Holy shit.
This election just got really interesting.
Antonin Scalia died. Anybody need a hanky? I didn’t think so.
Mitch McConnell has already said that the next president should nominate someone for the vacancy.
So did Ted Cruz.
Of course they said that. And of course, Mitch McConnell will block the nomination of whomever President Obama puts forward, even if the man or woman’s halo is clearly visible to Scott Kelly from space.
According to my husband the lawyer and Google, a 4-4 tie in the US Supreme Court means that the lower court ruling will stand.
Things are gonna get interesting.
Many thanks to my bloggin’ buddy Mark at Exile on Pain Street for letting me know the news.
