Meet Elizabeth Deutsch. She's currently a law clerk for Justice Breyer. And, in my humble opinion, she's the most likely person to have leaked the draft Supreme Court opinion in Dobbs, purporting to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Chris Wray's guys are all over it, I'm sure. This means they will give the clerk(s) or the Justices (I'm looking at YOU Sotomayor/Breyer) the Hillary Treatment:

No notes taken during the interview (chat really),
no 302s archived, or if archived, will be highly edited/sanitized,
their lawyers will be present,
any evidence collected will be destroyed courtesy of the F_I.

How many other clerks are married to a reporter who worked with the guy that broke the story? That is more than just a coincidence, IMHO.

Apparently they didn't take courses in criminal justice.

Maybe it was one of the wonderful diversity hires that Kavanaugh bragged about.

Pardon me if I’ll wait for some actual evidence before assembling a firing squad.

If true, she needs to change those pronouns to Was/Were.

Isn’t a “masters” in gender rather a privileged even misogynistic term these days?

Good summary of “is it a crime” question:

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/is-it-illegal-leak-us-supreme-court-opinion-2022-05-03/

GOOD FIND and well worth reading. The leaker may easily be fired, debarred, referred for criminal prosecution for lying during the investigation and a number of fun items.

There are a lot of SCOTUS law clerks and many of them are liberal Democrats. She might be the leaker, but there are a lot of candidates. I would say it is almost certainly a clerk versus staff.

The real problem is if the leaker is exposed and punished, she or he will become a Hero of the Left and despite being fired from the Court will probably get a $300K+ job at a Biglaw firm.

“actual evidence before assembling a firing squad.”

I guess you better wait before giving her that Professor of Gender Studies gig at Georgetown as well.

;-)

I think this is more about getting the “base” fired up for the mid terms.

By all accounts, the Dems are going to get their ass handed to them, and then some. They have to do something.

The “leaker” was probably promised some mid 6 figure job somewhere if he/she was outted.

She’s a moonbat, for sure. But that doesn’t mean she did this.

LOL look at ALL the comments. The people who are shocked the original tweeter called out so much.

Social media is really a sewer. This is just more evidence of that.

Wow, I think he nailed her. Entire career based on abortion, married a journalist who shared a by-line with the journalist who broke this. Her husband and that guy are still close. And she clerks for Breyer who is about to leave.

She’s the one.

Brilliant research. I think posting this shows poor judgment. Yes, he’s got the right to do it- but should he?

Maybe maybe not, but I’m not going to jump on the condemnation band wagon until we know for sure. That’s what the left did to Kyle and Richard Jewell, others. If she is tagged as it, then she still gets her day in court. Until then, I’m agnostic.

The decision would have been announced in June at the latest, there was no reason to leak it now to effect the midterms.
This is intimidation to water down the decision.
