Every judge in the Supreme Court should be a strict Constitutionalist. Their job is to rule if a law, a verdict, or a sentence is Constitutional. When they apply partisan politics, we all lose.
I agree. When they go all partisan then that is when you start losing your rights and the Constitution begins to lose validity.
But isn't the argument originalism vs living constitutionalism? Is there a prescribed method for reading the constitution that is enshrined in the constitution? Did our founding fathers leave us with instructions in this regard or did they have views on this? I'm honestly asking as I don't know the answer.
@@dennisd9875 I would imagine the constitution is read with precedent and case law in mind. I think where you get into issues is when there is nothing in history to support the constitution which means it has to be interpreted. For example... In the case of the 1st Amendment of free speech how would it be interpreted in the digital age where we now have texting, email, television, radio, TH-cam, etc. You then have to look at the intent of what they wanted in establishing the 1st amendment and apply the constitution accordingly. You definitely don't want it off of the current opinions of party politics.
That’s been the biggest complaint about the Supreme Court. Their not even close to being Strictly constitutional! That’s exactly why cases go to them... Search and seizure, African American civil rights, abortion, police brutality, sexual assault on campuses, mass shootings. They lean in favor of popularity, minus one generation. Instead they should act as resolute constitutional oracles not passing judgements equivalent to my hip aunt & casual alcoholic.
AMEN !!
“There's nothing in the Constitution that says the president stops being the president in his last year,"
-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 2016 New York Times
Conservatives hate progress!!! they are like Afghans but on the west.
@@Effectsmen source?
yeah, and then Senate Republicans shit all over that concept so the Democrats aren't obligated to abide by it.
Ginsburg made her dissenting opinion known in 2016, the Senate rendered their decision, Ginsburg accepted the decision and graciously welcomed Gorsuch to the court, then cited the new precedent in her dying wish. Although this isn't technically a matter of case law, it more or less follows the same logic. It's not hypocritical to ask that a principle, once established, be consistently followed.
Effectsmen Unlike Progressives, Afghans don’t support the aborting of 300,000 of their own children per year.
The Republicans need to start acting like they hold the Senate & WH. There is nothing the Demorats can do. Do your f-ing job & fill the seat.
Agreed
FILL THE SEAT! FILL THE SEAT! FILL THE SEAT!
like 2016 right
The Republicans better show some balls and do there job and fill the dam seat. Same scenario, the Democrats would fill the seat and wouldn’t care nothing about a dying wish. We all know it and so do the Democrats.
A-freaking-men!!!
The fact she even tried to control her succession with that statement is dodgy.
Just goes to show how corrupt the democrats are
The tyrant wishes to live on in death
Btw, I love the word "dodgy" lol
@mmaposer It actually doesn't matter wether she said it or not, she's assumed room temperature and has no authority or say on this earth anymore.
As trump openly goes around talking about how he should have more than 2 terms in office? Yeah, you guys can eat sh*t.
only in the mind of a Democrat can someone give away something that isn't theirs.
LOL very true :-)
Well said!
Very Well Said.

Why must the court be political/partisan? When a court is partisan, it is no longer objective, and its rulings can easily be disregarded.
Best thing I’ve read all day!! But at same time it comes down to the fact that either we want constitution preserved or changed..
Answer: One side wants to legislate from the bench, because they are very far removed from the founding fathers' ideals/worldview and Congress is useless. Therefore, partisanship.
Please show me a single thing in a America that isn't partisan.
Your two-party system is tearing your nation apart.
It is partisan because the judges are appointed by elected officials. Of course they will have partisan political expediency as a concern in making that appointment.
ziglaus our nation ain’t as tore apart as the world might think, the silent majority still is in charge! Don’t buy the hype!!
I'm sad for her soul. But she was very wrong supporting pre-birth infanticide. I'm glad she is no longer on the supreme court, but not happy it was by death.
WELL SAID
Agreed. I wish she found Jesus first. Maybe she was saved... But I’d be surprised to find out she was. I want everyone to go to heaven but I don’t care when evil people die. I just don’t.
@@jessejive117 thanks for sharing.
I was sad when I learned about her death, when my mom started cheering and I got a little sadder
why? Death comes for us all, she had 87 years, pretty amazing years by most standards as well.
She placed her partisan political positions ahead of the health and safety of the nation.
Given the current situation, that's rich. Pretty sure Ruth Bader Ginsburg didn't condition states getting PPE to combat the pandemic on governors being nice to her.
@@jackmillwater3604 No she was too busy lying about her medical condition. But nice try with the made up slurs.
@@machomaam4975 "But you know, it's a two-way street. They have to treat us well also." Donald Trump
Tell me, what part of that is made up? The fact is that the president is a petty narcissist who cares more about his image than the citizens of the United States. Just let me know if you'd like to provide other examples of your idol being a completely worthless sack of crap.
Ahead of her health as well.

