I’m not sure if Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s body was even cold yet before Moscow Mitch McConnell made his vow that a candidate for the Supreme Court of the United States would be put to the floor within the next few days.
This is after 2016, when McConnell and Graham said that an appointment couldn’t be made to replace Scalia in President Obama’s final year in office. That left Obama’s pick dangling in the figurative wind.
Last night, those selfsame motherfuckers said that it’s okay that an appointment is made THIS time because the Republicans control the Senate.
I’m not sure how that makes a difference, except in their own myopic, power-grabbing minds.
As my dear daughter pointed out this morning, this means that Trump is admitting that he won’t win in November and thus needs a Justice on the Court who will side with him in the event of close Election results. He NEEDS someone on the Court willing to lick the shit off his ass to be confirmed for a second Term in the White House.
Justice Ginsburg said on her death bed that her wish was that no one be appointed to her seat until after Inauguration Day 2021, but it’s clear that’s the last thing the Rethuglicans want to do.
I stand with the Notorious RBG in her wish that an appointment is not made until after Inauguration Day, and I hope you will join me in that stance.

Just Pure Rage — Yep, This One’s VERY Political
Published inBlog
Just another example of wealthy, white, Republican men taking advantage of a woman. In this case, a woman who served her country with her last, dying breath. It’s sickening. It’s appalling. I can only hope that we all have very long memories when it comes to this completely disrespectful behavior on the behalf of the Republican Party. Will his “sheeple” remember or care? Probably not. They should. Thanks to RBG, a woman with a good job or her own house has those protected rights. Any woman who can advocate for her own healthcare also owes that protected right to RBG. I don’t care where you sit politically, if you are a woman, the actions of Republicans should enrage you at this moment.
Indeed, M. M.
There are those this very day who seek to return women to the status of mere chattel with no rights or voice of our own.
It sickens me.
