Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said in a statement on Friday that she is being treated for liver cancer but that she remains able to work "full steam."
"Immunotherapy first essayed proved unsuccessful. The chemotherapy course, however, is yielding positive results. Satisfied that my treatment course is now clear, I am providing this information," Ginsburg said in the statement. The 87-year-old said that she began a course of chemotherapy in May to treat a recurrence of cancer after a February scan revealed lesions on her liver.
Ginsburg, a liberal, is the court's eldest justice. Her health has become the subject of public concern because a vacancy on the nine-judge panel could allow President Donald Trump to nominate a conservative replacement. The court currently has a 5-4 majority of Republican-appointed justices.On May 19, I began a course of chemotherapy to treat a recurrence of cancer. A periodic scan in February followed by a biopsy revealed lesions on my liver.
She should wait until next year before she dies, that way future president Biden can install a fluffy liberal to counterbalance the drunken rapey Brett Kavanaugh.
Good for her... I’m completely on the opposite side politically from her but she should stay as a justice as long as she’s willing to fight this awful sickness
Her time is up but she doesn't want to let go because of Trump.
GinsburgStrong - hang in their girlfriend!! 3
let's hope she gets the very latest immunotherapy. It's curable.
GrizzlyJoeShow sure
She should just resign. Strange people think Trump is unfit health-wise but continue to cheer Ginsburg on.
She just needs to retire at this point. She's holding on til the election but this is sad.
Oh my gosh! RBG, take my liver!
Sorry, this doesn't sound the engine gets enough steam.
