Bless her heart, she just can't stay awake for the hearings any longer. Now, our great POTUS will get to appoint another candidate to the SCOTUS who will remain there for a generation.
This is coming a lot sooner than expected, which leaves some wondering if it's really her health, or was she given an ultimatum behind the scenes to retire, or else?
This could be why the DemoRats cheated so heavily in the mid-term elections. They need to take the Senate so they can shut down anything before it makes it to the Supreme Court.

Quote:U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has had a re-occurrence of malignant melanoma, she has told her law clerks. Ginsburg was treated in 1999 for colon cancer and had surgery in 2009 for pancreatic cancer.
She has told key Democratic members of the Senate about her medical condition, including ranking Democratic member of the Judiciary Committee Dianne Feinstein. This explains in part the "take no prisoners" attitude of the Democrats during the Kavanaugh nomination, carefully orchestrating weak 37 year old allegations against Kavanaugh by Women he barely remembers knowing in High School and College.
Let's hope the next appointment doesn't turn into the three-ring circus that Kavanaugh's did! 
Quote:Ginsburg, 85 was appointed by President Bill Clinton and took the oath of office on August 10, 1993. She is the second female justice (after Sandra Day O'Connor) of four to be confirmed to the court (along with Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, who are still serving). Following O'Connor's retirement, and until Sotomayor joined the court, Ginsburg was the only female justice on the Supreme Court. During that time, Ginsburg became more forceful with her dissents, which were noted by legal observers and in popular culture. She is generally viewed as belonging to the liberal wing of the court.
Ginsburg has authored notable majority opinions, including United States v. Virginia, Olmstead v. L.C., and Friends of the Earth, Inc. v. Laidlaw Environmental Services, Inc.
On to better days!
