She was an impressive woman.

2020 continues to amaze me. Next up: Cue the alien landing.

Justice Ginsburg had it all. She did not let her personal views affect her work for the USA. Amazing human being. Too many contributions to count. She kept the Judicial branch on the leading edge of legal analysis and did not shy from tough issues.

Gone from life, but ever-present in her decisions and opinions.