Down to 150 biden says the rest died during his speech
yfz450rx You realize that by saying that you are making the country worse. :)
There should be a mandatory retirement age for all Supreme Court justices. By 80 they should retire.
What we need is a Constitutional amendment fixing the number of Supreme Court Justices and then imposing a single term limit twice the number of Justices. The terms all run out on an off election years so politicians are less likely to pull shenanigans when picking their replacement. Also set a time limit for how long the Senate can sit on it. We don't want seats being left open for years on end. If the Senate fails approve a nominee the President can put a Justice in for the interim until the Senate can make up their mind. If a Justice dies, or retires before their term is up someone is nominated to only fill the rest of their term. If it was less than a third the length of the term they can be considered for being renominated to that seat. So of we have 9 Justices there would be an 18 year term and the most an individual could conceivably serve do to retirements is 24 at most. The length of these terms and the fact they only get one means it maintains a Judges independence from politics while they serve, but also doesn't mean the hold these seats indefinitely and making their health and well being a high stakes gambit.
Dam right
No I disagree either they die or retire. Plenty of people these days are living to 90 and are still functioning fine but some people start getting Alzheimer’s at age 60 so a age can’t really determine when they should be kicked out.
especially the speaker of the house
@@ShamanMcLamie id honestly also wouldnt mind having a amendment stating that if the justices were to have a politial preference there can only be so many from that party at a time,
since theres 9 at any time,
3 Republican, 3 Democrat and 3 Independent, that way it cant be partisan, as they would need the independents votes as well.
and to add onto that, if a justice were to die or retire they can only be replaced by someone of that affiliation, in otherwords if a 1 republican were to die or retire, that seat can only be replaced by a republican, so on and so forth, so you cant then make it where it becomes 3 dems, 1 independent and 5 republicans, you can only have a 3/3/3.
that could go a long way to fixing things, but obviously no political affiliation would be best, but that proposal of mine would be a compromise.
She fought valiantly for her life, but I have also seen an unborn baby valiantly try to escape the vacuum tube. That’s all I have to say.

