CNN’s Toobin: SCOTUS Leak a ‘Shattering Experience,’ ‘Don’t Know How or if the Institution Is Going to Recover’
Breitbart ^ | 05/03/2022 | Jeff poor

Posted on 05/03/2022 8:28:20 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Immediately following a Politico report that the U.S. Supreme Court was poised to overturn a decades-old landmark abortion ruling, Roe v. Wade, CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin warned how the draft came to light, which was through a leak, would have a lasting impact on the institution.

Toobin told CNN host Anderson Cooper the leak was a “shattering experience,” and he was not sure “how or if the institution” will recover.

Maybe our founders never intended for SCOTUS to be the final arbiters of the most important issues facing our society?

Roe vs Wade must go down in history as infamous as Dread Scott.

I hope every abortionist is one day tracked down, even when they are old and think they have gotten away with it, the same way the world hunted Nazi concentration camp guards.

Oh goody. Another investigation is opened. Maybe in a decade or so they’ll figure things out and make the criminal who did it.

Shattering the Court was the entire object of this exercise.

Robert’s, who is famous for saying the justices aren’t political, just found out that the justices are political.

Well, you notice that a draft decision of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen hasn't been leaked.

The left always wants to destroy something and then build it back as they see fit. Defund the police and re-imagine law enforcement, destroy the military and rebuild it to be more inclusive, kill the immigration system and then have comprehensive immigration reform. This is no different. Destroy the Supreme Court and repack it with their socialist attorney friends. The left's playbook is quite apparent.

Hey Roberts... What are the odds among the Justices that it was released by a staff member of one of those “non-political O-Hole Justices”? Dumbass.

How can some one who exposed himself publicly be back at his job?

It used to be when you shamed yourself and your family you went off into the woods to live in obscurity, to avoid the rest of us having to be embarrassed to deal with you.

This bunch will not overturn precedent. Even if they thought to for a moment they will definitely back down. This is exactly the group who are not willing to be “controversial”. Barrett wants some left wing female praise so she is definitely swayable. Brett wants everyone to like him and believe that he didn’t hurt that woman so he’s swayable and Roberts doesn’t need to be swayed. The already own his vote. The institution is just as broken as the others.

Bingo!! I would never put nine lawyers in charge of deciding what's for dinner, let alone giving them the kind of power the SCOTUS has assumed as the judiciary has become increasingly 'activist'.

Further, it isn't just nine lawyers. It's nine lawyers from essentially two law schools - and thus nine lawyers representing a narrow point of view pushed by the faculty/administration of two highly overrated law schools.

Only Amy Coney Barrett didn't go to either Harvard or Yale law schools. That is the true lack of diversity - irrespective of the skin color of any of them.
