Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died.

The Associate Justice passed away from complications due to metastatic pancreatic cancer. She was 87. Ginsburg had sat on the Court since 1993.

The Hill reports:

Her first major opinion as a justice came in 1996 when she wrote the majority decision in United States v. Virginia. The ruling struck down the Virginia Military Institute’s 157-year-old policy of male-only admissions as unconstitutional, and set a stricter legal standard for government action that treats men and women differently.

“Women seeking and fit for a VMI-quality education cannot be offered anything less under the state’s obligation to afford them genuinely equal protection,” Ginsburg wrote in the 7-1 decision.

Ginsburg also gained renown for her cogent and sharply worded dissents.

According to Linda Greenhouse, a longtime Supreme Court reporter and analyst for the New York Times, it was through Ginsburg’s dissenting opinions during the mid-2000s that she “found her voice, and used it.”

Help President Trump Stop Joe Biden [ACT NOW]

  1. I hope this is NOT another tease article! Now maybe we can get another CONSTITUTIONALIST judge and not someone who will legislate from the bench!!

  2. She was a strong broad. Sad that she didn’t leave this world as a retired person. It’s a shame that the politicians will make this into a hateful political agenda issue. Can’t just let her Rest In Peace

    1. She deserves to rot in hell!
      Hanging on just because “orange man bad” makes one hope it was a very painful death!

      1. She could have retired when Obama was still President. Now, on her deathbed, she says she doesn’t want Trump to replace her. Too bad lady, you wanted your cake and eat it too. It doesn’t usually work that way.

    2. It was all political already. Being why she died while being on the bench because she didn’t like Donald Trump like the rest of the dnc and most of the rnc. I’m sure she’s been dead over a year being she’s been missing from the spotlight or unable to rule anything for almost 2 years.

    1. Hillery Clinton phoned president Trump and said she’s like to take Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s place.
      President Trump said he’s fine with it as long as the funeral home agrees.

  3. WOW! Maybe President Trump knew something when he posted his new list? Well this will add a wrinkle to the election! Nominate away, President Trump!

  4. On one level it’s unfortunate that RBG is dead as she is a person/soul. On an other level since she turned her back on God’s commands often [Notable Exodus20:13 “DO NOT KILL” in her support for abortion], and she’s now subject to his judgement without appeal it’s good.

    1. She’s a person without a soul, a caballist, a worshipper of the golden calf. Those are the roots she comes from. Our, and our offsprings’ lives meant nothing to her. Why should you say her demise is unfortunate?

  5. RIP, time to move forward and get a replacement in. For all the leftists that will argue that,

    1) she could have retired under Obama
    2) The President and the senate determine who the replacement is, both in control of Republicans
    3) It is imperative to have 9 members on the Supreme Court given the notion that Democrats will challenge the election results and it will end up in the Supreme Court

    This timing shows how the playing field gets leveled by fate and the course of events. The rules are the rules, follow them.

    1. McConnell will allow the Democrats to use the 60 vote filibuster. He will not let Trump nominate anyone though he says he will. No, for 4 years he has refused to go nuclear and deprive the Democrats of total power to control. McConnell is part of the problem.

  6. While I don’t agree with many of here opinions, she was stellar in her beliefs, honest and dedicated, more then I can say for Sotomayor and Kagan. Ruth and Justice Thomas were the most intelligent members of the court, she will be greatly missed.

    1. She will only be missed by the democrat socialist left. Looks like answered prayers to some. Shall we hope for a trifecta?–followed by Pelosi (age 80) and Biden (78)…maybe our country can be saved, after all.

    2. And just how do you declare she was the most intelligent member? What is our standard. Do you mean she showed intelligence when she declared that she believed in CREATIVE JUDICIAL REVIEW? Or when she declared that she would not us the constitution only as a source of direction but would use European laws?
      Do you say that was intelligent? I suspect you say that because of her support for the perverted LGBT.

  7. I’m sure the is a special place in hell reserved just for her!
    It’s about time she used that reservation, part of her torment will be watching as a true American and non commie takes her place!

  8. If you remember, she was going to retire when she thought Killary was going to win. When Trump won, she stayed on. Her hate for Trump killed her, or she killed herself from where I sit. Not nice for me to say, but I won’t shed a tear for that hate filled woman.

  9. The Murder Turtle needs to move swiftly confirming RBGs replacement. And if any RINOs (Susan, Lisa, Mitt) decide to kick up their heels, Mitch needs to make them go on the record so the voters of Maine, Alaska and Utah can see what Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing they sent to the US Senate.

  10. I have mixed emotions over this news. On one hand, I am glad she is no longer holding a seat on the Supreme Court (one that should only be held by justices who actually see the U.S. constitution as the supreme law of the land) and on the other hand, it is always sad to see somebody brought down by cancer.

