Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died at 87. - 🦀

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
It significantly damages his boon too... people might rally behind a shortlist, but they can't rally behind the general idea of "Get a justice in", not with a lot of enthusiasm which is exactly what he needs.
Add to that him having bad days at this point in time where they were putting a lid on his campaign by 8:30am. The most important thing to happen in his election and he's out of it early in the morning.

When this news broke initially I thought Don would have to be careful with pushing ahead and it igniting democrat support, turns out they are so demoralized and their representative is so sleepy that it's not much of an issue. What are they going to do, burn things down? They have been doing that for months.
 
RBG on her deathbed according to the media:

But tbh I think the granddaughter made it up. The media just ate it all up because they're so dishonest.

Her granddaughter is an abortion lawyer with a bug up her ass about the Supreme Court making Handmaid's Tale real:


Clara will protect and expand access to reproductive care, particularly for low-income women, using a variety of innovative legal and advocacy mechanisms, at a critical time when there is a substantial risk that the Supreme Court could decimate the right to an abortion.

Today, the right of women to obtain a legal abortion is in more danger than it has been in at least a generation. There is strong reason to believe that the newly constituted Supreme Court will uphold virtually any restriction on abortion access that comes before it, including those that would close clinics forcing women to travel hundreds of miles to other states in order to access safe reproductive care. The Court can make abortion as good as illegal for millions of American women, particularly low-income women and young women, even without overruling Roe v. Wade.

If RBG was demented enough to believe her Supreme Court seat was a family heirloom she could leave to the Democrats in her will, she could've said so in public or in a written statement. She didn't, but we're supposed to take an activist lawyer's word for it that she TOTES whispered this while dying of cancer, you guys! :story:

And that is exactly why I am comfortable in a Trump victory. Nobody ever won an election being against the other candidate. They had to be FOR SOMETHING.

Just look back. Who were the big fat losers in recent memory? Hildawg? Romney? McCain/Palin? Kerry? None of them had a stance other than "the other guy sucks". Meanwhile, the other candidate had a platform and won campaigning for it. The people elected the person and their platform. Even if it was a dumb platitude like hope and change. People believed it. They thought "that guy is going to change things for good" and they voted for him. It wasn't "that guy is not going to change things like the other guy would do for bad" and not vote for the other guy. The system doesn't reward that. It's a loser's tactic.

That is why I am very certain Biden is going to lose. And why their mud-slinging anything-to-destroy-enemy TDS tears will be so very delicious.

ATTN DEMS: Run someone who resonates with the public who only is for things they like in their platform and not built around being against things they don't (shouldn't) like. Also have it be not crazy. You will win. Not now but later once you get over your stupid. Trust me. It'll come back around if you just act constructively. Nobody likes a pessimist or least-worst option in a leader.
 
The NYT muses over whether or not the Democrats can block a SCOTUS nomination. This article will be remarkably disheartening to Democrats

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/19/us/politics/mitch-mcconnell-trump-supreme-court.html

tl;dr

The Democrats can't filibuster and they need four Republicans to vote against and they've probably only three - Collins, Romney, and Murkowski. Crucially Lindsay Graham has changed his mind and said he will vote to confirm.

It ends with this

That means that even if Mr. Biden won the presidency and Democrats secured control of the Senate, Mr. McConnell would remain majority leader for the remainder of the year, with the ability to force votes provided that he maintained the support of a simple majority. Given his zeal for filling the federal courts with conservative jurists, Mr. McConnell would almost certainly avail himself of the opportunity to do so to confirm a Supreme Court justice.

Which made me laugh.

Mind you, I bet the Democrats solution to resort to appeals to emotion and argumentum ad baculum in one form or another as they did with Kavanaugh, which won't be much fun.
 
That last wish and it's wording is really fucking weird to me. Just imagine this:

This lady is on her deathbed. She's lived a long life filled with ups and downs, smiles and tears. Her family is all there, wanting one last moment with their mother or grandmother. This is Ruth's last chance to impart some final words of wisdom or comfort to her friends and family. In that moment, she squeezes out

"dOn'T lEt ThEm ToUcH mY sTuFf!"

Then dies. What a fucking end!

It's weird to you because you're not a Jew.

"In that moment, she squeezes out

"dOn'T lEt ThEm ToUcH mY sTuFf!"

Then dies. What a fucking end!"

As is tradition.
 

I could imagine RBG doing a facepalm or she act like the dog who said "this is fine".

Styx and some Youtubers vlogged to replace Ginsburg asap.

SlimandNone __
Never forget what they (including KAMALA HARRIS) did to Kavanaugh. It's time for the Republicans to play the Dems' game. Play dirty. The gloves need to come off.

S L

And just like that the China Flu disappeared. Ginsburg's death was the cure.

