Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, better known as, the Notorious RBG, accomplished three things on Friday, September 18, 2020; she cemented her legacy as a jurist, who’s unwavering values were faith, family, and fellow man/woman. She opened the eyes of America, and she called out women and Democrats for their ignorance and lack of vision. Justice Ginsburg had a heart for justice. Not justice for democrats. Not justice for agreeing with her. Not justice for women. Not justice for men. Not justice for Jews. And Not justice for Non-Jews. Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s body of work highlights her work for the justice that the scales suggest that every member of the legal profession is to embody, that blind impartial justice that everyone especially disenfranchised, blacks, women, and other minorities are entitled to as American citizens, but aren’t getting. And although, as a Jewish woman she began fighting for her own rights, that fight spilled over into the rights of all women and men.
So, the reality is that if Democrats in 2016 would have kept their eye on the issue, the policies, the consequences of what would happen to the SCOTUS seat of Barack Obama and what would happen to DACA, or what would have to Voting Rights, or what would happen to women’s reproductive rights, and what would happen to the environment, instead of whether or not Hillary Clinton was the one you wanted to support because of personality, Democrats would be the party with a 6-to-3 Supermajority on the Supreme Court and the 280+ seats on the federal bench, not republicans. It’s unfortunate, that Democrats need love to move their policy instead of principle.
