Ginsburg, who died last Friday due to complications of metastatic pancreas cancer, will become the first woman to lie in state in the US Capitol today, according to congressional historians. She'll also be the first Jewish person to be given that honour.
The flag-draped casket of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg arrives at the US Capitol, where Ginsburg will lie in state Friday, Sept. 25, 2020, in Washington. Lying in state and lying in honour is when someone's remains are placed in the US Capitol in Washington, DC, to allow the public to pay their respects. This tribute is considered one of the highest honours.
There are no written rules on who may lie in state or honour. It is determined by the current House and Senate and then must be accepted by the family of the deceased.

Loved by the world, but judged by God - with tens of millions of innocent voices as witnesses.
Shame on Americans who have never been able to find any other woman worthy of lying in state

Amy Coney Barrett will replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg: John Jordan | Sky News AustraliaAmy Coney Barrett will replace late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg according to former US naval intelligence officer John Jordan who cited inside sources.\n\nUS President Donald Trump is due to announce his pick at the weekend.\n\n“She was the runner up for the seat that Kavanaugh ultimately got,” Mr Jordan said.\n\n“Rumour has it that Trump told insiders when he interviewed her and Kavanaugh that Kavanaugh was going to get this one, but he knew that when Ruth Bader Ginsburg left the court, either through death or resignation, that there was going to be such a firestorm over that because of her important and iconic status on the left that the brouhaha was going to be biblical. \n\n“He wanted to save Amy Coney Barrett just for that moment, not just because she’s a woman but because of her story.”\n\nMr Jordan said the 48-year-old has seven kids, adopted two from Haiti and has a special needs child.\n\n“She’s going to have that seat for a long time,” he said. Great choice, get it done and move on. Must have 3 names to be a justice apparently

How Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death could see abortion rights ruling Roe v. Wade overturnedLeading Australian abortion rights advocate Wendy McCarthy says she is enraged that the death of women's rights champion Ruth Bader Ginsburg could lead to a reversal in the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling. It won't happen. Too many powerful men rely on women getting abortions to solve the problem of their indiscretions. Full term abortion is murder. If you think killing the baby is a good thing you’re a cunt. Baby lives matter. Close your legs if you can’t take birth control it’s that easy.
