(CNN)Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been taken to the hospital and treated for a possible infection, according to a court spokeswoman.

"Justice Ginsburg was admitted to The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland early this morning for treatment of a possible infection," spokeswoman Kathleen Arberg said Tuesday. "She was initially evaluated at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C. last night after experiencing fever and chills. She underwent an endoscopic procedure at Johns Hopkins this afternoon to clean out a bile duct stent that was placed last August. The Justice is resting comfortably and will stay in the hospital for a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment."

5. I hope the notorious RBG is doing these hospital visits on purpose

to give Trump, Leningrad Lindsey, and Moscow Mitch hopes for another Supreme, only to crush them like a bug upon her return home healthy and ready to go.

I know I get palpitations reading about her medical visits.

10. Or to give us patriots a jolt, lest we get complacent about GOTV!

It always makes me feel guilty whenever she has a health scare, and my 2nd thought is for her welfare as a fellow human being. That must suck for her (on top of everything else).

14. I feel your pain re my first thoughts about RBG.

The difference between Fuckface getting another court appointment and Biden getting one is probably one million or more saved American lives. No exaggeration.

So don’t feel overly guilty. Just get well RBG and retire gracefully when Biden wins!!!!!

7. Sending Loving Light of Healing

She will be in my thoughts before I go to sleep tonight in my quiet time and I will send love, light and healing. I want her well because she is our hero, and selfishly, i want her well because so much depends on her health...

9. It's sad that this is happening and she didn't retire during the Obama years.

Get well, RBG. We're counting on it.

[bucolic_frolic]

11. What would that have led to?

Merrick Garland 2?

[Ace Rothstein]

15. Didn't we control the Senate for the first 6 years of Obama's tenure?

She could have retired then.

[DTomlinson]

16. Yes, we did.

[RandiFan1290]

17. Agree

She should have stepped down in 2009

[warmfeet]

13. ugh!

Get well soon Ruth.

[Polybius]

18. I wouldn't be surprised if she stays on until 2025

She is very tough.

[HotTeaBag]

19. If she has to retire, will Mitch wait for the American people to choose the next

President in four months and allow that President to nominate someone for the high court?

I'm sure he will.
