She is in denial.
no, it went totally way over my head
I have no idea nor a good guess as to which side leaked it, but it doesn’t matter. If there were 5 votes to overturn it the leak will peel off a couple of them and the decision will go the other way.
$10 says it was Justice Roberts
That's hard to believe. She has always had that butcher-block face.
The gulliber-progressives believe it.
And that’s all Totenberg wants.
According to my constitutional law professor at George Washington University in 1976, Nina carried on a relationship with Justice Potter Stewart (she was married to former Colorado senator Floyd Haskell); this is apparently how she became a leading Supreme Court correspondent.
On this story, Nina is full of BS. No law clerk with a full legal career ahead of him or her is going to give up that career and the high paying gig awaiting when the clerkship ends in early July. This is because when the leaker is outed, he or she will get disbarred.
I heard a theory (I think on the Sebastian Gorka radio show) that the leaker is a female law clerk to Justice Breyer, who was identified in the report as Elizabeth B. Deutsch. As Breyer is leaving the court at the end of this term, he really has nothing to lose by leaking the draft decision. He probably never has to have another face to face conference with the other eight sitting justices, The husband of the female law clerk is a reporter and apparently has collaborated with one of the Politico reporters in the past.
My guess is that investigators have a short list of suspects, and are simply looking for evidence that will stand up at trial, so as not to ruin a potentially innocent person’s life. I would want it no other way.
