I hope she does retire.

We're gonna need another right winger on the bench for the gun control push that's coming, and IT IS.

Yup. Expect daily shootings from here til 2020.

She's back to work this quickly after cracking 3 ribs? Bulls__t.

I wonder if perhaps there wasn't any injury, and the whole thing was just an excuse to not be there for Kavenaugh's swearing-in ceremony.

Reading and preparing briefs isn't exactly strenuous activity. There isn't much to do but wrap her tight and send her on the way if it's just ribs. She won't be comfortable, but she can read with broken ribs.

Plus whiskey helps dull the pain.

Sorry to see she is not well. She deserves the chance to spend her days with her family, not wasting them fighting losing battles against our SCOTUS Super Majority.

Again, sorry to see she's sick. Not sorry she's leaving the court.

Time for yet another far-right Appointment + Senate rubber stamp. Excellent. This ensures our Constitution will be upheld precisely as written for at least another generation. We don't need judges or lawyers, we only need loyal Americans who will defer totally to the Constitution precisely as written. The less thinking/interpreting they do, the better it is for America.

Defending freedom, liberty & all that is good/right in the World sure does work up an appetite.

Here's to being on the winning team

We need a large national movement of patriots swearing an oath to the Constitution to overtly reject/ignore any future illegal gun laws.

The Second Amendment isn't up for discussion or debate. It is an immutable fact of life, so it will remain for as long as we are a country. The day the 2A disappears is the day we cease being a nation and instead become some civil-war ridden third world trash heap.

The U.S. as a nation has always had the 2A. The commie/liberal/progressives have tried removing it for ages now. So far they've been unsuccessful. But they are far from being done on their attacks. If the 2A and the U.S. is so bad, and as one poster has stated in another thread, Canada is so much better, why do all the immigrants want to come to the U.S.?

Broken ribs aren't exactly a weeks-in-bed type injury. There really isn't anything they can do for you. They don't even tape ribs anymore sometimes. They just tell you to be careful and send you on your way. My brother broke 3 ribs last year and was out carrying mail the next day.

Except she is 85....

Santa Monica Observer seems like fake news. Here's a gem from them:

Kany e West Appointed Under-Secretary of the Interior After Meeting at Trump Tower

Wait... are you implying that Kanye West is not the Under-Secretary of the Interior?

Secretary of Shizzle Snoop Dogg should be notified immediately!

So, after confirming the shocking news that Kanye West is not, in fact, Under-Secretary of the Interior (when asked, Secretary of Shizzle Snoop Dogg said, and I quote, "Holmes, you buggin"), and inspired by theantediluvian's revelation, I decided to look a little deeper into the author of this article.

Here are some other noteworthy offerings from Santa Monica Observer Staff Writer Stan Greene:

Alie n Spacecraft Explodes Over Greenland Releasing 2.1 kilotons of Explosive Force

Montana Rancher Shoots, Kills Rare Mexican Chupacabra, DNA Tests Confirm

Remains of an Ancient Civilization Discovered on Mars by NASA's Planet Surveyor

North Korea Responsible for USS Fitzgerald Collision with ACX Freighter

Vide o: UFO Crosses Sky Over California Desert on Wednesday Afternoon, May 3, 2017

While I find this source highly dubious, and thus find the uncorroborated claims about Justice Ginsburg suspicious, I'm sure Stan Greene would fit right in on ATS.

And hey, who knows?

Maybe it's all true.

We're gonna need another right winger on the bench for the gun control push that's coming, and IT IS.

With a Dem led House, you can bet on it. Thankfully, the Senate can keep it in check. We already have a right leaning court though, so that's a win too.....

Speaking of which, the latest mass shootings aren't getting nearly enough press to fit the agenda, so we're likely going to see a much bigger event (on par with Vegas) before the end of the year. No doubt timed just as there's a new bill ready to ram through the House.

So, after confirming the shocking news that Kanye West is not, in fact, Under-Secretary of the Interior (when asked, Secretary of Shizzle Snoop Dogg said, and I quote, "Holmes, you buggin")

Yeah, we can likely move this into the Hoax bin.

The mass shooting card has been overplayed. Nobody pays any attention to them any more. And that might actually be a good thing, because hopefully the would-be shooters will realize that they won't gain an audience.

Called BS on this earlier and now.

Was posted yesterday but dated today. Misspelled as well.

Yeah, it's fake news.

Another interesting tidbit, President Trump's political adviser, Stephen Miller, used to intern there.

I wish that were true.

Instead, they will find a way to dial this up, to make it more newsworthy.

My bet is something bigger, like a major sports event, or theme park, etc.

FYI: The Supreme Court just announced that Ruth Ginsburg will miss Supreme Court arguments next week too.

I wonder if Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg feels that she will be able to continue working at "full steam"?

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has repeatedly said she will retire when she is no longer able to work “full steam” — a promise that could be put to the test this week — or soon after — with the 85-year-old justice sitting out oral arguments while recovering from cancer surgery.

Although Ginsburg said last summer that she hopes to serve until she is 90, she has been consistent about when it will be time for her to hang up the robe: "I said I will do this job as long as I can do it full steam,” she said on Dec. 17 at the New York City premier of “On the Basis of Sex,” a movie based on her early career. Five days later, Ginsburg underwent surgery to remove early-stage cancerous nodules and was hospitalized for several days.

Last February, Ginsburg used the same phrase during an event at the Adas Israel Congregation in Washington, D.C. “As long as I can do the job full steam, I will be here,” she said.

"I will retire when it's time," Ginsburg told NPR's Nina Totenberg in 2016. "And when is it time? When I can't do the job full steam.” She used the same "full steam" phrase on at least two other occasions.

If Ginsburg is serious about her repeated vow to step down if she is not fully robust, liberals could be facing a crisis in the judiciary sooner than they think.

Justice Ginsburg certainly has an affinity for the term "full steam". (Originated in the Steam Locomotive period.)

Some say Ruth Bader Ginsburg hasn't been "full steam" for several years.

I suppose only she knows when her energy and activity level no longer rises to HER definition of "full steam".

She should just retire and spend her final years with family.

She's an activist. It's the only thing that gives her life meaning.

Once an activist is made they need controversy to stay relevant. Her entire career on that bench has been an exercise in precisely that.

People really should read her book she published in 1977, it is a free download now if you type in, " Sex Bias in U.S. code." There are several nuggets of interest such as...the age of consent (pg 102) should be less than 12 years old, boy scouts and girl scouts should be coed/integrated (pg 145) as should all prisons (pg 101). Mother's and Father's day should be done away with as those days show sexual bias (Pg 146)... Marriage between whoever and no matter how many in the marriage should be legal, women in front line combat (pg 98), Prostitution, all to be made constitutional along with stripping/redefining the English language to do away with sexual stereotypes.. She was a Clinton appointee, 2d or 3rd choice, if I remember correctly, as his first choice was accused of employing an illegal alien for domestic work ..

She is someone who is supposed to sit in judgement over laws judged to be, or not constitutional. As far as I am concerned she is and has been our token socialist on the supreme court for good or bad.

Some of her writings appear in democratic talking head points as shown on what passes for news.

That's not RBG's book. That's a report by the US Commission on Civil Rights and the things you cite are wording in existing laws that show sex bias in US laws.

Here's a Quora discussion on it

Agree that this thread should be moved to HOAX.

Current news stories say she's cancer free, recovering as normal, and working from home