She's probably wondering now why God slammed the gates of heaven in her face lol
The sound of crickets.
bro shut upppp lmao you sound so stupid. This woman’s death has nothing to do with abortion.
When did the senate become make a wish foundation?
Back in 2016 when the Republicans wished the Democrats would leave the next Justice pick to the new President, which happened even some Republicans Gave their WORD they would wait next time if it was to happen at the end of a first term President for the next President to choose. Here we are as Prophesized by Graham and Other Republicans .
1 Question what happened to their WORD , by dishonoring their own words they are Scum. I grew up poor in the Midwest didn't have much but I was taught and it's an old saying " That a Man is only as good as his WORD" by my Grandfather. Republicans on record going back on their WORD and they say don't trust the Left LMFAO at the Hypocrisy.
@@jackflash9735 and the democrats are also on the opposite side of 2016 what about their WORD or does it not matter to you because you know it's worth less than shit anyway.
jackflash Obama nominated a justice anyway. Senate said “nah” and the next president got to pick.
Durrrrrrrrrrr
@@FluffDictator SMH wow you nailed it Democrats are lying, yes I know that , I also know the Democrats had 9 months to push that pick through but decided against it so instead of wasting time vetting and confirming a pick in an election year they Opted to let the next President choose!
@@FluffDictator If the president has a senate majority he get his judge through that has been the case most of the time historically. That's politics. The dems ran a sham impeachment with no evidence and allowed no defense witnesses. That's politics ..... and TDS.
I hear all these kind words from Conservatives over Ginsburg's passing and yet I know I would never hear that from the other side if a Conservative Judge died.
Amen to that. These Democrats and liberals have NO SENSE of decorum and proper behavior.
@@vxy357 yea ok, keep telling urself that🤣
@@thefrenchfryguy9959 It's the truth. Look how Democrats, progressives, and Liberals behave as oppose to the Republicans and conservatives. it's almost night and day.
Ginsburg loved the US. She loved and cherished its principles. Genuinely. I realize on certain issues people have difficulty with nuance- like abortion- but Ruth was not a Marxist. She was not a radical. She believed in the USA and wanted a best form for it, not to dissolve it. She wasn’t a diabolical human hell bent on destroying freedom. I’m a libertarian anti Marxist and Ruth didn’t bother me one bit. My only concern in this country is for Marxism and corruption. She is neither of those things.
That’s completely false. Biden and Obama actually spoke at McCains funeral, the leader of the GOP however wasn’t invited. George H.W. Bush’s funeral basically stopped coverage on CNN and MSNBC. Just not accurate.
Not sure her “dying wish” really occurred (by her, if at all).
I serious doubt it as well. However, she probably has said that or something to that effect in recent history...and that's what the supposed granddaughter is trying to pass off as a death bed statement. Sad as hell that she was so vindictive though.
No kidding. Their proof of life in August was an obviously fake wedding pic so I doubt she has been alive for some time.
@@EzekielMessenger I don't know...but speaking of that. did you see the story of how some crazy Leftists actually got upset at that couple...real or not? lol They've been getting attacked and accused of KILLING her by getting her to officiate the ceremony? LMAO! They claim those people caused the old bat to catch the Chinavirus! :D
@@TLL1969 That attack was quashed in hours by big tech and big media as usual. It may have been misdirection. Here is the image for reference nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/08/rbg-wedding.jpg now imagine that this is your historic wedding and the wedding photographer only takes this one weird picture of her that conveniently hides the hardest parts to blend with the light. In order to believe this image is real and is the only image taken you must believe that smart phones don't exist and women do not behave like women posting as much to social media as possible for status. There were supposedly 100+ guests and no one takes a picture .... maybe they confiscated every device. Also in this pic she has been fighting pancreatic cancer for years and she has somehow gained weight since the last one.
@@EzekielMessenger Oh yeah...I wouldn't put it past them. I wonder if they used the same PR minions that makes it appear that Kim Jong-un is still alive. lol I wasn't familiar with that theory...hadn't thought of that...but you could be right - does make sense.

@@usernamesrlamo Being petty against the good of a nation isn't quite being a class act...
I disagreed with her A LOT. But, I’m old school and believe we are all neighbors at the end of the day. Like Scalia being best friends with her, we need to get back to having mutual respect and a civil society with those we disagree with. We need to banish the anger and hate from our hearts.
Scalia's dying wish: Catch my assassin.
If her last thought centered on politics, her soul is in dire trouble.
It was definitely not a last thought, just something she confided in her granddaughter weeks before her death. It’s a catcher headline to call it a “dying wish”, though.
lol imagine believing this
She's rotting in hell now
She did say she didn’t wanna live to see another Trump Term. Sooooo she got her wish.

They’re going to run out of tissues. Time to stock up
It's about to get even worse 😝
And the thing is, it’s self-inflicted.

Make A Wish is for children. Too bad, you hag.
I don't like a lot of what the Democrats are saying these days, but they're not wrong on this one buddy. The hypocrisy is undeniable and it's embarrassing. Republicans would _lose their shit_ if the Dems completely blocked a conservative judge for a year out of "principle" and then fully abandoned said "principle" once it stopped benefiting them. Hypocrisy is hypocrisy.
Yeah I don't believe that was her last wish that is something Hollywood would have in another one of there bad movies.

