JUST IN - U.S. Supreme Court has voted to strike down Roe vs. Wade, an initial draft majority opinion by Justice Alito shows.
Politico so most likly phony rat stunt.
If Deep State does this, they’re trying to scare Dem voters into forgetting about every other issue.
Hannity just announced it on Fox.
From the article:
“No draft decision in the modern history of the court has been disclosed publicly while a case was still pending.”
Probably an attempt to intimidate someone voting to end Roe....
Maybe this will give the Neocons and their Bidenista pals something to do other than start WW3 over Ukraine.
Trump S.C. picks come through MAJOR!!!!
Thank you President Trump!!!!!!
I read Alito’s opinion on Timcast just now. Looks legit.
I am not buying it. They don’t release draft opinions.

Do you trust Kagan to not give it to her pals?
How did this leak?
A “draft” opinion does not mean it is the one adopted by a majority of the Justices.
I’m not very optimistic about this now - it could create a media firestorm that would put outside pressure on the Court if the opinion has not already been adopted.
Sounds like the doing of a clerk on one of the Leftist justices’ staff.
A leaked SCOTUS doc is unprecedented. I would be very suspect of something I’ve only seen on Zero Hedge.
Bump!
Over turning Roe v Wade would return the matter to the States... as it was before 1973.
I think you’re exactly right in your assessment. Blackmail pure and simple....
It’s an inevitability, with the pro-life side winning almost every battle they have fought.
“… “We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Justice Samuel Alito writes in the document, labeled as the “Opinion of the Court.” “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
From Politico…
Deliberations on controversial cases have in the past been fluid. Justices can and sometimes do change their votes as draft opinions circulate and major decisions can be subject to multiple drafts and vote-trading, sometimes until just days before a decision is unveiled. The court’s holding will not be final until it is published, likely in the next two months…”
From Hannity
Well, I know you don’t want an answer, but no…that would not make abortion illegal. Most states have already dealt with the issue. An overturn would simply send the question back to the states.
He got it from Politico.
If it is legitimate, sounds like the doing of a liberal staff member of one of the liberal justices. Whoever did this certainly did not do it with the intention of supporting the decision.
If the opinion has not already been adopted, this could be a last ditch effort to stop it from happening.
Scare tactics to motivate people to vote Rat in the midterms?
