Ruth Bader Ginsburg Admits She Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State Of The Union

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said Thursday night that she wasn’t “100 percent sober” when she nodded off “as I often do” during President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address in January.

“The audience for the most part is awake, because they’re bobbing up and down, and we sit there, stone-faced, sober judges. But we’re not, at least I wasn’t, 100 percent sober,” Ginsburg said while speaking at George Washington University, according to The Blaze.

Scalia noted, “I mean she’s so light you would think she would never come down. I would not do that.”
