It may not have been illegal, but would you keep an employee that pulled a stunt like that?
The leaker is most likely Amit Jain. He’s an immigrant from India and a clerk for Justice Sotomayor. His resume reads like a “how to” manual for turning an immigrant into a flaming left-wing partisan. At law school and immediately after graduating, he was involved in projects that are all near and dear to the shriveled hearts of the lunatic left-wing fringe.
That only narrows it down a little bit, since all of the clerks for Sotomayor, Kagan and Breyer have resumes like that.
Specifically for Jain, the original leak of the Dobbs decision went to Politico. Jain was interviewed by a particular reporter at Politico a few months earlier. Then the very same reporter started publishing leaked info, that was clearly coming from somebody who works for the Supreme Court.
I don’t trust coincidences. I’m not going to say “I don’t believe in coincidences.” They do happen. But I don’t trust them when they’re this convenient, and this closely dovetailed.
I expect that this is what will happen to the leaker, if he wasn’t the one.
My understanding is that the Supreme Court marshal is leading the investigation because there’s no evidence a crime has been committed. Leaking a draft opinion may be a violation of court protocols, but it isn’t a crime unless someone broke into an office or hacked a computer to get access to it.
Some bridge is missing its troll.
Soon to be anointed to the Chomo Biden cabinet among the other degenerates.
Several clerks sought legal counsel when in June court investigators insisted justices' law clerks sit for interviews and surrender their cell phones.
>> was any law actually broken?
Is that a general concern to you? Or just having an antagonist itch to scratch?

I guess thats just you being a useless dick with nothing to add to the conversation, feel better now?
Yes its a concern to me, what is the point of spending hundreds of hours investigating something that wasn’t a crime, and nobody will be fired for? How do you fire government employees for doing something that was not a crime in the first place? - ‘court norms’ are not legally enforceable.
