Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Supreme Court justice, trailblazing feminist, and the closest thing to a folk hero the high court has ever seen, has died at the age of 87.

The mods didn’t post it right away. I suspected because the only source at hand was CNN. So I did another post from the Daily Beast.
I was hoping she would hang in there until the day after President Trump is reelected.
Election day is a repeat of Bush/Gore 2000 coming down to one state. Because of the mess with mail in voting, the election comes down to something like should late received main in ballots be counted in which case Biden would win. Case goes before one of the newly minted Trump lower court judges, he rules they are invalid giving the win to Trump. Goes to the Supreme Court, Robert's sides with the liberal resulting in a 4-4 tie, which means the lower court ruling stands. Then the left goes totally ape s**t.....
46 days to shape the court for decades.
......................................................
Win or lose, Trump0 can do it until Jan. 20
The thing that’s disturbing is that she was so mean that she and her handlers all pretended that she was fine, just for political reasons. Disgusting. Just like the RATs that are promoting Biden, who we all know won’t be President. You can see Harris’s glee that she thinks she’s going to be prez. The people propping up Biden are worse, because Joe really doesn’t even know any more that he is being led down the path.
May his wife and handlers burn in hell.
Ding dong...
Civil War II ??
Trump definitely hast to nominate a woman
And he has quite a few good ones hes already said he would pick from
The ratio of grave dancing on each side is decidedly in favour of the left. My comment is to say nothing.
RIP/MEMORY ETERNAL.
Mourners’ Kaddish
Glorified and sanctified be God’s great name throughout the world
which He has created according to His will.
May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days,
and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon;
and say, Amen.
May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.
Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored,
adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He,
beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that
are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.
May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us
and for all Israel; and say, Amen.
He who creates peace in His celestial heights,
may He create peace for us and for all Israel;
and say, Amen.
RIP.
Even if she isn’t replaced immediately, her passing swings the Court immediately to the right. Roberts, at most, could force a tie. What happens then?
Well, this is going to be a heck of a season
That will help President Trump get a new conservative.
Unfortunately that rule came immediately to mind.

Dont expect the Truth.
Her clerks have been writing her opinions for 2 years.

“acceptance of Jesus christ”
.......
I wish, but I think she was very Jewish. Anyway God bless her heart for her talent and loyalty to her causes.
folk hero?
That issue will become clear when Donald Trump announces whether he will announce a candidate before the election. One thing is clear, the question of who will change the balance on the court will certainly energize the left. The question is will the appointment by Trump before the election so energize the left as to permit them to take the focus away from Joe Biden's obvious inadequacies and put it on resisting of Trump's appointment and rendering that into a new crusade.
My tentative view is that the left will react mightily in any case and Trump must do what he has done consistently in his presidency, move forthrightly on behalf of conservatism. If he fails reelection he might nevertheless have secured the court for decades.
It is not to be forgotten that the appointment of a true conservative can also stimulate the Republican base. It might even blunt the opposition of many educated suburban women who have posed a grave threat to the president's reelection if a female is appointed in Ginsburg's place.
In any case Mitch McConnell has promised to shepherd an appointment even before the election or the inauguration of a new President. Let the war begin!
