There is a very detailed rumor around about her current medical condition. Internal bleeding due to the cancer spreading.

Shame on RBG for not resigning years ago. She KNOWS that she is unfit to serve. She is actually soiling her own reputation by bitterly clinging to her seat for purely personal and political reasons.

The Dem line will be “you can’t appoint a SC nominee during an impeachment hearing.”

RBG reminds me a little bit of the old woman in the bathtub from Doctor Sleep and The Shining.

If she dies, the Rats will vote for impeachment before the corpse is cold in an effort to prevent the senate from appointing her replacement.

True. They will also say the GOP set up a new process where we don’t consider Supreme Court nominees in an election year, because of what was done in 2016 after Scalia died.

So between impeachment and a presidential election year happening, the Democrats will claim we can’t consider Supreme Court nominees until after the 2020 presidential election.

This is part of the reason Dems want the impeachment process in play. Lets say RBG is forced to vacate the Supreme Court. Trump will make his appointment and Dems in the House and Senate will howl to the heavens along with their stooge media.... That a President under impeachment cannot be allowed to appoint his new Supreme Court Justice.

The Kavanaugh hearings were tame compared to what’s coming.

IF they do, and I believe they will, POTUS can then claim that was the only reason they were pursuing it in the first place and tell em to “pack sand where the sun don’t shine” and make the appointment anyway in spite of the communist bassturds.

Where can we find it?

The Impeachment kabuki, a Ginsberg dirt nap AND a released IG report, all at the same time could be a big deal.

Combo of an impeachment farce and RBG moving on (so to speak) will unleash hell in Washingtoon DC in 2020. If they both take place. Who knows? RGB might live to 103.....and the only way she leaves the Supreme Court Building will be feet first.

The senate would have to approve the selection with Trump under impeachment. It drags out until the election. Then Trump has to win re-election or it don’t happen. It’s a crap shoot.

No frooonking way. Ginzborg leaves the Supreme Court in the March-April-May time frame as spring is getting full, with the birds in the trees singing and mating. And the daffodils are blooming.
