The Washington Compost couldn't be trying to pin the leak on the right, could they?

It’s worth underscoring how stunning the leaks in this @washingtonpost story are — even after the events of the past week: Three *different* sources all speaking to the current state of internal #SCOTUS deliberations in a pending case? And all identifying as “conservatives”? Wow. https://t.co/G9YlBNMtbf— Steve Vladeck (@steve_vladeck) May 8, 2022

“According to three conservatives close to the court” — who are, apparently, privy to the current state of internal deliberations:https://t.co/2JaHJNDPvS

In other words, here’s *another* Dobbs-related leak from #SCOTUS — and this time, it’s clear which side it’s coming from… pic.twitter.com/x4iMLYDmO6— Steve Vladeck (@steve_vladeck) May 8, 2022

This seems to be the *fourth* different leak re: Dobbs — the first to WSJ’s editorial board; the second to Politico re: the draft; and the third to CNN re: the Chief Justice’s vote.

Folks are going to apportion blame according to their priors, but something is rotten in Denmark.

There’s been a lot of outrage about the Politico leak from prominent conservatives all of whom assume that it came from someone sympathetic to the more liberal Justices’ position here. I suspect we won’t see the same for this leak — even though it has a far more explicit source.

Reminds me of Rush’s (😢) montages displaying the obviously scripted projection, of the left.

So obvious...yet, half of the country falls for their carp, sadly.

The old legal saying: Qui Bono?

Who benefits?

Not conservatives for the Dobbs leak.

The Dems ginned up their base—they benefit.

They are failing on everything, they needed to get the base motivated.

Classic projection by the Left.

And notice, no news on the Ukraine war last week

That’s because the Russians are winning the Donbass.

Let’s keep everyone distracted.

Maybe they claim to be conservative, but that just doesn’t make sense. No sense at all. Are they claiming the conservative judges are leaking to them? I find this hard to believe.
