In what is a deepening mystery, a cherished icon of the left has for all intents and purposes disappeared and barring a sighting, speculation may soon begin and what could be one of most bizarre stories of these troubled times.
There are increasingly ominous signs that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg may have serious health issues as she missed her second consecutive day of oral arguments, an unprecedented development for a woman who has been as tough as a two-dollar steak.
RBG may indeed be a tough cookie but let’s face it; she’s 85-years-old and her condition has been rapidly deteriorating after falling in her office late last year and then having a couple of cancerous growths removed from her left lung in December.
This despite having never been more of an iconic figure to the left which is scooping up RBG action figures, lining up to see her biopic On The Basis of Sex and being tabbed by anti-Trump propaganda mill CNN as the “face of the Trump resistance.”

Hell, philosopher king Michael Moore even celebrated the holidays by making one of the RBG action figures into the angel on top of his own Christmas tree.

But alas, things are catching up with Ginsburg who may not be long for this mortal coil and even shorter on the Supreme Court bench.
Now that the inevitable is coming, the loony left is going into total panic mode over the prospect that RBG will not only punch her ticket to the great beyond but (the horror) that President Trump would get yet another pick for the nation’s highest court which could cement a ruling conservative majority for decades.
Some are undergoing a complete break with reality like wretched soul to took to Twitter to implore others who seem to be existing in a parallel dimension by calling for the cybermob to give up one day of their lives to keep RBG alive.
Seriously, this isn’t coming from the satirical website The Onion either.

Via The Daily Wire, “Justice Ginsburg Misses 2nd Day At Supreme Court As Her Cultish Followers Get Creepier”:
Fearing that Justice Ginsburg’s days on the Supreme Court may be numbered in the era of President Trump, reactions from her supporters have ranged from deranged cultishness to sheer panic. Over at Politico, columnist Roger Simon said that he would actually sacrifice precious days of his own life to prolong Ginsburg’s.
Simon said on Twitter: “If it were possible, would you subtract one day off your life and add it to Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s life for one extra day of good health? If just 10,000 people did this, it would add 27 productive years to her life.”

It’s not the first time that members of the RBG cult have flirted with the macabre:
I hereby donate all of my ribs and organs to Ruth Bader Ginsburg

If Ruth Bader Ginsburg needs any of my bones or internal organs I don't need mine
— Leslie Grossman (@MissLeslieG) November 8, 2018
By my count about 12,475 of you have offered all your ribs to RBG so she should be set for at least the rest of this administration.
— Madison Malone Kircher (@4evrmalone) November 8, 2018
Literally whatever parts of my body RBG needs I will donate them. Let's also get her a robotic exoskeleton and a bulletproof Popemobile and a herculean amount of bubble wrap.

Thoughts and prayers should go out to Ginsburg who has been a dedicated (if misguided) public servant but if this absence turns into a full-blown death spiral it is going rip the hearts right out of the chests of the so-called Resistance.
