No I believe with absolute certainty that Trump and Moscow Mitch will ramrod a cretin thorough the Senate and onto the court before the election
The rest of the Supreme Court should go on strike demanding that the decision be made during the next administration.
I don’t think there is any power that could stop them from doing that.

as much as a pain in the ass the kavanaugh vote was....i doubt susan collins will fall on her sword and guarantee her losing her senate seat...
Maybe we'll get lucky and turtle boys first erection in decades will be fatal
If so, I support and expect a court packing initiative to be put forth by the Democratic caucus. Given how partisan the Supreme Court has become, no single president (especially a single term president), should be able to shape 33% of the bench.
Her only hope for re-election hinges upon her letting the next president nominate a justice. But given her record of flaccid stands, I don't have much hope.
Like those vampires in Twilight??It comes with a glitter shine that really looks cool in the sun.
Sounds like there is a republican opposition quorum.
this is going to be interesting.

Ohh, you could make some trail-mix bombs.
count me in.
I wanna blow up Vandeman’s house with them.

Vandeman is irrelevant. It's his ilk that still stains.
And I'm stocking up for what "america" is about to look like in two months. I sure as shit ain't wasting delicious fruit and nut mix on that fool.

Good point. I have a few pounds of 16 penny nails, though.
Drumpf and turtle neck may legitimately put in Ted Cruz or Bill Barr in the supreme court. Which will mean that the court may decide the election (again) regardless of vote count.
I don't know about you but the end of our semblance of democracy is standing in our face, even more today than it was literally yesterday. And you and I both know vanilla isis isn't going to be nice about it on a local level.

there is a voice in the back of my head that says we should test her body for the same poison that was given to the Russian opposition leader. Putin is Trumps puppet master.......
Well she was kind of 500 years old and had kind of a cancer thing going on. Novichok is a little diffnt
which is why no one will check. I trust Trump to do every slimy thing possible. Like have your friend hung in a jail cell before he can implicate you in a child sex scandal
I'll never forgive hillary clinton for that!
I get your point. But there will be some kind of autopsy right?
This is the RBG cancer history I pieced together this summer:
RBG cancer:
- 1999 sigmoid likely adenocarcinoma, resected, neoadj chemorads
- 2009 pancreatic, unclear type, distal pancreatectomy + splenectomy
- 2018 two malignant lung nodules resected, unclear mets or primary
- 2019 pancreatic rads for local recurrence
- 2020 liver mets (?)
That she had radiation for a local recurrence of her pancreatic cancer suggests to me that it both was ductal adenocarcinoma primary. In turn this suggests that the liver lesions recently and the lung lesions in 2018 are pancreatic adenocarcinoma mets.
That there’s a long interval beteeen these episodes with presumably surveillance imaging along the way suggests a relatively good biology, as it were. NB: all this gleaned from publicly available articles, of course.
That's what I wrote in July. Good biology in this sense was in that she survived since 2009 after presumably pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, which is beating the odds in and of itself.
Pancreatic is no joke, agreed.
I think purpose carried her a long way.
I'll still for the life of me never understand her friendship with scalia.

Nasty fucking business.
Scalia was complex, an ass but complex.
I sat with him at the Presidents Luncheon at Santa Clara University. Its a Jesuit University. it was graduation, my Aunt and Scalia were getting awarded Honorary Doctorates ,The Valedictorian was a woman and in her remarks she talked about womens and gay rights. When she finished only one man on the stage out of 50 stood to applaud. That was Scalia. When it became his turn to speak the first thing he did was chastise the other men on the stage for their disrespect. He said the ability to speak ones opinion freely in public is the foundation of our country. Whether you agree or disagree with a position when it is delivered in a well thought out and enunciated manner it deserves a modicum of respect. You gentlemen on the stage failed completely in that respect.
I believe it was comments like that and that RBG liked an intellectually challenging debate that engendered their friendship
I still think he was a morally bankrupt ass. And RGBs passing is a terrible loss for all of us. His not so much
I'll refrain from posting hours of interviews with that tool that lie in direct opposition to his desire to present himself as a fan of 'free and fair debate', particularly the shit around the 2000 election. "The intellectual stimulus of legal debate" falls flat when that asshole literally wrote law that killed people.
In the meantime................strap in. Fuckwit posts half generic words of praise but makes sure the meat of the matter gets included.

A long list of GOP senators who promised not to confirm a Supreme Court nominee during an election year
Some are already backtracking.
