The U.S. Supreme Court is apparently planning to vote to END Roe v Wade in a DRAFT OPINION by Justice Samuel Alito — leaked to Politico this evening.
The draft opinion was leaked to the press – something that is almost unprecedented.
Developing………
The Daily Mail reported:
The Supreme Court is planning to vote to strike down the decision of Roe v. Wade, long considered a vanguard of guaranteeing a right to an abortion in the United States.
The opinion draft – originally obtained by Politico – was written by Justice Samuel Alito, one of the six justices appointed by Republican presidents on the nine-member court, repudiating both Roe and the 1992 Planned Parenthood vs. Casey decision.
‘Roe was egregiously wrong from the start,’ Alito writes. ‘We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,’ he continues in the document, titled ‘Opinion of the Court.’
‘It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.’
Politico noted that this is the first such case in modern history of a Supreme Court draft decision being leaked to the public while the case was still pending.
It is unclear which justice would support such a move, which would typically be released at term's end -- by June.
But the fact that the planned decision was LEAKED -- which is considered a criminal act -- is almost as big a story as the decision, and it has shocked Court experts.
Influential site SCOTUSblog expressed the sentiment bluntly:
And it didn't take long for fingers to point at the most far-left justice on the Court: Sonia Sotomayor.

A person called Amit Jain clerks for Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
As a Yale student, Jain blasted Yale for supporting Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination.
Jain was quoted in a 2017 Politico piece by Josh Gerstein.
Today, Gerstein published the draft SCOTUS opinion on Roe.

Because republicans didn't fight it and some republicans sided with democrats.
Same old, same old.....
.
Should have happened in the first place.
Why couldn’t this be a blackbag hack job by the BiteMe admin on the court’s server or Alito’s PC? Yes, they are that sleazy?
It would be a shame if something happened to her before then. I remember that from some italian movie....
Sounds like a developing target-rich environment.
Wow
You can never go wrong betting that democrats are up to some skullduggery.
IMHO no matter who actually leaked the information the act itself was probably planned and put into play by democrats at a higher level as justification or a catalyst for some other action.
Perhaps as an excuse to seat Breyer's replacement before he retires thereby effectively starting to pack the court.
Or to bring the abortion fight to the forefront to pump up discouraged democrats for the mid-term elections.
Or for some other democrat scheme not immediately apparent.
Whatever the true motivation you can bet it's part of a democrat plan to gain something they cannot achieve through traditional legal channels or honest elections.

I am rethinking my conclusion. initially thought the “wise latina.” But the demon, John Roberts, is my new culprit.
This supposedly leaked DRAFT, supposedly favoring addressing Row v Wade in some manner, could all be a fire-up-the-base ploy. A draft isn’t final and, in any event, justices can change their mind even if the draft is legitimate.
I’d love to be wrong and see horrible, “settled” law become unsettled and void.
.
And it can be True - and a Fire up the base ploy.
I think the plan was to leave Town (recess) and release the Ruling.
Now they’re there, and the weaklings will twist in the wind.
*wide* Latina.
And don’t forget fundraising. They will raise a boatload of money off this.
Since it leaked to Politico its probably some libtard hoping to flip a swing vote.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Uke war, runaway inflation, $4 gasoline, lap top from hell, CRT, disney, gender dysforia, south border, durham probe ……. All wiped off the news cycle on eve of important primaries.
Mobilize the dem’s get out the vote
Excellent point!
ICKY, BICKY, SOTOMAYOR
ICKY, BICKY, BOO
ICKY, BICKY, SOTOMAYOR
OUT GOES YOU!
Oh yeah. It’s also a federal felony
and BLM riots to start this summer too, mark it.
anyway, I doubt this leak is true. It will not end abortion but most likely have it a state issue. right?
leaked by a leftist clerk apparently, or at least that’s the opinion of the linked article. I believe it.
These loonie Marxists CAN NOT BE TRUSTED WITH A CLEARANCE.
