The Supreme Court Is Ruthless

It didn’t take long at all. Leftists are losing their minds over the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Of course, most Leftists lost their minds a long time ago. They are grown-ups who still act like children and throw tantrums, and wail, and scream, and shriek. More from Mr. Reagan.

Looks like riots and violent protests are back on the menu as the Leftists go insane once again following the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Demonstrations have already begun in Portland, and Left-leaning extremists are urging members of this fanatic party to burn down everything. Looks like we’re going to just have to bury them at the polls in November. Otherwise, these idiots are going to trash our nation, and make everything look like the dirty hovels where they live.

The death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg will energize the Left. Not because she died prematurely. She was 87 and had had numerous physical ailments and bouts with illness. But she was the Supreme Court’s most radical Leftist, so she symbolized much that the Left holds dear.

Will conservatives be as motivated? They should be, says Styxhexenhammer. Now President Donald Trump can appoint a much more conservative replacement and steer the Supreme Court back toward a position that reflects the views of most Americans. There are 5 million new gun owners, for instance. Isn’t it time to secure the Second Amendment, and more permanently block efforts by the Left to sabotage or sandbag our gun rights?

President Donald Trump tweeted Saturday that he will announce his Supreme Court nominee soon. “We were put in this position of power and importance to make decisions for the people who so proudly elected us, the most important of which has long been considered to be the selection of United States Supreme Court justices. We have this obligation, without delay.” Later, Trump said he will likely make known his choice sometime over the next week and added “it will be a woman.”

Speculation, so far, seems focused on two women: Amy Coney Barrett,  a former Notre Dame University law professor now serving as a justice on the 7th Circuit of the US Court of Appeals, and Joan Larsen, justice on the 6th Circuit of the US Court of Appeals and former Associate Justice of the Michigan Supreme Court from 2015 to 2017. Jesse Watters on Fox News says sources have told him the pick will go to Barrett. “Politically, nominating Barrett now basically expands his ticket giving him kind of a second running mate,” Watters said.

We don’t know yet how long this will take to settle: How long before the Senate under Major Leader Mitch McConnell will conduct proceedings to confirm Trump’s appointment. But we can safely say: Now all political hell breaks loose.

Only 10 days before Ginsberg died, president Donald Trump updated his list of Supreme Court candidates. There was a furor over the list, but now it appears quite prescient. More from Lisa Haven.
