Consequence of the leak of the Roe overturn
Posted on 5/3/22 at 5:39 am
Posted on 5/3/22 at 5:39 am
Fox mentions the issue of the leak
Some dude on the Twitter
Some other article talked about a few past instances where an early leak happened. One was on Roe itself, though in a weekly publication where the leak took place only just before release of the actual opinion, and in an other handful of cases on less important cases.
It seems to me odd [actually par for the course] that, every fricking time, the left gets to break the rules and ignore same. The good guys can't win even when we get a win. I'm glad to see the court disinvent a "bAsIC hUmAn riGhT" after steadily attacking the basic human right to keep and bear arms. I'm also surprised to see the court remember states were supposed to have autonomy of some sort after it erased the 10th Amendment over the decades.
So yay. Now states get to let people kill babies.

Politico reported that five of the original votes to overturn Roe remain "unchanged *as of this week*," but it did not report that they have all said they will join the Alito opinion. SCOTUS Blog suggested that the leak may aim to pressure a justice to switch his or her vote.
"At least 1 is apparently uncommitted. Hence the leak?" the Supreme Court analysis website tweeted.

Disclosing a draft opinion in a Supreme Court case is an extremely rare occurrence. Jonathan Turley, Harvard law professor emeritus, appeared on Fox News ‘Hannity’ Monday evening to discuss the report, saying he could not think of a historical precedent.

"Leaking a draft opinion is a scumbag move designed to create public pressure against the court before the decision is finalized," Hemingway tweeted.
CNN's Mike Valerio claimed that Chief Justice John Roberts, a justice known for upholding precedent whom former President George W. Bush appointed, does not want to overturn Roe.
"Roberts does NOT want to completely overturn Roe v Wade, meaning he apparently would be dissenting from Alito's draft opinion, likely w the court's 3 liberals, sources tell CNN," Valerio tweeted. "Roberts is willing, however, to uphold MS law banning abortion at 15 weeks, CNN learned."

It’s sad that some clerk has become such a little bleeding heart activist that they would break the main rule of their Supreme Court clerkship to leak this draft opinion and undermine the trust between the Justices that allows them to work together.

Some might be so bold as to say it’s a threat to democracy, no?

Firing up propaganda machine and the push to "Vote Liberal or a Republican administration will reverse it... "

Just gonna sit back and watch all the Pearl clutching over this violation of institutional norms from the same crowd that applauded the same when Trump did it.

Ah, so because a group of people (none of whom post here) did something wrong, undermining the internal function of the Supreme Court is now okay and entertaining? Got it.

Consequence? Bad- I don't like the timing of this.

Why wouldn't Roberts vote in favor and pen the opinion himself so he can make it as narrow as he wants?

Hell yeah, "therapeutic abortion" is back... like governor Reagan intended.

When did Trump leak a Supreme Court opinion in an effort to conjure up a mob of angry baby killers?
To be fair, it's been a rough month for leftists. First, Florida tells them they can't groom kids anymore and now there might be restrictions on the number of black babies they can exterminate.

WHich ones were those? So I can tell you what my opinion was. Most of the "institutional norms" of the other two branches of government are not really as well established as the "norms" of the high court.
I am not entirely certain that what happened with this leak was not actually criminal.

I'm guessing we will be seeing thousands of nutjobs protesting not only at the SC but also in front of justices homes.

You forgot the part where a successful African American bought Twitter.
That really ruined leftists.

ABC is reporting that they think Chief J., JR, leaked it to put pressure on one of the five to change their vote.
He sides with the liberals since he was given a billion dollars, under the table, to support Obama care. If you give someone a billion dollar bribe, you own them for life.

Right. Gonna sit back and watch all the continued pearl clutching from the same people, over some energetic protesting, now destroying institutionalized norms so they can continue killing babies.

Because in this case there would be five other justices in the majority who would want to overturn roe …. So if Robert’s don’t agree he can only agree in prt with the majority opinion and then dissent in part

Where did I say it was okay and entertaining? What is entertaining is watching the same crowd that applauded a losing president refusing to concede his loss, making up a lie about a stolen election, encouraging his supporters to come to DC to “stop the steal”, and refusing to participate in the transfer of power in Inauguration Day get upset over this breach if norms. I don’t need to be lectured by these people on what is right or wrong, so I just laugh at them.

Did your wife’s boyfriend tell you that?
