It's all political posturing, whether it's the Democrats knowingly putting up Biden as a placeholder for Harris or the Republican majority Senate blocking Obama's choice, Merrick Garland four years ago. The Republican Senate is going to advise and consent Trump's nominee ASAP. This one appointment will shape the highest court in the land for generations. It's going to be hard to beat that accomplishment. Let's hope it is an originalist and McConnell has the votes to confirm his choice.
Trump's statement is more magnanimous than anything said by a Liberal Democrat about him, which only shows what a great man the President really is.
She may have done good things in the past but her present was so far from good. She championed partial birth abortions. How sick is that?
obviously the sociopath didn't write this...he's incapable of praise for others. she was a great woman and an icon for the rest of us. say her name.
Isn't it a shame that it takes a person passing away to see such kind words being spoken
Perhaps if asked President Obama would be willing to take the post.
Very nice!
Wonder how the media will spin this?
#FillTheSeat
🇺🇸 Fill the seat 🇺🇸
Amy Coney Barrett A judge on the US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit, Barrett was on Trump’s shortlist for his second Supreme Court nomination, which ultimately went to Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018. A graduate of Notre Dame University Law School, she clerked for the late conservative Justice Antonin Scalia and then spent two decades as a law professor at Notre Dame. Barrett, 48, is a favorite of the religious right, and her deep ties to her Catholic faith earned her a grilling from Democrats during her confirmation hearings to the federal bench. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein memorably told her: “The dogma lives loudly within you, and that’s a concern.” Barrett responded: “It’s never appropriate for a judge to impose that judge’s personal convictions, whether they arise from faith or anywhere else, on the law.” Having previously written that Supreme Court precedents are not set in stone, the question of whether Barrett would vote to overturn Roe v. Wade would loom large over her nomination. She and her husband, Assistant US Attorney Jesse Barrett, live in Indiana and have seven children.
Praying for her family
This ungodly woman is not mourned around here, did nothing but side with enemies of our constitution, gave liberalism a great boost.
Proven fact, God works in strange ways. He opened this seat to protect us and country from all the evil of the radical liberal fake dems. The president must follow his lead and do his job to secure and protect GOD’s America. God blessed America again and he is not done.
She was definitely a bright start in this country. Prayers for her family in the passing of a great lady.
May God Rest her Soul. She didn't see eye to eye with me, BUT she always carried herself with GRACE! Great Person, and a loss for America!
Rip but even she wasn’t always right nobody is always right god keep her wth u n bless her family,amen
So sorry for your loss, my prayers are with your family !
Good riddance to Ginsburg
Denise Harris
Confirm ACB 🇺🇸
There is no Republican Party of va trump destroyed it it’s now the party of trump and the cult members
And now shes in hell
OPINION BASED ON TRUTH: Biden would be a Disaster for Michigan and all States. "His destructive energy policy would cause unimaginable economic carnage. Michigan would lose more than half a million jobs by 2025, and our economy would shrink by $159 billion. Biden has also promised to repeal President Trump’s middle-income tax cuts “on day one” of his presidency — meaning his first priority would be to raise taxes on the average Michigan resident by over $1,400 per year." Biden's statement he would not tax those under $400,000 is also a lie. Biden's "Covid Plan" is six steps that Trump has already taken, in fact, had the USA kept borders open like Biden wanted when he said it was "xenophobic", another 500,000-1,000,000 MORE people would have died. Biden lost 240,000 manufacturing jobs while Trump added 400,000 manufacturing jobs. And while Biden claims Trump would cut SSN, it is actually Biden who has a 40-year record of voting against SSN, Medicare, and Medicaid. In fact Biden's 'Medicare for all' would cost 180-million people insurance. Biden is simply a danger to all who are honest about the kitchen table issues of this election. www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/2020/05/09/opinion-biden-would-disaster-michigan/3077390001/?fb...
Tonight, our country and commonwealth mourn the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the second woman in U.S. history to sit on the highest court of our land. As a Justice of the United States Supreme Court, she served during tumultuous times and persevered through numerous medical challenges. Hers was a life of service, culminating with nearly three decades on the high court.
Our nation now turns to the task of selecting a new Justice, and it is incumbent upon our President and Senate to fulfill their Constitutional obligations to nominate and confirm a new Justice with all deliberate speed.
May she rest in peace.
We need a replacement now!
Well I hope she doesn’t Rest In Peace with all those babies she killed and enjoyed killing. I was adopted here in the USA so thankful to have been born in the 90’s and not in today’s century!
Rest in peace RBG. Although I have not agreed with your views of the Constitution and your rulings, I give you all the respect you deserve as a Justice and a defender of equal rights.
Did not agree with her politics. Hope she prayed for forgiveness of her sins and accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior before she passed away.
I was never a fan, but still she had an enviable work ethic and intellect. I'm just not sad to see her go. More sad for her family really.
RiP RBG. May God help us find a constitutional replacement Justice.
I'm sorry for her family and pray she made things right with God. She should have retired years ago...and now she will stand before God and be judged for all of her decisions. Lord have mercy, I pray she made things right before she died.
She based her decisions on International Jurisprudence, and tried to influence the court to do the same. She took an oath to base decisions on the Constitution, not international law. Thank God she did not succeed in in her roderic of changing how the court makes it's decisions.
The loss of a true champion of civil rights and justice. RIP. If there are ANY patriots left that understand how to put country over party, you KNOW that support of the Supreme Court relies on this nomination occurring AFTER the election. Your majority leader agrees: "The American people are perfectly capable of having their say on this issue, so let's give them a voice. Let's let the American people decide. The Senate will appropriately revisit the matter when it considers the qualifications of the nominee the next president nominates, whoever that might be," Mitch McConnell March 2016
May she Rest In Peace! She did not represent my values... my sincere condolences to her family!
Oh please just stop. Ginsburg was a rabid judicial activist masquerading as a jurist. Unless you can name a positive intended consequence of her participation on the court, just stop with the sanctimonious doublespeak. Don’t be afraid to label a villain as a villain.
She was a bitter woman toward Republicans to the very end. I read that she hoped a new replacement was not nominated till after the election.
Well now we had better replace her quickly..... with someone who understands the constitution & will not make laws from the bench.
Did not agree with her. But she was dedicated to her job and Country and must be respected for it. Bravely fought cancer to the end. RIP Justice.
I vote for Judge Jeanine Pirro to fill the seat. RIP Ruthy.
To my knowledge (I am not a historian), she is the first to try and select the ideological bent of her successor, which is not Constitutional.
May not have agreed with all of her choices but she was a very STRONG female presence in our society and I have to respect her for that!
Her replacement on the court should fall to the winner of the election in 2 months. It's only fair... in 2016 they didn't let Obama replace Scalia.
Both sides of the aisle are drinking tonight. But not in the same way.
Please...let this woman rest in peace. All I see everywhere is people politicizing her death. RIP Justice Ginsberg.
I hope she was on a different level with the lord than the level she was on while speaking of him. RIP. Hopefully your heart was in a different place than your votes were
Well, she won't be able to destroy our country anymore. What she has done will have severe consequences for many generations. I am not a fan of hers but I hope she is at peace.
Cancer sucks. Now it’s time to get a constitutionalist on to the Supreme Court.
She has answered to God for her mislead deeds and I honor his decision.
Erase all thes evil ones from office such as shumer.polosie.and the others that are out to destroy this country