The only thing the demorats have on Barrett is that she is a Catholic. Watch this be their argument. She is too religious to make a clear decision. Plus she went to Notre Dame. And we know how much they hate ND.
@@rickklein7792 I keep hearing that she is too religious. WTF... then she should never have made it to her current role as judge. And Ted Cruz was said to have one hand on the Bible and one on the Constitution, yet he did pretty well in the 2016 primary, and I heard nothing about his religious views. Had Trump not out-performed him, I would have voted for Cruz. P.S. If they push too hard, they are going to loose the few evangelicals they have. The other potential is Cuban who HATES communism.

What, they never taught you the dying wish clause embedded in the constitution of the United States of America lol
If she actually said that as her dying wish it shows how much respect she had for the Constitution.
Let me just say that as an Australian the fact that America invests so much into the Supreme Court and that it is a source of so much division is beyond bizarre. The counterpart here is the High Court, literally no one on either side of the political aisle care about who is appointed. It has never been an election issue here and every time a replacement needs to be made the media barely covers it and the parties somehow manage to just do it without any fuss even if in times of divided government.
So putting ideology aside, I think at least part of the reason is that there is a mandatory retirement age of 70 years for each justice on the court, and we have 13 seats instead of 9. Structural reform along those lines could ease up some of the division but given how things are in America and how bipartisanship is basically dead I don't see how any side could do that without it being seen as a power grab.
That is because starting in the 60's radicals started to use the courts to get what they could not win at the ballot boxes. Perfect example of the judges who blocked Trump's travel ban even though the law let him do it. The SCOTUS allowed this.
Luigi Vincenzo Luigi. I'm an American lawyer, and you make a very good observation. The American Constitution is a brilliant document. It is, however, not without it laws. One of those flaws that has led to the mess we are in, in this regard, is this: the document was written at a time when life-expectancy was no more than 36-38 years. In an attempt to insulate judges from immediate political pressures, under the US Constitution, federal judges are confirmed for life by the Senate.
No one then ever expected judges to sit in the Surpreme Court, literally, for decades. This situation was not anticipated, but life tenure at the Court when expectancy is now in the 80's and nearing the 90's has created this mess. An open seat is considered now to be a Republic-defining event that lasts for generations. This flaw has resulted in a hyperpolitcal view of the Court and, also, has moved to delegitimize it.
Every open seat is a fight over the direction of the law that may last for generations.
There isn't any good solution to this problem, short of amending the Constitution - a process that, especially in this repect, is practically impossible.
It's a mess.
Yes.
RBG should have stepped down when she got her pancreatic cancer diagnoses and allowed Obama to make the next appointment.
She didn't.
It's hardly the Republicans fault now that she choose not to do.
It is, though, a mess, and the Left may, indeed, as Shapiro says, be willing to tear down other American institutions down to get what it wants.
There is genuine outrage. Imo, however, such outrage is misdirected because it should not be directed towards any party, but towards the fact that the Constitution is flawed and should be corrected to save everyone here this turmoil.
If RGB was required to step down at 70 as there, America would not be in this crises.
She brought chaos on herself and in the rest of us,
@@wallybeep I agree, there should be some bench mark when a Justice must step down from the court. If we knew this was a Justice last term, the President and Senate could spend a year debating a replacement.
@@wallybeep
We did have a referendum in 1977 that amended the constitution to provide a retirement age for federal judges which passed overwhelmingly, but even if we didn't have that amendment I don't think Australians would be as divided over the court as in America.
I'm not saying that we aren't polarised, issues like immigration, climate change and how to deal with China divide us as much if not more than in America, but so many other issues just... don't, for whatever reason. Gun control and universal healthcare come to mind, both parties and the Australian public at large overwhelmingly support such policies. There just seems to be a much broader array of issues in America that have been tainted by the Left/Right culture war.
Luigi Vincenzo this mess is more complicated than can be explained here, but, in short, there is zero electoral currency in compromise anymore. Compromise as politics operates today doest not help re election chances, but rather harms them.
The fault IS largely institutional, but the devolution of all regular media into pure commentary on all sides hasn't helped.
That said, if say, Justices had 12-year terms or some such thing - there would be less of a sense that one judge is the property of one side or the other.
The fact that they are there for generations just hasn't led to much good.
These justices used to be confirmed by the senate with substantial majorities of both.
No longer.
The perception is their votes on cultural issues especially, run according to the party line from which they were were associated.

