Suspect that Roberts is delaying the release of the abortion decision as long as possible. He is still hoping that somehow he can change one vote.
yep, or reduce the impact.
Change one vote to overturn
Or against?
He is still hoping that somehow he can change one vote.

If he does this will establish the precedent that the Court’s rulings are subject to leaks, manipulation and political intimidation. I other words, it loses all credibility.
I would have thought that the votes were weeks ago...and that the only remaining issue would be writing the opinion.
But who knows.
I would have thought the Court would issue the rulings when they were done. This “Glen Beck” process of making folks “wait for the big one” seems a little too dramatic.
Or the leaked decision is not the real one, simply a means to gin up Dim anger.
I think they want to be nowhere near DC when it’s released.
Or he might be waiting for the conservative Justices to make plans and go out of town for awhile.
Also, Justice Comey-Barret has young children in school and school needs to be done for the summer.
“Suspect that Roberts is delaying the release of the abortion decision as long as possible. He is still hoping that somehow he can change one vote.”
Sounds very plausible to me, since Roberts, in my opinion, has been bought and paid for.
