In TLR they're calling RGB a white supremacist.

I told you, they couldn’t even wait a few hours.

Y’all gotta stop with this decorum and “bad taste” nonsense.



These people have proven multiple times that they’ll fall in line.

i dont know if i even give a fukk tbh

if moscow mitch pushes some anti abortion lunatic through before the election, then the dems will win in a landslide and then pack the courts. it sounds like an overall positive to me

This witch Amy Barrett is only 48. She'll be on the court until we're old and gray.

Trump picks them young.

Does anyone think all the Lincoln Project Republicans will jump ship back to Trump to get that court pick?

Before this thread gets any longer, I just want to point out, again, that RBG had 1 black law clerk her entire legal career and refused to let Obama appoint her successor.

Do with that what you will.

Ginsburg, on the other hand, has hired only one African American law clerk in her 25 years on the Supreme Court. This is an improvement from her 13-year tenure on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, when Ginsburg never had any black clerks. When this issue was raised during her Supreme Court confirmation hearings in 1993, Ginsburg said: “If you confirm me for this job, my attractiveness to black candidates is going to improve.” This remains a promise unfulfilled.

The calls for Ginsburg to step down began in 2011 when Randall Kennedy, a Harvard law professor and former clerk to the late Thurgood Marshall, wrote a piece in The New Republic gently urging Ginsburg, then 78, to retire while Obama was in office. (He had suggested the same of Justice Stephen Breyer, now 80.) Kennedy was publicly airing private concerns among Democrats that it could be Ginsburg’s last chance to be replaced by a Democrat.
What the cult of Ruth Bader Ginsburg got wrong

This was her response in 2014:
"Who do you think President Obama could appoint at this very day, given the boundaries that we have? If I resign any time this year, he could not successfully appoint anyone I would like to see in the court," she said. "[The Senate Republicans] took off the filibuster for lower federal court appointments, but it remains for this court. So anybody who thinks that if I step down, Obama could appoint someone like me, they’re misguided."

Y'all are OK with though.

THIS X 1000000000000000000000000000000000000

It’s not enough

The Supreme Court needs to be expanded to like 29 or 39. One person shouldn’t have this much power over the court.

And the federal judiciary needs to be expanded by 200 judges.

Same ppl in here crying are constantly cosigning that lifetime tenure/career politician bullshyt.
RBG should have stepped down years ago.

 

[Cave Savage]

Trump picks them young.

Clinton should have done that instead of picking 30s babies
