Sure, blame the new girl.

The "new girl" is not on the court.

They would not have access to anything yet.

It was definitely a leftist.

This was a political move to fire up the democrat base going into the midterms.

They do all the typing and filing?

Yes. These are the highest level decisions of the court. Highly important and secret. The justices write/type the opinions themselves.

The American Left is filling its ranks of radical leftists by importing them from South Asia.

I bet its a fake or at least an early draft that may not be the one selected for the final. I don’t think its reasoned very well. So, I suspect that some of the clerk’s who help write the opinions have produced this as an option. And it may not be the one finally selected.

Shame on you for assuming her gender.

Rather, the leak may have come from someone with access to the Supreme Court's draft opinions

Or access to their computers!

Could be, but writing a 98 page document is quite a bit of work to put in for a hoax, and from what I read of it, it does not at all sound like the product of a leftie. It’s my experience that most lefties do not understand the right’s worldview well enough to successfully impersonate one in a document that is this specific. They always create a caricature instead.

My money is on Breyer himself.

A career ending move: his career is over, he is retiring.

Disbarment and no legal field employment: his pension is guaranteed for life.

He goes out in a liberal blaze of glory. He will be mentioned in all future legal history books. He will command enormous speaking fees on the lecture circuit.

Is it ironic that the spying on Trump is becoming a matter of legal record and then this happens? Is there really a difference between the the Deep State press, Deep State “academia”, Deep State Legislative, Judicial, Executive?

Likely whoever leaked it did so because they really believe there is a “right” to an abortion, and this was some kind of bombshell!

“Any chance there wasn’t a leak and it’s just someone making BS up, saying there was, to fire up the left?”

I thought about that, and I haven’t completely ruled it out. But I’m not inclined to go with it at this point.

I think (i.e., it’s my opinion) that the Dems aren’t taking any chances, and they are sending a very direct and not even slightly veiled demand to the Dem majorities in Congress to pass a bill that federalizes the right to abortion, before the mid-terms.

Consider.

Frame and remove a conservative judge , here comes KJB.

If it’s a left Judge, or someone in their office, and a judge is removed hello KJB.

Why replace one left judge with another left judge ?

Simple, all the current judges support natural rights

KJB , in front of congress, God, and the citizens, stated she has no position on natural rights.

Get a judge that rejects natural rights, you have a judge that rejects the very foundation of our government.

Our country would be

fundamentally changed.

Does that sound familiar ?

Does that ring a bell ?

( hint: obamanation )

The references and text have most likely been accumulated over several years and putting together 98 pages was mainly an editorial job.

I think the recently retired justice (or one of his peeps) may have leaked it. Being off the bench makes it a low-risk adventure.
Just my opinion.
