YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Damage Report host John Iadarola is joined by Francesca Fiorentini, host of Newsbroke on AJ+ and The Bitchuation Room podcast, to break down the day’s top stories.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died at age 87. Despite blocking President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee in an election year, Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell vowed in a statement on Friday night that “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate”. As two Republicans come out against confirming a nominee before the election, Democrats say no option is off the table in their fight to block Trump. During a rally in Minnesota, Trump launches attacks on Congresswoman of colour and praises the “good genes” of people in Minnesota. A new Biden ad hopes to sway voters with the promise of never hearing from Trump again.

"Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the demure firebrand who in her 80s became a legal, cultural and feminist icon, died Friday. The Supreme Court announced her death, saying the cause was complications from metastatic cancer of the pancreas.

The court, in a statement, said Ginsburg died at her home in Washington, D.C., surrounded by family. She was 87.

"Our nation has lost a justice of historic stature," Chief Justice John Roberts said. "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 tireless and resolute champion of justice.”

Architect of the legal fight for women's rights in the 1970s, Ginsburg subsequently served 27 years on the nation's highest court, becoming its most prominent member. Her death will inevitably set in motion what promises to be a nasty and tumultuous political battle over who will succeed her, and it thrusts the Supreme Court vacancy into the spotlight of the presidential campaign."
