fine until he slipped on the garage floor and broke his collarbone. That was the first time he went into the hospital before they had to re-admit him because of the mrsa.”
Sounds like there will need to be another invesigation.
Refraining from saying anything negative...
I hope she can get the only the best medical care that hospice can provide.
I wonder if Trump will use this to control the house - I will pick a left leaner (Garland?), if you behave... or, will he not trust them and just bull ahead and go with Amy Barrett?
I hope he goes with Amy.
Ginsberg will never retire - especially while Trump in office
Have to pry her cold bony fingers off the furniture …….
Why is that important? When it happened to me, I was planting flowers, tripped over a shovel, and landed on concrete.
