FRANK ON FRIDAY – The Immortal R.B.G.

So there we were, happily watching the news, when they reported the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (R.B.G.) .  I turned to my wife and said, “This will only make things worse.”  As if we weren’t already at the boiling point, with the election less than 6 weeks away, the death of R.B.G.  has turned up the heat.  No matter when a vacancy on the Supreme Court arose, any Trump nominee would have faced a bitter confirmation hearing, and/or circus.  Anyone remember the Kavanaugh hearings?  Add to this mix a presidential election, and what’s coming is a Steel Cage, Battle Royal.  If you thought Democrats couldn’t go so low, just wait.  This will be the limbo championships.  The coming strife could have been avoided.  R.B.G. served on the Court for 27 years, and was 87 years old at the time of her death.  Love her or hate her, she put her stamp on the Court.  In a statement, President Trump said of the late Justice, “Her opinions, including well-known decisions regarding the legal equality of women and the disabled, have inspired all Americans, and generations of great legal minds.” That’s true.  R.B.G. will be missed by the Left because she was the brains behind the liberal wing of the Court.  She carefully crafted opinions supporting all the nutty notions of the Left.  Plus, as her long friendship with Justice Scalia attests, R.B.G. could disagree without being disagreeable.  But they knew the end was near.  R.B.G. was a sick woman, who battled cancer for years.  Il Duce Obama wanted her to retire while he was president, so he could replace her.  She refused.  She couldn’t have planned her departure any better, in the midst of the most  contentious election in our history.  She may be gone, but she’s still affecting our politics.  R.B.G. was never shy about letting her political feelings be known.  During the 2016 campaign, she called Donald Trump, “a faker.”  She refused to attend Trump State of the Union addresses.  And even her last words, if her granddaughter is to be believed, were purely political, “My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.”  I hope they made that up, because, if that was her last thought on Earth, it diminishes her legacy.  Democrats don’t care if its true, they’re running with it.  Witness Jerry Nadler, “If Sen. McConnell were to force through a nominee during the lame duck session then the incoming Senate should immediately move to expand the Supreme Court.”  That’s a familiar Democrat solution, we can’t win under the rules, so screw the rules.  And what do you mean “if” Jerry?  You crumbs have been promising to do that for months.  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (All Out Crazy) added, “Republicans are violating Justice Ginsburg’s dying wish.”  Being a Democrat means never having to make any sense.  Violating her dying wish?  If that was her wish, so what?  It’s bad enough federal judges constantly meddle in the operations of the other branches of the government, and that they serve for life, but now we’re supposed to permit a judge to reach out from the grave to control the operations of our government?  Crazy Nancy Pelosi has even suggested “she” could “impeach Donald Trump every day” to prevent him from filling the Court vacancy.  So, let me understand this, a living president should be impeached for performing a function explicitly delegated to him by the Constitution, and Republicans in the Senate should be threatened with retribution for performing a function explicitly delegated to that body by the Constitution, but Democrats can demand that a judge’s last wish be carried out without constitutional authority.  This shouldn’t be surprising, Democrats want dead people to vote, so why not let dead judges rule?  President Trump announced he’ll reveal his nominee for the Court tomorrow.  Even now, business owners in downtown DC are boarding up their windows in anticipation of Supreme Court rioting.  Democrats don’t understand irony.  They demand justice, yet they’re willing to indulge in rioting and other violence in pursuit of what they consider justice.  The problem is, they don’t want  justice.  For Democrats, it’s “JUST US.”  “We get what we want, or else.”  Democrats call the nomination improper so soon before an election.  In 2016,  the immortal R.B.G. said a president’s powers don’t end in the 4th year of his term.  No matter.  Circuit Court Judge, former Notre Dame law professor, and Scalia law clerk, Amy Coney Barrett seems to be the favorite.  Super liberal Harvard professor Noah Feldman clerked with Judge Barrett.  He said, “She was legally prepared enough to go on the court 20 years ago.”  Democrats will fight her.  Judge Barrett has seven children, including two adopted Haitians, so she’s not committed to abortion.  Plus, she’s religious.  Can’t have anyone with religious scruples or morals on the Court.  It will get ugly.  They’ve already begun.  The highly irrelevant Hillary Clinton told Democrats to use every possible procedural obstacle to stop the nomination.   You know, just do what you always do.  The detestable Chuck Schumer called Barrett wildly out of the mainstream, adding, “The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice.”  They did numbnuts.  They chose a president and elected a Republican controlled Senate.  Schumer vows, “everything is on the table,” if the seat is filled, including ending the filibuster, adding new States with Democrat Senators, packing the Supreme Court, and abolishing the electoral college.  In other words, if we can’t win by the rules, we’ll just throw out the Constitution and do what we want.  Which, by the way, they were threatening before R.B.G. died.  Then there’s the violence.  CNN moron Don Lemon, “We’re gonna have to blow up the entire system.”  Former CNN agitator Reza Aslan, “If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f***ing thing down.” “Over our dead bodies.  Literally.”  O.K. Reza, if that’s the way you want it.  Here’s Hollywood.  Screenwriter Beau Willimon, “We’re shutting this country down if Trump and McConnell try to ram through an appointment before the election.”  Academia?  Professor Emmett Macfarlane, ‘THERE WILL BE RIOTS” “Burn Congress down before letting Trump try to appoint anyone to SCOTUS.”  How about journalism?  Washington Post political commentator Laura Bassett, “If McConnell jams someone through, which he will, there will be riots.”  All in the name of equal justice under law, you see.  The spectacle is about to begin.  All three rings of the circus will be in operation.  Get the popcorn.
