So sorry to hear this, she was an icon. RIP, notorious RBG. (And well, you know. . . . damn.)

So incredibly sad.

My DH was accepted to practice in front of the Supreme Court last year as part of his Social Security Disability practice of many years. He was sworn in last summer in front of the court and we were able to hear several justices speak on their decisions. RBG was one of them. She was tiny!

Damn just when you thought 2020 could not throw any more crap

I'm saddened in so many ways by this. What a remarkable woman she was.