Hi Ben! You know, I said that the democrats would come undone when RBG passed and they have and the thing that drives them crazy is that they sat the rules "" Harry Reid "" years ago and now it has bit them on the ass...
No matter who gets RBG's seat, there is STILL a conservative majority on the Supreme Court; making this whole thing way overblown. As for the whole "dying wish" thing, whoever came up with that story needs to be fired. Besides having no legal standing, it sounds like the plot point to a bad Hallmark/Lifetime movie.
Gorsuch and Roberts are RINOs
there should be NO Conservative majority OR Democrat Majority on the supreme court it should be completely non partisan and devoid of political leaning.
@@TheFallinhalo I agree. Unfortunately, we don't live in the world that "should be," we live in the world that "is."

Me: That's not how government works.
Thanks for the update & all the historical facts about nominations. Helps clear things up considerably.
TY🙏
The reason why Obama didn’t go forward with his nomination is because they all thought Hillary was going to win, how sad 🤣 for the Democrats.
You can't fix stupid.
He did go forward with his nomination? He nominated Garland and the Senate refused to hold a hearing. What am I missing here?
I’m not good with politics so correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the right do the same thing with Merrick Garland with 11 months left in Obama’s presidency.
Obama could recess appoint Garland if he wanted to.

Scalia had no dieing wish since I believe he was assassinated!! Sorry!!
@Release The Karen But it still doesn't matter.
“release the Karen” asks to what end? The Supreme Court had already heard the arguments for Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association and were prepared to vote on it in June. Scalia would have been the deciding vote in favor of Friedrichs. But since he died in February the vote was tied at 4 to 4 and the right to work Issue involving unions didn’t come up again until until several years later with the Janus decision. The Democrats lost hugely with that decision. Now you know, to what end.
Well, he obviously was. Epstein didn't kill himself, and Scalia didn't die of natural causes. Period. Something's clearly rotten in Denmark, and I suspect the death toll will only accelerate in the mad scramble to cover it all up.
@Release The Karen - Yes, he was conservative. He died while Obama was in office.
Release The Karen : I think you’re absolutely right Karen, Republicans as well as Democrats need a limited amount of time in office. Therefore reelect President Trump this November and he will get the ball rolling on term limits for senators and representatives.
Common Sense is a beautiful thing thank you for doing what you do
One of your very best opinion pieces to date. You have allowed me to see so many places suddenly fit into place that I feel overwhelmed...I may need to sit down. Seriously Ben..well done!!
Ben makes another excellent argument. He's amazing!
john roberts name on the "lolita express".......he is held under blackmail
Was that the same John Roberts though? Common name.
@@BloominOnion1 might've have been the other john roberts, although photo release of the john roberts swimming with some buddies, with bill clinton included at a tropical desination....is out
Ben, never stop teaching the truth👏👌👍
Very informative. Thank you.
Not sure why dems are in a panic over this.......they never had a chance anyway.
I’m voting for trump but there’s some hypocrisy here. We all remember the arguments from the republicans in 2016 over Obama’s choice. Come on Ben... this is almost laughable.
They should never have done that. They should have just said "it's just politics." When Democrats rammed through Obamacare with no Republican votes it was just politics.
I remember at the time some Republican Senators specifically mentioned the same party vs. different party distinction. It wasn't always stated probably because they feared such "complexity" wouldn't resonate with the public.
It’s official, 2020 is RUTHless
How do I like twice

