"Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will miss next week’s court sessions and work from home..."

I smell a rat. Is there any way that it can be verified that it's she who's 'doing the work' and not another stinkin' liberal hack?

How long will she be able to phone-it-in like this?

Same with absentee ballots. Fake voting.

Really, the clerks usually do much of the work for SCOTUS justices, or so people have been saying for years.

I wonder what percentage of the legal writing is actually done by any of the Justices. I sometimes think the best thing we could do is strip most of the staff, leaving the Supreme Court with a shared secretary to answer the phones. If they had to do their own research and drafting, how many 80 year old Justices do you really think we'd have?

Then we do the same thing to Congress ….

It's called Supreme Court Seat #6.

Corpseburg has 6 law clerks who are voting her Court seat:

The ones for 2019 & 2020 are the actual Supreme Court "junior justices".

What a time to be alive! Watching President Trump show us exactly what's behind the curtain in OzDC.
