She will do anything to live to either Nov 4 if Trump wins or Jan 21 if Biden wins.
No matter what we will get a corporatist SCOTUS person, even if it is Biden.
If she can make it until November 4, then the new Senate will certainly confirm the nominee, as they are not going to finish that process in seven weeks, and that just after an election and over the top of the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
That was a NEW rules McConnell added AFTER Trump was elected and it was clear they didn't want to play by the rules McConnell MADE UP to justify not having a vote on Obama's nominee. There is absolutely no rule stating any of it. For the so call "Constitutionalist" party, they sure do love not adhering to the Constitution. And I don't want to hear one single GOP member say later that they "personally didn't agree" to whatever shenanigans McConnell pulls when the Democrats do the exact same thing to the GOP. The GOP is not going to enjoy the Karma coming back at them.
Doesn't matter if it's a "rule" or not. The two situations are completely different. Obama was a lame duck POTUS in 2016 (end of his 2nd term, no chance of reelection). Trump is not such in 2020. BIG difference. Anyone who doesn't understand the difference isn't too bright.

HIPPA protections absolutely apply to RGB.
There was nothing unconstitutional in what happened. Political gamesmanship yes, unconstitutional no.
There is no such thing as "balanced". You either follow the constitution as written which is correct, or you rule the way you think things should be. The former is the correct way, the court is not supposed to be a legislative body.

That is a made up justification that is not written anywhere. Don't pretend to support the Constitution, then support whatever made up rules allowed McConnell to refuse to hold a vote for Merrick Garland "to let the voters decide in an election year" then rush to confirm a Trump nominee two months before an election. That is just made up. And the GOP at the end of a second Trump term would find a NEW justification for doing it again, I guarantee it. Everyone knows the GOP just makes up rules while calling themselves Constitutionalists. Complete liars.

OMG- leave old ladies alone!!--- are you her DR? see her chart? her nurse?? spiteful people who pick on old ladies
The press reports on every word she says ... she says broken rib, turns out to be lung cancer. She says infection, turns out to be liver cancer or pancreatic cancer ... or colon cancer.
I’m picking on an old lady, I’m one myself ... BUT, I’m not one of the most important Judges in the World and certainly in the USA. These repeated lies are worse than Unseemly.

She didn't. So RBG is, in fact, a lying liar who lies.
Nice way to wrap up her career.
Her career was wrapped up a while back ... her clerks do the work.
I’ve know people with all 4 of her cancers ... they were all pretty much unable to function AND were considerably younger than RBG + did not have such a crucial job.
The high court's oldest justice and a four-time cancer survivor, Ginsburg, 87, joined the court's telephonic debate Wednesday morning from Johns Hopkins Hospital, where she was recovering from acute cholecystitis, a benign gallbladder condition.
Ginsburg initially sought medical care Monday after the first day of oral arguments held by telephone conference call, a first for the court prompted by the coronavirus pandemic. She received outpatient tests at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C., which confirmed that she had a gallstone blocking her cystic duct, resulting in an infection.
