Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg fractured three ribs after a fall at her office Wednesday evening, the court said in a news release.

Ginsburg, 85, later experienced discomfort and was admitted to George Washington University Hospital "for observation and treatment."

Tests showed the justice fractured three ribs on her left side. The justice broke two ribs in a fall in 2012. She has had two prior bouts with cancer and had a stent implanted to open a blocked artery in 2014.

The justice, who studied at Harvard Law School, was nominated to the highest court in the land by former President Bill Clinton. She was the president's first Supreme Court appointment.

Ginsburg is the court's oldest member and there has been much speculation on her retirement. She is one of the four liberal justices that sits on the bench.

Ginsburg has became a liberal icon and has appeared on late night television shows including the "The Late Show" with Stephen Colbert where she showed him her workout routine.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates.

A liberal-lean, she is 85 years but has clung to the seat vowing never to retire. She hopes yo see off Trump' S Presidency, at least his first term. Though many doubt if she can hold on for a long time. Any believe she may likely provide President Trump with an opportunity to further cement the conservative outlook of the US Supreme Court. Quick recovery

They should allow the poor woman to retire and take care of her health.

Ha, you want the Democrats to hang themselves? If that happens, Trump will become the most fortunate American President.

She just hired 4 full time law clerks, an indication that she will stay put till the last breath. But you know, one can't be too sure of anything.

Either the Democrats like it or not Trump is going to fill up to 5 vacancies there sooner or later. So the Democrats better let that old grandma enjoy her last days on earth.
