Trump sets time for Supreme Court announcement

President Trump will announce his nominee to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg at 5 p.m. EDT on Saturday.

Trump had already announced that he wanted the funeral proceedings for Ginsburg to conclude in Washington, D.C., before he made his announcement.

Ginsburg will lie in repose at the Supreme Court building on Wednesday and lie in state in the U.S. Capitol on Friday to allow for public viewings. She will be buried in a private ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

Trump has announced that his nominee will be a woman.