Ouff thats good

Hello , from Australia , thanks for clarifying and making sense of the issue .
I guarantee that while on her deathbed pondering meeting her Maker, RBG'S "dying wish" had nothing to do with her Supreme Court successor.
Ben - your reading is sweet. The Democrats see the Constitutions as poetry. On target.
Ofc they panic. They have no way to deal with reality.
When Ben talks I listen
Brilliantly put Ben!
“Dems called her the Notorious RBG because she was slaying queen”
SCJ AMY CONEY BARRETT!
Amen brothers. Amen.
I always say... we’re.... fighting for the soul of America.
I don’t believe that was her last wish. Family can say what they want. Fill that seat.
Ben Shapiro for SCOTUS
Ben Shapiro will never be more than a fast-talking conservative dumbass on the internet. Mark. My. Words.
@@carl1415 kinda rude!
Now THAT would make some heads explode.
Why is the number of Supreme Court seats not in the constitution. It’s a real oversight
That would be a great addition to the constitution.
The Notorious RBG HAHAHAHAHA ! couldn't help to laugh at that
Ben what's is disclosing is an amazing analysis !!!!!
I think she died a while back and they have just kept her on ice as long as they could.
"Weekend at Ruthie's" lol!
Not to worry commicrats, she's still voting for hiden biden!
Let me cash in on the wishing-well too:
It's my dying wish the expenses of my burial(among other things) NOT be placed upon me or my family.
There!
Okay, that is hilarious. I’m stealing that, Joshua, but I will credit you when I use it.
@@theonlyguiltymaninshawshan7909
Haha, be my guest. ;D
That is possible. Donate your entire body to the University of Texas at Galveston and there will be no burial, no expenses.
Joshua Smith that’s brilliant...I recall the meme from years ago
Info - the average funeral costs are approx $10k
Depressed person - “I can’t even afford to die...!”
@@trayolphia5756 lol, that's really something, isn't it?!
Ruth Nader necklace in thumbnail looks like it’s from wakanda
I thought that was yoda at first 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Human feces, she was"
~now that's Yoda.
RBG... PROOF THERE NEEDS TO BE TERM LIMITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First and foremost, I don't believe RBG's daughter even a little bit. That's a flat-out lie.
-
Second and lesser-most, I don't mourn RBG's passing, because the *only* reason I know of her existence is because of her job-position --- a position which she routinely failed at. And if her granddaughter is to be believed, she failed at her job until she had no pulse, because her "dying wish" isn't Constitutional. Constitutionally, the President nominates, and the Senate approves.
-
If RBG felt that her seat being filled by a liberal President was that important, she should've retired under Obama. But on this one point I will not blame her, because her friends in the MSM lied to her and all of us about what the polls were saying. They were trying to *make* the future, not *predict* it. So in RBG's defense, she probably just assumed that she could bow-out under four years of HRC.
-
It's ironic that this situation is unfolding the way it is, *not* because of a spontaneous death, but because of liberal lies. If pollsters had told the truth, we possibly -- or even probably -- wouldn't be having this discussion now, because RBG would've stepped-down under Obama.
-
Either way, I don't care. Most of the problems right now are a result of leftism, and RBG was part of that problem. Sad day for some, but not for America - not for people who like Constitutionalim in their judges.
Thanks for the Education Ben!!
Seems like you can hold them accountable for their views on our Constitution. I know nothing about this so I thoroughly appreciate what you do Ben. Glad I found you or you found me.
Jesus is King. Put your trust in Him, establish a personal relationship with Him, forsake your sins and seek His forgiveness. For His yoke is light and He provides peace even in the worst situations. This life will never satisfy you, material items cannot keep you happy, but Gods love will give you meaning.
God bless you and be safe...
LOL Ben's Jewish
@@ChrisM-dx8up Exactly, Jesus is for him too.
Chris M your statement proves you have not a clue about what you say
😂😂😂 sad to break it to youngin but Jesus/Christianity is a myth
You do realize that both Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Ben Shapiro, were/are Jewish?
Ben, ever considered running for office?
Scalia's dying wish would have been that the Supreme Court just interpret the law according to a strict reading of the USA constitution.
America has a great constitution that should be followed.
... not to mention she also fell asleep during sessions