Supreme Court Justices are not replaced. They are appointed. Presidents are not installed. They are elected.

Her use of language betrays her side’s intentions.

It also hints strongly someone else wrote it, I don't think a Justice who knows the law would use such inflammatory terms, both as a matter of principle and of legal propriety, even when not "official".

Even if a Justice doesn't like certain police tactics employed during search and seizure, they'd NEVER outright call cops "pigs" or "stormtroopers", even if they believe it, that just poisons the well that anything they rule on will be suspect, assuming the comments alone don't force a recusal for anything police-related even hitting their desk.
 
All correct, but you are focusing on the qualifiers that exist while your worry papers over the missing elements.

The dissatisfacted side does not have military, manufacture, or supply capabilities. They are up against the premier military force of the world. There exists, within these areas of unrest, significant albeit quiet resistance to the party. These areas are co-dependent on the areas they'd move against, meaning that large scale political support will be minimized beyond base opportunism (And is why much has been pulled back). This goes on, while the core of unrest is there, there is a lack of what would be needed to really make a civil war occur.

This , x 1000 , when South Carolina sceeded in 1861, they had troops and cannon and used them to fire on Federal targets.... today, what does ANTIFA have? Nothing.

There's gonna be civil unrest for sure, but not war, the disaffected reeeing far-left has no military muscle or means of compulsion upon standing forces. The only power they have is the ability to riot, granted from officials like "Mayor" Wheeler who acquiesce time and time again before their demands. The first time they hit a concrete "NO" from State or Federal forces, they can do nothing but cry that at least they're martyrs now as they get cuffed, stuffed, or , in a rare handful of cases, bodybagged when they won't go quietly.

If California or Oregon were to say "we secede!" , well, literally WHO'S army is gonna make that stick? Or even try? Nothing will happen except some people will break windows in the street, and the Governor will look like a fool when the Feds roll in to restore order. That declaration won't be worth the 100% recyclable material Starbuck's Napkin it's written on.

The states don't have the backing of command-able militia units anymore, and those they technically DO are not going to die for empty liberal causes. And thanks to blue areas making it impossible to establish industry or even continuity of infrastructure, (to save nature) they can't logistically supply any loyal units they may have once outside help is cut off. (You think blue-collar truckers are gonna drive into active war zones?)

The modern State in the US no longer has independent war-making ability, PARTICUARLY not blue ones that can't keep needles and human shit from piling up in their own streets.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death has shown the world that not only is the American left made up of dribbling, authoritarian morons without principles, but they’re also fuckin dyslexic.
With the amount of RPing I've seen it really just solidifies the opinion that they're adult children. Seriously, how tasteless do you have to be to meme and roleplay about a recently deceased US Justice. Like her or not it's immature and disrespectful.

Don't take this the wrong way, but that is the most boomer way to die.

Ugh.

Alright, not only is it disgustingly elitist to suggest that because these Senators don't represent enormous swathes of unwashed hippies and trust fund college kids on the West coast, their vote shouldn't count for anything, but you're completely ignoring the fact that Gorsuch made it through because you nuked the rule that would have prevented it, Kavanaugh made it through because of that same missing rule, and Ruth's replacement is going to be a suppository because she refused to retire and you refused to let her anyways.

You're in a Hell of your own making, your opinion is fucking retarded, and no one gives a shit about the popular vote. Enjoy your new Justice.
I'm cautiously optimistic that these new judges will impose law and order into these burning cities they call peaceful protesting.

I don't know what a Republican run Supreme Court will look like, but PLEASE don't go back to 1960.

The video of the young woman freaking out in the car is simultaneously funny and disgusting. In particular, when she says: "RUTH! You just had to make it to 2021!!"

The elderly cancer patient just had to not die for two more years so that I (me me me me me) could get what I want probably maybe. You just had to not die so that I could continue doing nothing and enjoy my life a little bit more while your life comes to an end after serving its purpose (which was to help me).

That's some fucked up shit. It's up there with any of the funny and disgusting hot takes we come up with. The only difference being that these people have wide support in commerce, industry and politics and we're just a bunch of faggots jerking it on Null's webzone.

What he said isn't even sincere whatsoever. Of the 7 last Presidential elections, Republicans got walloped both in the electoral and popular vote 4 times. Only in 2000 and 2020 did Republicans win without the popular vote while in 2004 Bush one with it, but of course, he put it the way he did because it sounds more damning that way. Just like the fact that he makes it seem that only Republican senators voted for Gorsuch, Roberts, Alito, and Kavanaugh even though that is absolutely bogus in the case of Roberts who clearly had bipartisan support while the other justices squeaked by and we all know why that is. Because the other side simply didn't want the GOP to get their nominations in (and because of the "Orange" man).
