WASHINGTON – Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was admitted to a hospital Tuesday for treatment of a possible infection, marking the latest medical mishap for the four-time cancer survivor.
Ginsburg, 87, the court's oldest justice, experienced fever and chills Monday night and was treated at Sibley Memorial Hospital in the nation's capital. On Tuesday, she underwent an endoscopic procedure at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore to clean out a bile duct stent that was inserted last August, the court announced.
The announcement said Ginsburg would remain at Johns Hopkins for a few days for intravenous antibiotic treatment but was"resting comfortably." Ginsburg's health has been the subject of conversation among court-watchers for years, and more so as President Donald Trump's first term draws to a close. If she was forced to leave the court during his administration, the Republican-controlled Senate could try to replace her quickly and solidify conservative control, perhaps for decades to come.
Get well soon RBG🙏🏽
No worries 😉 she’ll be good to go by next week. She’s got to make until next year, God willing 🙏

Sad when a country that declares itself to be the greatest in the history of mankind judges it’s brightest/best by whether or not they wear PPE, what drugs they recommend & what TV networks they watch & decides whether or not to wish an ill person well based on politics.
GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🙏 Prayers up from the conservative corner
Absolutely fantastic!!!! 😂😂😂 A third Trump justice on the court would even be better than a Trump victory in November.

Not today Satan! She needs to recover with the quickness!

Finally
summon the gods of all antibiotics....
