White House To Put Forward SCOTUS Nominee 'In The Coming Days'
2020-09-19
[DAILYWIRE] President Donald Trump
...Oh, noze! Not him!...
will put forth a nominee to replace Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who passed away Friday evening from complications of pancreatic cancer, "in the coming days," according to sources that spoke to ABC News.

As the Daily Wire reported Friday evening, the 87-year-old Justice Ginsburg passed away "from complications of metastatic pancreas cancer," according to the Supreme Court.

"Our nation has lost a justice of historic stature," Chief Justice John Roberts said in a statement. "We at the Supreme Court have lost a cherished colleague. Today we mourn but with confidence that future generations will remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg as we knew her, a tired and resolute champion of justice."

Speculation turned immediately to the vacancy left on the court as a result of Ginsburg’s death, as well as to whether the president and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) would fulfill their promise to nominate a potential replacement immediately and begin Senate confirmation hearings as soon as possible, despite the looming presidential election.
