BillsFanNC Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 He added “It was a part of an effort to prevent the Dobbs draft…from becoming the decision of the court. And that’s how it was used for those six weeks by people on the outside—as part of the campaign to try to intimidate the court.” Alito’s statement contradicts those in the media like NPR’s Nina Totenberg who insisted that “the only [theory] that makes sense” is that a conservative leaked the opinion. At the time, I criticized Totenberg’s claim as entirely unsupported and illogical 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 What makes the most sense is that it was Roberts or Alito... ...In order to get security in place. The decision was coming out anyway, they'd have no time to get the fences up and secure the lives of the justices if the conservatives didn't leak it. I have suspected Robert's since day one. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Supreme Court has their own federal police force which answers to the Court only. Your suspicion is based on a faulty premise.

The big brain logic that leads to thinking like "hmm we need to bolster security, but our press rep who never takes questions and produces about 20 releases a year would face humongous pressure to answer for it! What should we do???" is fairly common in the federal government but unlikely in the one room where the mean IQ is probably somewhere around 135. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conservatives leaked it for security purposes. If the decision was the other way, the liberals would have leaked it. Sometimes it's the simplest answer. The justices were at each about this.
