The tributes for Justice Ginsberg are very moving, and there are hundreds of them. They speak to her dedication to empowering all people, not just those who already have power.
I had a thought the other day: what kind of tributes will the conservative justices receive, if any, when they pass on?
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg: "Dissents speak to a future age. It's not simply to say, 'My colleagues are wrong and I would do it this way.' But the greatest dissents do become court opinions and gradually over time their views become the dominant view. So that's the dissenter's hope: that they are writing not for today, but for tomorrow."
Justice Brett Kavanaugh" "I like beer."
