Ruth Bader Ginsburg announces cancer recurrence

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Friday she is undergoing chemotherapy to treat a recurrence of cancer. The treatment is yielding "positive results."

The liberal justice, 87, said she remains "fully able" to continue in her post.

Earlier this week, Ginsburg was treated at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore after having a fever and chills, and undergoing an "endoscopic procedure to clean out a bile duct stent that was placed last August," the court said at the time. Ginsburg said her cancer treatment is unrelated to this week's incident.

    1. @Todd Jenkins I think you’re deluding yourself that a 87 year old woman with multiple health issues is going to beat cancer, I give her 3 to 6 months at most.

  1. I think the bench should be bipartisan automatically. Having one side rule, doesn’t seem like they would be working for ALL Americans.

    1. RandmGye no I don’t think the court should have majority either way. The court should have a wide range of beliefs. There are republicans that vote for democrat legislation and vice versa.

    2. John Freedman you’re not tight. Merrick Garland was filled by Obama after Scalia’s death. Not even before Scalia was out to rest, Mitch McConnell said any appointment made by Obama would be void because it was an Election year. Obama should’ve been able to make that appointment. Especially because the death was in February and Obama had 9 months before Election Day.

    3. @Erica Amaya People demand an impartial and unbiased court, then complain when the justices appointed by their party don’t rule their way on an issue. Ideally, justices should rule based on a neutral interpretation of the Constitution, but if you look at certain justices’ records (RBG) you find they rule straight ideology, even when such rulings are directly and blatantly contrary to the Constitution. This would be why RBG is so beloved by liberals. Ideally, no justice should be favored by either side, as they all should have made unfavorable rulings to both sides at some point in their tenure. Chief Roberts would be a good example of this.

  2. Supreme court really need to be reformed, its really idiotic if they have left/right influence, it should be independence or at least has balance cap to make sure the odds are same.

    1. @Big Bear Hungry I think all the police should leave New York and leave Bill de Blasio and the Cuomo boys all by themselves let them fend for themselves!!

    2. @Richard C hance your evil and you support an evil party and that old battle-axe 👿

    1. I doubt that, an 87 year old woman with multiple health issues who is now riddled with cancer is not going to continue holding death back for very long.

    1. @Fady Shia
      if this god *gave* you free will then you shouldn’t be punished for using it !

    2. …and when she passes, give us all the strength to accept and support her replacement, whether it happens before or after the re-election. We do not need another fiasco, like the Kavanaugh hearings.

    1. Howard Roth
      She’s almost 90 years old 4 1/2 feet tall and like 60 lbs… her handlers tell her what to do.
      Very selfish of the liberals looking the other way on this. Sad really.

    2. @Jamtommy1 She couldn’t stay awake during a state of the union speech. No doubt she falls asleep when she actually is at work.

    3. Jeremiah how so ? I’m sure you can’t answer because you have zero facts come on chicken tard let’s debate your idiotic comment

  3. This idea of keeping her alive by all means necessary until the election is both cruel and selfish.

    1. Really “cruel and selfish?” Trying to take women’s reproductive rights away is SELFISH. conservatives trying to take LGBTQ rights away is CRUEL. keeping kids in detention centers is DISGUSTING. ALL things that this administration AND Supreme Court (conservative members), have tried to do in the past. He’s already gotten 2 conservative appointees so no. YOU are wrong. she is doing everything in her power to make sure that those things DONT happen. Do you’re fucking research before you ever try and babble our ridiculous bullshit like that.

  4. She is going to stay because she doesn’t want to court to have a bigger conservative majority

    1. @Connie Hahn These comments are what divides this country and will lead to the next civil war. I’m not aTrump fan, but his appointees to scotus were qualified and not unreasonable for a GOP president.

    2. @Connie Hahn . You’re not paying attention. 7 of the 9 Justices just sided with Trump. That means 2 liberals voted in his favor.

  5. I hope everyone takes a moment to say a prayer for this great lady. What an accomplished life!

  6. She is one of those tough ladies that I admire and she is staying alive to SPITE Trump and HE has given that amazing lady a reason to LIVE!!!

    1. @CasualVideos it is just a matter of time now….it sounds like she’s beginning to accept the reality of the inevitable and by letting everyone know, she’s really just setting the stage for the end now.
