Wait Until After the Election to Confirm RBG’s Supreme Court Replacement

 No Replacement Yet for RBG, Please.  Republicans are attempting now to rapidly push through their conservative agenda to appoint a conservative judge to the Supreme Court to replace recently deceased Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg . Her body is still lying in state. Instead of allowing and condoning the Republicans to behave in this manner, they need to be stayed, stalled and called out. Give the public time to breathe and grieve.

There is no urgency to put this movement in motion prior to the election. The election is less than 60 days away. Give the woman some respect. Not only that, but honor our democratic system and declare a moratorium on any action to appoint a replacement for RBG  until after the election.  They really are coming off rather ghoulishly, demonstrating no decency or respect for such a great woman widely admired by the American public, especially many women. 

On the other hand, the Republican leaders at the President’s behest may be doing the Democrats a favor by belittling themselves in pushing so swiftly for a confirmation. Polls have been conducted which indicate that a majority percentage of men and women alike favor the nomination and confirmation process be conducted after the presidential election has been held in November.

An All Inclusive Emmys: Sunday Night Amazing Job. Seriously!

This years’s Emmys telecast was a real class act.  Jimmy Kimmel did a great job as host. I thought they went the extra creative mile using cars to get the award trophies out to the awardees fast and with lot’s of buzz. The focus on voting and getting out the vote was a lot of fun to watch and kept momentum up throughout the broadcast. 

It was notable the number of blacks winning Emmys this year in categories across the board. Regina King and her show “The Watchmen” was a big winner, picking up awards for Outstanding  limited series and acting trophies for her and Yahya Abdul-Mateen III.  Tyler Perry had a big night as he was honored with an introduction by friend and fellow billionaire media icon Oprah as a recipient of the Governor’s award which recognizes extraordinary or cumulative accomplishments in television. You could almost hear a pin drop(figuratively speaking) when he gave an engaging and sensitive speech about his grandmother, the black experience in America and how thrilled she would have been to see him receive his Emmy. Zendaya a young black woman won for her role in “Euphoria” and became the youngest in Emmy history to win in the category of best leading actress in a drama. Other winners included Uzo Aduba of Orange is the New Black fame for her supporting actress role in Mrs. America. Maya Rudolph and  Eddie Murphy won Emmys for Outstanding Guest Actor and Actress on a comedy show— Saturday Night Live. Also, Ru Paul’s series won Emmys in two reality categories. 

Schitts Creek which addresses humorously LGBT life won a record nine(9) Emmys in the comedy genre. HBO drama series about a business tycoon and his relationship with family, Succession garnered several awards including Best actor and Best drama.
