highly likely imho that barrett would be a high choice. dems will count on trying to gain womans votes for 2020 re rbg, with their usual fear and driving a wedge between people. biden/harris have likely polled and determined they can gain the most rioters if they announce they will nominate a proabortion black woman, then they turn attention on hating trump for denying that.
McConnell would have two to three months to orchestrate a Supreme Court confirmation, which could still be possible after the election during the so-called lame duck session before the new Congress — and potentially a new president — come to power in January.
There would first be that 30 to 45 day background check period. About a week later, there would be a meeting among lawmakers for an "executive session," which has its own rules of procedure.

The four women justices—all associates—who have served on the Supreme Court are Sandra Day O'Connor (1981–2005); Ruth Bader Ginsburg (1993–present); Sonia Sotomayor (2009–present) and Elena Kagan (2010–present). The latter two, nominated by President Barack Obama, each earned a distinctive footnote in history. Confirmed by the U.S. Senate on August 6, 2009, Sotomayor became the first Hispanic on the Supreme Court. When Kagan was confirmed on August 5, 2010, she changed the gender composition of the court as the third woman to serve simultaneously.
Sandra Day O'Connor
Justice Sandra Day O'Connor is the 102nd person to sit on the Supreme Court. Born in El Paso, Texas on March 26, 1930, she graduated from Stanford Law School in 1952, where she was a classmate of future Justice William H. Rehnquist. Her career included civilian and private practice, and, after moving to Arizona, she became active in Republican politics. She was an assistant attorney general in Arizona and ran for and won a state judgeship before being appointed for the Arizona Court of Appeals.
When Ronald Reagan nominated her for the Supreme Court, he was fulfilling a campaign promise to nominate a woman. After a unanimous confirmation vote in the Senate, O'Connor took her seat on August 19, 1981. She generally took a middle road on many issues, finding in favor for state's rights and tough rules on crime, and was a swing vote on rulings for affirmative action, abortion, and religious neutrality. Her most controversial vote was that which helped suspend Florida's presidential ballot recount in 2001, ending Al Gore's candidacy and making George W. Bush president. She retired from the court on January 31, 2006.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the 107th justice, was born March 15, 1933, in Brooklyn, New York, and studied law at Harvard and Columbia University Law schools, graduating from Columbia in 1959. She worked as a law clerk, and then at the Columbia Project on International Civil Procedure in Sweden. She also taught law at Rutgers and Columbia universities, before heading up the Women's Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
Ginsburg was appointed a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals by Jimmy Carter in 1980, and was nominated to the Supreme Court by Bill Clinton in 1993. The Senate confirmed her seat by a vote of 96 to 3, and she was sworn in on August 10, 1993. Her important opinions and arguments reflect her lifelong advocacy for gender equality and equal rights, such as Ledbetter versus Goodyear Tire & Rubber, which led to the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009; and Obergefell v. Hodges, which ruled same-sex marriage legal in all 50 states.
Sonia Sotomayor
The 111th Justice, Sonia Sotomayor was born on June 25, 1954, in the Bronx, New York City and earned her law degree from Yale Law School in 1979. She served as a prosecutor in the New York County District Attorney's office and was in private practice from 1984 to 1992.
She became a federal judge in 1991, after nomination by George H. W. Bush, and joined the U.S. Court of Appeals in 1998 nominated by Bill Clinton. Barack Obama nominated her for the Supreme Court, and after a contentious Senate battle and a vote of 68–31, she took her seat on August 8, 2009, as the first Hispanic justice. She is considered part of the liberal bloc of the court, but places Constitutional and Bill of Rights principles ahead of any partisan considerations.
Elena Kagan
Justice Elena Kagan is the 112th justice on the court, born April 28, 1960 on the Upper West Side of New York City. She earned her law degree from Harvard University in 1986, and worked as a law clerk for Justice Thurgood Marshall, was in private practice, and taught at the University of Chicago and Harvard Law Schools. From 1991–1995, she worked at the White House as a counsel for Bill Clinton, eventually achieving the role of Deputy Director of the Domestic Policy Council.
Justice Kagan was Dean of the Harvard Law School in 2009 when she was selected as Solicitor General by Barack Obama. She was nominated to the Supreme Court by Obama, and after a battle in the Senate, she was confirmed by a 63–37 vote and took the seat on August 7, 2010. She has had to recuse herself on many decisions, the result of having worked in the executive branch for Bill Clinton, but voted to support the Affordable Care Act in King v. Burwell and same sex marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges.

me thinks we have some game theory goin on, with durham, rbg state funeral, and filling the sc spot. election, riot control, etc.
benefit is DS/MSM is limited on drama/narrative focus so potus may be able to play some cards that cant be 100% focused on by them.
like ending pandemic and restoring liberty, denying that as an excuse for election accomodations. seems like the table is set for this. numbers are down, PA ruling on measures being unconstitutional, hcq use being reversed by the states suppressing it, antifa rioters sedition, threats to indict complicit dem politicians, etc.
i almost think exposure and movement success, re. infor warfare makes the look to twitter…… scenario less needed.
there was a day not long ago that the ds/msm/dems had the ability to convince the silent majority that US Mil/troops were coming after them if potus ever deployed them against anarchists. dems also would rely on calling a crisis and requesting help from UN, EU, China to occupy dem states to protect from potus.
potus has been calculated and cool and i do not think dems can lead an insurrection and gain support.
the woman starting with oconnor under reagan seem to be DS power plays, she was likely thought to be conservative and played the middle (power/swing vote).
sotomayor was a con game, christian but not in voting.
rbg was an activist.
kagan seems level headed and jewish, so will use her vote accordingly. (not for the countries christian majority, and the global view of thing not our constitution)
i do think ACB- barrett has a strong track record and is the best political choice.
not only a conservative but a opposer of the fed admin state which hurts our republic.
an originalist meaning back to the basics- small gov and liberty. hopefully.
>>10707202 RBG death stopped talk of Soros….Convenient
perhaps anon and midnite riders can create narrative of GS influencing our legal system, based on RBG vacancy, any link to BHO SC choices???
pragmatic questions of whether activists should buy our legal system and what americans can do about it.
