The U.S. Navy will name a future ship after the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro announced Thursday.

The T-AO 212 replenishment oiler will be referred to as the USNS Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

“As we close out women’s history month, it is my absolute honor to name the next T-AO after the Honorable Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She is a historic figure who vigorously advocated for women’s rights and gender equality,” Del Toro announced.

Close already-—a T-AO is an oiler/tanker. The wardroom pic of her should be sleeping on watch.

I didn't mean to say that the Ginsberg should be hauling garbage. I meant to say that it should be hauled away AS garbage!

There is a ship named after Harvey Milk and of course the USS Jimmy Carter. Why not name warships after Native American warriors. The USS Crazy Horse has a nice ring to it.

Why? Just why?

Why not? They've named them after Harvey Milk, Thurgood Marshall, Cesar Chavez, Medgar Evers. Why not her?

“T-AO 212 replenishment oiler”

Looks like something you would see on Deadliest Catch, out for Crabs. Seems about right.

Add US Navy to the lengthening list of formerly venerated proud institutions turned into goofy vassals of the left.

But she wasn’t the first female justice on the Supreme Court

Day O’Connor was the first
