Ruth Bader Ginsburg defends conservative Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch

[The Hill] Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg defended conservative Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch as "very decent and very smart."

"I can say that my two newest colleagues are very decent and very smart individuals," she said Wednesday at an event in Washington, D.C., according to CNN.

Ginsburg's comments come amid concerns that if she were to die or to retire from the bench, a spot would open up on the nine-member court for President Trump to appoint a third conservative justice and push the ideological balance further to the right.

In an interview with NPR on Tuesday, the 86-year-old justice refuted those concerns, saying she's "very much alive."

Ginsburg is one of the court's four liberal-leaning justices and has served on the bench since 1993. Earlier this month, she praised Kavanaugh for his entirely female staff as a "very important first."

"There is a very important first on the Supreme Court this term, and it's thanks to our new justice, Justice Kavanaugh, whose entire staff is all women. All of his law clerks are women," Ginsburg said at an event held by Georgetown Law, CNN reports.

#1 In other words, Blasey Ford was a liar.

Harris and Booker should be censured by the Senate. Their fraudulent presidential campaigns should end.

These two lies shamelessly about Kavanaugh and amplified the hallucinations of a mendacious nutjob who slandered a good man - a man who has more integrity in his left big toe than these disgusting specimens have combined.

#2 Harris and Booker should be censured by the Senate.

Don't forget Feinstein.
