Shannon Bream is reading a letter from Justice Kennedy, retiring 7/31.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Now, poor old Ruth Ginsberg is gonna have to stop by her mortician's office and get fresh shot of embalming fluid so that her corpse will remain fresh through the rest of this session.
'cause she was appointed to the highest court in the US to show that MEAN OLD TRUMP a thing or two.

True, but I was hoping it would be Ginsburg, first.

I don't want her to retire. I want her to fucking die during a hearing.
BANG!! The sound of her empty fucking head hitting the desk.
The other day, a member said that this hag was "only" 85! ONLY 85!! Good grief. That's ANCIENT.

A vacancy of Ginsburg's seat would be the best situation, but I'll definitely take the chance to swap Kennedy for another Gorsuch. It's still a major win for the Constitution.
Now let's hope McConnell can get Trump's nominee through in a hurry. If the GOP loses the senate in the midterms, the chances of getting a decent replacement are nil.

Recent group photos of the SCOTUS give the appearance of her passing some months ago and merely waiting for the funeral.
It reminds me of the famous photos of FDR at Yalta.
I suppose that as long as her clerks guide her hand through the signatures the rest of the court will continue with the fiction that she is contributing.

Smart man, getting out while Trump can replace him. This will give the communist Left fits, that Trump will replace his 2nd SC justice.
If Trump gets a chance to replace RBG, the communist Left will lose their minds. Absolutely come unhinged.

Just several weeks ago I went on a white water rafting trip with a 92 year-old retired doctor. She was awesome!
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

Judge Napolitano revealed a conversation he had with Scalia before he died that Kennedy had said that he would retire when there was a Republican President and a Republican majority. I appreciate that he is retiring now.
