Everything just changed.

By now you may have heard the news. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away at age 87.

The court will be conservative now, for 30+ years. McConnell wouldn’t hold a hearing on a replacement for Obama’s nominee to replace Scalia who died seven months before the election “because the voters should decide." But you can bet he’ll push this through. And hear me now, even if Trump loses, I fear he will between now and January appoint her replacement and the McConnell-led Senate will approve that person. The conservatives will fight for this with guns in the streets. The lawyers will argue over what’s allowed.

Things are coming to a head. Ominous is how things feel to me.

So with the love of our ancestors coursing through my veins I say be safe and smart everyone. These are our times. Vote like your life depends on it. And if I’m wrong, Hallelujah 🏽. And in the meantime I’m saying a prayer of thanks for the life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg who fought tirelessly to the last for us all.