    1. God’s will be done. Maybe God tried to get her attention with the certain pain of pancreatic cancer. It did not work. She was her own god.

  11. With all due respect, Ruth was detrimental to all things sacred, traditional and patriotic. Now, we should get a justice who honors our Christian values and our Conservative views.

    1. Well that is certainly not John Roberts. Remember. He declared that Obamacare was a TAX. Even though it originated in the Senate. So he should have declared it unconstitutional for that reason also.

  12. Ginsburg in many ways was left in many decisions she made, but then there are others that instead of abiding by our Constitution neatly gave their opinion around the Constitution with a bunch of twisted words they thought the people would be to naive to understand their great reasoning and until all those Liberal Left Judges are removed over time that narrative will still take place!

  13. God often moves in mysterious ways says the bible. Somehow her death at this moment in time to consider why she had to die now? To the best of my knowledge, this woman never keeled before God. All the anti- God rulings that came from her are sufficient to presume that to be a fact. I wouldn’t want to be in her shoes right now.

  14. RIP M’s Ginsberg . I may not have agreed with your politics or some of your rulings and opions but it is now in God’s hands .

  15. Democrats have done no favors for Trump so i say time for Trump pick new Judge soon as tomorrow would be fine by me.. Roll on Trump 2020 Maga

  16. Did God make his first move in the election? It’s time for a true fundamentalist, God/Jesus based religious revival for this Republic, if it is to survive.

  17. WE need President Trump to nominate a new justice an for McConnell to get her or him approved as soon as possible . Sense the Democrats have admitted they will not concede the election to The president if he wins the electoral college on Nov. 3rd or 4th and plan on dragging it out until after the new year, we will need our Supreme Court at full strength with 9 justice’s to make a decision. Democrats are really pathetic

  18. Get ready for a Supreme Court political bloodbath! Democrats are going to cry foul, and Republicans are going to nominate and ratify the appointment of a new Justice anyway. After the election, if Democrats win, they will use this as an excuse to add Justices and pack the court. This will be one more element of Democrats writing the final chapter of the US as a Republic of relatively free people. Please vote Republican!

    1. Are you blind. McConnell has let the Democrats CONTROL with use of the 60 vote filibuster. He refuses to use the REID nuclear option that Democrats are planning to get rid of.
      Sorry. But unless McConnell changes, there won’t be any vote.

  19. Well! She was ‘on life-support’ for a long time, she was hoping for ‘a Hitlery-victory’ back in 2016, then Trump happened! Lived on in hope and died in despair…too bad!

  20. May she rest in peace. Even if President were to immediately nominate a replacement it is unlikely that any action will be taken by the Senate until after the election. Remember we had a similar situation four years ago.

  21. RIP Ruth. It is truly sad that she refused to give up power and enjoy her retirement and time left on earth. Term Limits MUST be put in place. The poor woman couldn’t even hold her head up but still clung to power. Very sad.

    1. You don’t get it. She was so mean and wicked that what she did in the court WAS ENJOYMENT. That is what gave her a tingle. Sticking it to America.

  22. While I never wish death on anyone, I consider this one a blessing. RBG was an evil creature with the blood of millions of babies on her hands. She also supported ANY unconstitutional law put in place by Demon-crats. She actually joined the celebrations at the White House when Slick Willie’s gun ban was enacted.
    Her arrogant refusal to retire when her health problems made her unable to perform her duties with the SCOTUS openly demonstrated her blatant contempt for our current president as well as her desire to continue her campaign against personal freedom and for immorality.
    May Ruth Bader Ginsburg roast in Hell with her heroes Lenin, Stalin, and Mao.

  23. I see everyone is saying she’s in hell hope there is a special place for her in hell but only good will determine our fate and I am great full that god is the judge and not man so saying this you might want to think about getting yourself right with God or you might end up in hell with the very people your condemning to hell

    1. I would show you the many Bible verses that give believers the right to judge. But you don’t deserve to be corrected because you would just reject those verses like you do so many other.
      “Do not be deceived. God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shoall he also reap………”

  24. She was a traitor to America who did not keep her OATH to defend and uphold the Constitution. She knew she was not upholding the constitution and she did it anyway. yes, she was a traitor to the America the FOUNDING FATHERS intended. Now we can depend on God to judge her fairly since she never did.

  25. Truly, there was nothing good that you could say about Ginsberg. Trump said it all. She was a “remarkable” woman. That said, she did more damage to America than any other person in a century. The VMI ruling was not valid. To have an education that is based on sex was not wrong. We still have colleges that are totally black and no one says a word. At one time ,they would have said it was inferior education. ( it was and still is)
    God help us when we tolerate such evil. SHE REJECTED THE CONSTITUTION.
