Justice who established herself as a trailblazer for women’s rights and gender equality, died on Friday from complications of metastatic pancreas cancer. She was 87.
“I have often said I would remain a member of the Court as long as I can do the job full steam. I remain fully able to do that,” Ginsburg said. She has had several bouts with cancer, including a 1999 surgery for colorectal cancer and early treatment for pancreatic cancer in 2009. When her husband moved to New York for work, she transferred to Columbia University for her final year of law school. She once again won a seat on the college’s law review and graduated at the top of her class. However, despite her long history of academic success, she found that her sex prevented her from obtaining any positions at established law firms.

Honor RBG's fight and last wishes by signing the petition 'Do not fill Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Supreme Court seat until after the 2021 inauguration' on MoveOn. MAY HER MEMORY BRING BLESSINGS. Sign the petition here:

TRUMP 2020!!!!
The use of 'new' is odd. If Trump wins, he is not a new president. So, this implies we should wait until Trump is out of office.
Well a NEW one won’t be installed for another 4 years.

Well, fuck.
2020 sucks. I hate this year. I can't wait to forget it ever happened. It's a sad day for America, a sad day for women. My heart is broken.
Oh no! What a remarkable woman. She did so much for so many. A champion for women and our rights. May she Rest In Peace, she will be greatly missed. 😞
No No NO!!!
Noooooo!!!
Oh fu*k! We're screwed
vote

:(
46 days to get it done realDonaldTrump
Make him wait, like how Obama pick was stolen
This endangers all of our lives even more than already. My love to her family and hope for all of us.
It's about damn time She kept holding up due process.
😭😭😭
We are SOOOOO screwed!
Noooooo!
Guess who’s gonna pick a new SCOTUS?
Yes yes yes!!!!
Rot. In. 🔥
Watch the GOP dance on her grave.
What a grand woman, she’ll be missed
We have lost a great lady and a fair judge.
Oh no. Im devastated.
No!!!!!!!!!! Please don’t be true
This is sad news. This hurts my soul.
I just used my expletive quota up for the rest of the year...
As a Republican I mourn her loss. I watched the movie about her and gained so much respect for after. She was a tough cookie and a fighter. Prayers for her family and friends. 🙏
Say it ain’t so! 😢. Rest in power RBG.
Why we don't agree on our views she was a fighter till the end taught me about tough through two aortic dissections 🙏
I’m devastated!
Fly high Queen. You were a hero to so many. Your legend lives on.
Omg.
I am floored, it's as bad as Biden losing. Ah, dear wonderful soul, rest softly. You are written in the Book of Life. Worse Rosh Hashanah ever, and worse year ever. Now what will we do?
McConnell Ginsburg 11Justices2021 When we get out of this Trump/GOP nightmare, Democrats need to ditch their political timidity & announce they will EXPAND SCOTUS to 11 seats, which hasn't been expanded since 1869 when the U.S. population was less than ⅛ of what it is today.
We’re fucked.
😢😭😭😭
There is no time to greive. Lets get to work. What we need to do: How to do it:
i’m not okay
of course trump is smiling
I am so heartbroken for your loss America 😭😭🇨🇦 RBG
Oh look at the left, angry that another moral Christian might..will ...take the place of RBG. Hallelujah!!!
Oooooooh man
2020, you’re the worst!!!! To say she will be missed is a gross understatement
I hate 2020
RIP
TO DUMP BOTH TRUMP AND BIDEN PLEASE WRITE-IN MAKE AMERICA AMAZING FOR PRESIDENT 2020
🙏😢❤
Thinking of FilmmakerJulie & Betsywest right now, and their magnificent doco RBG.
Rest In Peace 🙏🏿
She was a political hack !! Replace her now !!
Damn. RIP.
How sad....
Before RBG and the Marshall court, it was conservative. It's a cycle. You can bet the Senate Majority Leader will not want to wait until after the election to agree to a new appointment. And why not? What's the difference again?
An incredible lady. RIP x
Well, I’m sure the Senate won’t allow Trump to install a new one on an election year... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 jk
😰
😔🙏
Good news
Condolences. What an incredible woman. Omg.
Fuck
RIP 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Oh fuck
Omg
Rest in peace.
