Last week, Ruth Bader Ginsburg died of pancreatic cancer.

She turned 87 years old.

She was a judge in the United States Supreme Court and was considered by many to be a feminist icon.

Known for his abortion resistance

According to several Republican sources, US President Donald Trump will nominate Amy Coney Barrett as the new HD judge.

Since 2017, she has been a federal judge on the Court of Appeals for the Seventh District of the United States, which includes Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin.

She is popular in conservative circles and known for her abortion resistance.

Barrett is also a Catholic and popular with the religious right.

Amy Coney Barrett is a mother of seven and 48 years old.

Conservative overweight in court

On Saturday night, journalists asked Donald Trump if he had decided who he would nominate.

The president then replied that he had done so.

But he did not want to say more than that Amy Coney Barrett is "outstanding".

If Trump chooses to nominate a Conservative judge, it means that a total of nine judges in the US Supreme Court can gain a Conservative overweight of 6-3.