😂😂😂 always
Don't forget everyone, NOW, "TALKING SPREADS COVID." You all, better shut your mouths and only voice your opinions online where you will also be CENSORED.
good take
At first glance I thought RBG was holding a lightsaber
Thank God the Constitution was written correctly
The Dims are always in a panic. Hope they have an election night just like the 2016 election night.
I would be happy if the loved and held the values of the country their in. I don't understand them at all anymore.
@@rabidpepeii4194 I would love it if you could form a sentence. But it seems you are not capable. I have a feeling you are voting for Biden though.
@@ph8632 Noooo, no Biden. I can't find my glasses, so forgive my mistakes.
@@rabidpepeii4194 Fair enough
Since when Democrats aren’t making a big deal of anything these days? And I wonder who else is Trump considering for the SOTUS position other than the ones on his list?
I don't like a lot of what the Democrats are saying these days, but they're not wrong on this one buddy. The hypocrisy is undeniable and it's embarrassing. Republicans would _lose their shit_ if the Dems completely blocked a conservative judge for a year out of "principle" and then fully abandoned said "principle" once it stopped benefiting them. Hypocrisy is hypocrisy.
@@a.a9021 If the Democrats where in Trumps position and had control of the Senate, The Democrats would move fast to fill that seat. As for hypocrisy? That's politics, unfortunately. The Dems are the Kings and Queens of hypocrisy. The Republicans in the Senate need to start fighting back. They spend most their time on defense.
@@a.a9021 Sorry, Harry reid and the Dems changed the rules to allow for such and now they're mad because it was used against them? Too damn bad, and you know as well as I that they would've done exactly the same given the circumstances. Also, the current circumstances aren't the same as in garlands case, as far as the rules, or precedent are concerned. The hypocrisy is fully on the commicrats side, as usual.
@@terryabeare7147 The Democrats weren't the ones who stated on principle that a justice should be chosen by the next president in an election year. That is the difference. I would be perfectly happy with a conservative justice, by the way, but the problem is that this behavior is hypocrisy, pure and simple. I don't believe in brushing that off as just "politics". Why bother arguing over principles at all if violating them is just "politics"? I'm sure you don't just brush it off as "politics" when the Dems blatantly violate one of their own principles. The right certainly does call it out, as they should. I call it out. If you are a person of principle, you should call it out _no matter who_ it's coming from. Having principles means sticking to them even when it isn't convenient for you. Without agreement on things as basic as this, all that's left is partisanship.
@@johnasbach577 "I want you to use my words against me. If there's a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said, 'Let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination,' and you could use my words against me and you'd be absolutely right."
"If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump's term, and the primary process has started, we'll wait till the next election." - Lindsey Graham, 2018
How exactly is his behavior today not the textbook definition of hypocrisy? One needs to be willing to admit when their side screws up, or when they're engaging in behavior that is contrary to their own stated beliefs. People who are unable do this lose their credibility as free thinkers.
Thumbnail looks like RBG holding a lightsaber
your new setup looks so cozy
Fill that seat
Where were you when RBG passed away?
Ben: "I was at home eating tapoah bedvash and rimon yad with doctor wife when suddenly phone ring"
"Ruth Bader Ginsburg is kil"
"No."
Except that religious Jews do not answer the phone on this holiday, which is why he is posting this a few days later... 😉
@@estherleahlev9183 I know, but maybe it's like just before the holiday... IDK.
I know as an Israeli I feast on apples in honey and pomegranates for like the entire week before Rosh Hashanah.
Great video Ben. Passionate and accurate.
Why the hell was there a Biden-Harris commercial on the Ben Shapiro Show? Nice try TH-cam🤔😂
Let me guess Trump will nominate a woman to the seat. And the person assaulted was a man like the voice of blaisey ford. How is that???? Toink! Toink! Toink!
*fill the seat as soon as possible*
The thumbnail makes it look like RBG has a white lightsaber.
Also RBG's quote, "A president's job does not stop before the end of their term." So.... what do we believe, then?
