Very sad day. It is incomprehensible to me how McConnell can sell the idea of trying to replace her before November when Scalia died in February, Garland was nominated in March, and he and other Republicans argued it was much too little time to get it done and it was immoral to do so with the election just a short 8 months away.
It is easy to forget she was considered a moderate most of her life, but the SC had moved so far to the right, she became a liberal by comparison, and the court is far more conservative now and likely to get even more so.

I will always appreciate how she dedicated the last part of her life to saving the SCOTUS from Trump's shit--giving up the last 3+ years to prevent him from doing what we all KNOW he will try and do was a true sacrifice--Now, as though it hasn't already--The REAL fight begins.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Despite winning the popular vote just once in 32 years, they will soon have a 6-3 majority. What a fucking shithole.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Don't despair too much--The Dems should win the WH, the Senate and keep the house--IF the GOP pushes through another Justice, the Dems simple expand the court and pack it with their choices. No need to play fair anymore.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011
