  • Supreme Court Barricaded After Bombshell Abortion Leak, Leftists Start to Call for Rash Action

    05/03/2022 7:02:03 AM PDT · by Tench_Coxe · 73 replies
    The news is coming hard and fast after a bombshell leak out of the Supreme Court revealed a draft decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. RedState reported on the initial details, noting that it is misleading to treat the draft as the final result.Still, this is completely unprecedented, and it does appear that five justices were prepared at the time of the draft to overturn the landmark abortion precedents of Roe and Casey. What happens next is where things get interesting, though.

    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.

  • Chief Justice Roberts says leaked abortion opinion is authentic but not final, opens investigation

    Washington Post via MSN ^ | May 3rd | Robert Barnes
    Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. said Tuesday that the leaked draft opinion proposing to overturn Roe v. Wade is authentic but not final, and that he is opening an investigation into how it became public. “To the extent this betrayal of the confidences of the Court was intended to undermine the integrity of our operations, it will not succeed,” Roberts said. “The work of the Court will not be affected in any way.” While Roberts’s statement said the draft provided to Politico was genuine, “it does not represent a decision by the Court or the final position of any...

    A group of 30 left-wing legislators on Tuesday withdrew a letter sent a day earlier calling on President Biden to negotiate directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin to end his war on Ukraine — after several signatories running for re-election objected to its release nearly four months after it was written.The Congressional Progress Caucus hereby withdraws its recent letter to the White House regarding Ukraine,” the group’s chairwoman Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) wrote in a statement Tuesday. “The letter was drafted several months ago, but unfortunately was released by staff without vetting.” Though she blamed unnamed employees for the letter’s...

    The leak is the thing. It’s egregious, and clearly meant to give liberal groups almost two months before the term ends at the end of June to pressure the Court much like there was a pressure campaign against Chief Justice Roberts on Obamacare. I’ve never seen an actual draft opinion leak from the U.S. Supreme Court. Not even what the vote will be — remember everyone waiting for the 2012 Obamacare decision and then speed reading it? Obamacare was small potatoes compared to ABORTION. We’ve covered the Mississippi case that many speculated would result in Roe v. Wade being overturned....

    Judicial Watch announced today it received 115 pages in this first production of records in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) which show the Biden administration, following the Dobbs decision which overturned Roe v. Wade, considered declaring a “public health emergency” and using federal lands to provide abortion services. The records also show that millions of taxpayer dollars were used to establish an office to protect against “grave health threats” allegedly caused by climate change, and for facilitating then-Assistant Secretary Rachel Levine’s extreme focus on LGBT and “gender-affirming” health...
  • No Evidence! Joe Scarborough Accuses Justice Alito of Leaking Dobbs Draft

    Evidence? Joe Scarborough don't need no stinkin' evidence. On today's Morning Joe, the Biden phone buddy and informal adviser felt entitled to make a very grave--and entirely evidence-free--accusation against Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito. Thus it was that in a segment devoted to a New York Times story skewering Alito for permitting the flying at his home of an upside-down American flag, Scarborough accused Alito of having leaked the draft of the Dobbs opinion [which Alito wrote], overturning Roe v. Wade. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

    Justice Samuel Alito has a “pretty good idea” who leaked the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health organization draft, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday. Alito revealed in an interview with the WSJ that he believes he knows who is responsible for the Dobbs decision leak that sparked months of protests outside conservative justices’ homes and an attempt to assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh, though he said that is “different from the level of proof that is needed to name somebody.” The motive, he said, was to prevent the draft from becoming the decision: “And that’s how it was used for those...

    Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said that he has a “pretty good” idea who was behind the leak of the court’s decision on overturning Roe v. Wade — and that the leak made the justices targets for possible assassination. Alito, who authored the landmark Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision that ruled there is no constitutional right to abortion, made the comments in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. “I personally have a pretty good idea who is responsible, but that’s different from the level of proof that is needed to name somebody,” Alito said: “It was a...

    Hmmmm. Justice Samuel Alito doesn’t provide the identity of the central figure in the biggest whodunit in Supreme Court history, but he does supply the motive. Alito tells Wall Street Journal reporter/columnist James Taranto about the immediate impact of the leak of the Dobbs opinion on the conservative justices, revealing that Brett Kavanaugh was not alone in facing threats on his life. The leak of the opinion put all six of that wing of the court at risk, Alito claims, and still does to this day.Given all that, Alito says, you have to be out of your mind to think...

    After the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade leaked on May 3rd, news reports blamed abortion-related violence over the summer on pro-life supporters. “[W]e have seen a steady rise in violence and harassment against providers from anti-abortion extremists who continue to be emboldened by the Supreme Court’s decision,” claimed Melissa Fowler, Chief Program Officer of the National Abortion Federation (NAF). "People want me dead’: abortion providers fear violence after Roe overturned,” a headline in The Guardian read. Other news outlets, such as NBC News, also focused on the increased threat of violence against abortion providers. But national news...

    It used to be that when presidents went abroad, they refrained from trashing the opposition at home or the institutions of the United States Government.The saying that “politics stops at the water’s edge” no longer holds true — if it ever really did. But it’s always been considered bad form to criticize other branches of government overseas. And it’s embarrassing to air our internal political disagreements in public in a foreign country. Biden violated both of those unwritten rules to score a few cheap political points with his rabid base back home while making America look like a banana republic.Fox...

    For the Wednesday night edition of Amanpour and Company on PBS and CNN International, host Christiane Amanpour thought it was appropriate to ask Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson to condemn the Supreme Court for its Dobbs ruling that struck down Roe v. Wade. Following some discussion on Sweden’s imminent acceptance into NATO, Amanpour switched gears, “Can I just quickly switch a little bit to -- presumably you’ve all been having discussions with your other counterparts, including President Biden. I just wanted to ask you, you know, Sweden has, for a long time, had a certain feminist foreign policy. You know...

    Arguing that it did, the Casey Court went much further still, making the claim that “liberty” included abortion and much else besides. It became one of the most infamous passages in the entire history of SCOTUS jurisprudence: “At the heart of liberty is the right to define one’s own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life.” Thus, Casey was about so much more than abortion. It offered an understanding of liberty that made the individual the arbiter of everything, including the meaning of the universe. It was the most radical principle of...

Jordan told Fox News the decision was not only a “win for life,” the Constitution, and common sense but also a “victory over the intimidation tactics of the left.” “[T]he left … will always try and intimidate you,” Jordan declared. “But this decision this week was a win for life, was a win for the Constitution, a win for common sense.

In particular, the FDA has approved the use of the medication Mifepristone. States may not ban Mifepristone based on disagreement with the FDA’s expert judgment about its safety and efficacy. “Furthermore, federal agencies may continue to provide reproductive health services to the extent authorized by federal law. And federal employees who carry out their duties by providing such services must be allowed to do so free from the threat of liability. It...
