I hate Politico but the government cannot go after the media. First Amendment protects them. They broke no laws publishing it.

Im not sure its exactly illegal to leak a Supreme Court draft
Then again the Supreme Court can make it illegal
So
Who knows

They broke no law because the court previously held under 1970s case law there is no reason for a publication ban on leaked material.
But if we are revisiting 50+ year old cases here that one may come up soon too.

Get out of here with laws and logic. Let’s extradite Julian Assange and sentence him to death!

Nothing really can be done criminally about leaking the document, however when he or she lies or there is evidence they tried to cover their tracks then deep shite for that person.

These opinions that are always shared through the court have strict rules about how they are distributed.
Someone deep in the Supreme Court leaked this.
This wasn't an accident.

That’s why I asked the question. I didn’t know if their act was illegal

Unless your name is Julian Assange.

The supreme court can make it illegal
They can retroactively make it illegal
They can basically do whatever they want

LOL. Govt has shite all over the first amendment, repeatedly.

The Pentagon Papers case from the Nixon era held that the NYT couldn’t be held liable for publishing the papers even though Daniel Ellsberg was not authorized to distribute them.
They also held that the government couldn’t put prior restraint on the NYT to prevent them from publishing them.

That’s an emotional decision and it has no place in civilized discussions when it comes to government

If the SC leak was something that Dims could use against the R’s there would already be an investigation scheduled.

I didn’t say they should. The person I replied to said they can’t. The federal govt can do whatever it wants, if this isn’t clear to someone after the last 100+ years then it won’t ever be until it is their rights that are directly violated.
