Ruth Bader Ginsburg, with clerk hires, signals desire to outlast Trump

[Correll]

Ginsburg is a great justice

She has no intention of leaving

When she starts to rot, you will have to let Trump nominate a replacement.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Wonder how many times she's been drunk during a court decision ?

Another stoner and his pipe dreams. View attachment 170858

Dude.....................do you even know what a stoner is? Because according to this post you sure as hell don't. A stoner is someone who smokes marijuana. Your little smiley shows someone who is snorting cocaine. People who snort cocaine are called "coke heads". Please, if you accuse someone of using drugs, at least get the drug and terms right please.

Irrespective of one's politics. The question must be asked, Why does a career military officer have to retire at 59 (unless they get a waiver from Congress) but politicians and judges, they can stay on until they aren't breathing, regardless of age.

Come on, when US judges were originally given as lifetime appointments, the average lifespan was like 50 years old, People died long before their brains turned to oatmeal due to old age.

You know, I've often wondered the same thing. In the military, as an enlisted person, the most you can serve on active duty is 30 years, but if you don't meet certain advancement gates, they can tell you to separate much earlier because of High Year Tenure.

Why can't we do that with Congress critters?

What Is the High Year of Tenure in the US Military?

As long as you are not neglecting your duties, been in serious trouble, an enlisted person with more than six years of service and less than 20 years of service (retirement eligible) who is involuntarily separated (under honorable conditions) is entitled to receive involuntary separation pay (severance pay).

In short (for example), if an Air Force E-4 does not get promoted to E-5 by the time he/she has 8 years of military service, the member will be forced to separate. These rules are strictly enforced especially during times of downsizing and force reduction.

Just seems odd doesn't it? Except that as usual they themselves are exempt from the laws they pass.

Good for Ginsburg.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg hires clerks through 2020 - CNNPolitics

Liberal Harvard law professor Laurence Tribe tweeted: "Great news: Justice Ginsburg has hired a full slate of law clerks through 2020. Take that, 'stable genius' Donald."

Let the old bitty have a freeking brain aneurysm trying to outlast Trump. Hope it keeps her working until she's 100. (She's about 90 now, right?)

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

The old dingbat has got 7 years to go

Only needs to lose the Senate, which could be 2018. But then you're an idiot who can't strategize their way out of a paper bag.

Another retread account is heard from! Come on Mods! Let's do some banning for multiple accounts here!

 

[AsianTrumpSupporter]

As she falls further into dementia, she'll probably become even more liberal than Stalin.

 

[Circe]

Yeah, it's a seriously superannuated Supreme Court. A number in their 70s and 80s. A lot of them are kept going by their clerks alone, who do all the work. There was an op-ed in the WSJ yesterday calling for justices to stop hiring all these clerks and depending on them: one would be plenty, and more than they used to have. Now each has four, and there is a lot of suspicion that some justices are not able to do the work: Clarence Thomas who doesn't talk, for instance. Ginsberg, who has been showing signs of senility the last two years or so.

I really question this no-retirement lifetime appointment business. I think they should retire at 80 at the very least!! 70 would be all right too. They try to outlast every administration and live forever; so do a lot of legislators in their late 70s and 80s. None of this is right.

However, it does seem likely that Trump will get to appoint at least a couple more justices, and he is appointing a whole lot of federal judges now. So that's excellent, and a major reason we elected him.

 

[monkrules]

1- She's the oldest Supreme Court justice
2- She's had cancer TWICE
3- She's also had heart problems

Not exactly the conditions for many more years on the bench. In these kinds of cases retirement or even death is a bad cold away away.

We need a 25th Amendment for Supreme Court Justices. We shouldn't be held hostage to a sick old lady whose mind is probably gone.

But...the country is now being held hostage by a demented president whose mind is certainly gone.

Political action should be taken to get rid of the Orange Filth stinking up our White House (25th Amendment?).

Let's see what happens......they say that sometimes they hire these clerks and then still leave, then the clerks are parceled out to other places in the government....

If we could get two more lefties to leave...that would be awesome......a restoration of the rule of law...

Death is only an undercooked piece of chicken away. HAAA HAAAA!
I can't WAIT to watch the entire LIB MSM wear black armbands and bawl their eyes out for weeks.
Supreme Court Justice Ted Cruz has such a nice ring to it.

Ted Cruz would be an excellent Justice for the SCOTUS. Hell make sure we follow the Constitution religiously. Has the President confirmed he will replace Ginzberg with Cruz?

That will change the morning she opens the paper, and sees her obituary.

Gee, I guess Donald will have to follow Barry's example and push his agenda through "Executive Orders"? Nice of Obama to set that precedent for the Presidents who follow him!
