Just when you thought that things could not get crazier…
Via Reuters, “U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg dies at age 87 from pancreatic cancer”:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a stalwart liberal on the U.S. Supreme Court since 1993, died on Friday at age 87, the court said, giving President Donald Trump a chance to expand its conservative majority with a third appointment at a time of deep divisions in America with a presidential election looming.
Ginsburg, a champion of women’s rights who became an icon for American liberals, died of complications from metastatic pancreatic cancer, the court said in a statement. Her departure could dramatically alter the ideological balance of the court, which currently has a 5-4 conservative majority, by moving it further to the right.
OMG!
