THIS. IS. BIG.
I’ve written many, MANY times that I will NOT wish any harm upon RBG… and will readily condemn those who do. We ought to be better than that, folks.
I DO, however, hope she retires. She’s well past her prime. It’s time for her to step back and take care of herself.
The libs don’t want that for her. They want to work her until she dies.
And THEN you can die?
Wow. Seems pretty selfish.
I wish her a quick and easy recovery. https://t.co/xGvXdY6jhD

Sick.
Anyway… recent news about her is going to send libs into a TAILSPIN.
According to the AP Ginsburg will be missing arguments for the first time in more than 25 years.
Ginsburg was not on the bench as the court met Monday to hear arguments. It was not clear when she would return to the court, which will hear more cases on Tuesday and Wednesday, and again next week.
Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said the 85-year-old justice is continuing to recuperate and work from home after doctors removed two cancerous growths from her left lung on Dec. 21.
She’s an 85-YEAR-OLD RECOUPING FROM LUNG CANCER.
Anyone who thinks this is a quick and easy thing is lying to themselves.
Ginsburg was discharged from a New York hospital on Dec. 25.
Chief Justice John Roberts said in the courtroom Monday that Ginsburg would participate in deciding the argued cases “on the basis of the briefs and transcripts of oral arguments.”
And while RBG has suffered from health issues before, she has NEVER missed arguments.
Ginsburg had two earlier cancer surgeries in 1999 and 2009 that did not cause her to miss court sessions. She also has broken ribs on at least two occasions.
The court said doctors found the growths on Ginsburg’s lung when she was being treated for fractured ribs she suffered in a fall at her office on Nov. 7.
After past health scares, Ginsburg has come back to work relatively quickly. In 2009, she was at the court for arguments on Feb. 23, 18 days after surgery for pancreatic cancer.
