White House spokesperson Judd Deere said Barrett already has distinguished her personal views from her responsibility as a judge. “As Judge Barrett said on the day she was nominated, ‘A judge must apply the law as written. In July, the Supreme Court did, in fact, throw out the panel’s ruling and ordered a new look at the case.

(AP Photo/Craig Fritz, File)WASHINGTON – Capping days of commemorations of her extraordinary life, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg becomes the first woman in American history to lie in state in the U.S. Capitol. Ginsburg, who died last week at age 87, also will be the first Jewish-American to lie in state and just the second Supreme Court justice. Spectators booed and chanted “vote him out” as the president, who wore a mask, stood silently near Ginsburg's casket at the top of the court's front steps.

Ginsburg died at the age of 87 on Sept. 18 and is the first women to lie in state at the Capitol. Mourners gathered to honor Ginsburg under coronavirus distancing restrictions with the nation in political turmoil. Spectators booed and chanted “vote him out” as the president stood silently near Ginsburg’s casket at the top of the court’s front steps.

Several polls ahead of the 2016 presidential election suggested Trump supporters were at least somewhat more likely to say Supreme Court nominations mattered to them. But more recent polling shows the gap between Trump and Biden voters has narrowed – or even reversed. And an August CNN poll found 47% of Biden supporters, but just 32% of Trump supporters, labeled nominations as “extremely” important to them. But with a Supreme Court vacancy, he again is swallowing hard to support Biden in November. But many Trump supporters backed the president’s push to fill the seat now, hypocrisy be damned.

Since Ginsburg's death on Friday sparked a battle over the future of the Supreme Court, Trump and Biden have fought to define the lens through which voters view the 2020 contest. Biden wants the election to be a referendum on Trump and his failure to control a pandemic that has killed 200,000 Americans or address the nation's larger health care issues. Trump wants to focus on the court fight to unite the party and energize the GOP's base. Those close to the Trump campaign privately acknowledge it's helpful mostly because it shifts the conversation away from Trump's divisive leadership. His next Supreme Court nomination would be his third.

(AP Photo/Alex Brandon, File)NEW YORK – A presidential campaign that was already tugging at the nation’s most searing divides has been jolted by the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, potentially reshaping the election at a moment when some Americans were beginning to cast ballots. That decision cast a long political shadow, prompting Pete Buttigieg, the former South Bend, Indiana, mayor who mounted a spirited bid for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, to make expansion of the Supreme Court a centerpiece of his campaign.

Ginsburg’s death could significantly affect the presidential race, further stirring passions in the deeply divided nation as the campaign pushes into its stretch run. She “stood for all of us.”A confirmation vote in the Senate is not guaranteed, even with a Republican majority. Typically it takes several months to vet and hold hearings on a Supreme Court nominee, and time is short ahead of the election. With a slim GOP majority, 53 seats in the 100-member chamber, Trump’s choice could afford to lose only a few.

(AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)WASHINGTON, D.C. – Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Monday that those like her who support an Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution should start over in trying to get it passed rather than counting on breathing life into the failed attempt from the 1970s. “I'd like it to start over.”Congress sent the amendment, which guarantees men and women equal rights under the law, to the states in 1972. In addition to Virginia, Nevada and Illinois also voted to ratify the amendment after the deadline, in 2017 and 2018 respectively. So if you count a latecomer on the plus side, how can you disregard states that said we've changed our minds?”Ginsburg has previously expressed the view that the amendment “fell three states short of ratification.”Ginsburg has been a champion of the Equal Rights Amendment for decades. She said her answer is “not quite.”Ginsburg noted that every Constitution in the world written since 1950 has the equivalent of an Equal Rights Amendment.

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was sworn in to the Supreme Court about a year ago, but a newly investigated allegation in a New York Times report has people calling for his impeachment. Democratic leadership has brought up impeachment proceedings on President Trump multiple times, and two presidents have been impeached in America's history, but can the government actually impeach a Supreme Court justice who holds a lifetime position? The process of impeaching a Supreme Court justice is very similar to impeaching a president. He was put on the Court through a sham process and his place on the Court is an insult to the pursuit of truth and justice. https://t.co/Yg1eh0CkNl Julin Castro (@JulianCastro) September 15, 2019This new allegation and additional corroborating evidence adds to a long list of reasons why Brett Kavanaugh should not be a Supreme Court justice.
