Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passes away at 87

[Skooby]

She didn't want to step down when Obama was in charge ... hope that documentary was worth it

She assumed Hillary was a lock to win.

 

[Serious]

She was selfish. You just knew this was gonna happen.

You know it’s bad when 3rivers is talking shyt

ill say this brehs: that tweet from murkowski confirms that it wont happen before the election. collins, grassley, and just 1 more and they wont have the votes

SO

if trump loses, mitch 1000 percent tries it in the lame duck session. so if the dems win the WH and senate, they openly challenge him that if he does it then they'll pack the courts. a lame duck justice will be seen as cheap and pathetic, by the way

the dems can still get out of this

 

[LurkMoar]

you aint shyt for this



gonna fukk around and get banned

John Roberts keeps their asses in check. That's in danger now.

yea facts. 6-3 would be

 

[GhostoftheMan]

tbh this was a matter of when and not if. she has been in and out. all we can hope is that enough republicans choose not to vote on the nom (which is 100% not likely) or the dems get majority and make more justices (which is a gamble)

 

[nyknick]

Good thing Chuck Schumer has Janet Reno looking neo-lib running against McConnel to put pressure on him

 

[LurkMoar]

Its easy to say the noble thing when theres no pressure, its go time now

 

[Tony D'Amato]

So how many republicans do we need to say no appointments till after inauguration?

Murkowski seems to be the 1st to commit to no vote. Susan collins bish azz? Mitt? Who else will do the honorable thing?

 

[the cac mamba]

i wonder if biden revives his promise to put the first black woman on the supreme court. could be seen as a desperately needed healing moment this country needs

 

[LurkMoar]

yea facts. 6-3 would be

6-3 means they dunking all over uterus

 

[the next guy]

RIP

This is a fukking disaster
Dems don’t have the numbers to block this appointment, plus this will energize the republican base. Unlike dem voters they actually care about the courts. This will have generational implications. Any progressive policy that had a chance to pass will get challenged and most likely get stuck down. Got damn it

Yup, I already know people who hate Trump on everything yet are still willing to vote for him, "Because of the Supreme Court".

This will help them on Election Day.
