"Worse Than Dobbs:" Leftwing of Court Illegally Leaks to Damage Majority Again

Is Roberts once again going to call for a deliberately-toothless investigation with no power to compel people to disclose their cell-phone records? With no one swearing, under oath, they're not the leaker?

That's what I imagine he'll do.


The latest leaks about the Supreme Court's internal deliberations on three major cases involving former President Donald Trump could be coming from a high level member of the minority, former clerks and long time court observers told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Drawing on "details from the justices' private memos, documentation of the proceedings and interviews with court insiders, both conservative and liberal," a Sunday report published by The New York Times offered a window into the the justices' decision making process on three major cases, including Trump v. United States, where the Supreme Court held former presidents are immune from prosecution for official acts taken in office. The report mainly targets Chief Justice John Roberts, highlighting his efforts to secure a consensus on controversial cases.

"This is another disturbing leak from the Court, and Congress should look into it because clearly a member of the minority is conspiring with the Left to destroy the Court," JCN President Carrie Severino told the DCNF.


...

South Texas College of Law Houston professor Josh Blackman argued in Reason that the New York Times' report was "far worse than the Dobbs leak" in 2022, when Alito's draft decision overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked to Politico. He noted the latest leaks are "systematic and thorough," requiring insights from "so many different people."

"Moreover, all of this comes after the Dobbs leak when Chief Justice Roberts (apparently) put strict limitations on access to Court information," he wrote. "What did all of those measures accomplish? Apparently not much."

Blackman wrote that he believes Justice Elena Kagan's absence from the reporting suggests she or her surrogates are behind the leaks.


"If Kagan is willing to publicly undermine her colleagues in a speech at the Ninth Circuit, why would she do any less off-the-record?" he wrote. "Moreover, this entire story is consistent with Kagan's MO, and describing the Court as bending over backwards for Trump."

...

Ilya Shaprio, director of constitutional studies at the Manhattan Institute, told the DCNF the leaks are "a further reflection of the left's discontent at having lost control of the Court."

"This is all part of a campaign to smear and pressure justices, and ultimately to delegitimize one of the few remaining institutions that hews to the rule of law and can resist progressive fascism," Shaprio said.



Carrie Severino
@JCNSeverino

Terrible leaks of confidential Court documents like this are deliberately aimed at intimidating and pressuring the originalist justices into changing their opinions on key cases in the future.

And if they don't -- their reputations will be dragged through the mud and they will subjected to targeted harassment and even potential violence.

We are at this unprecedented and dangerous moment because the Left is waging a full-blown political campaign to delegitimize and destroy the Supreme Court so they can exert total control over it.

This is just outright revenge.

And Kagan probably did it. And Barrett is still going to go to lunch with her.

Because Barrett doesn't know what time it is, but Kagan does.

30 People don't seem to understand the most basic tenet of leftism.

There is no right and wrong, there are no laws, and anything that needs to be done must be done, up to and including mass murder.

The left will incite mobs to surround a courthouse, threatening to kill the judge and jurors if they don't return a verdict that the mob wants. That is their idea of justice.

There are millions of leftists who are upset that Trump is still alive today, and are hoping that the next time will work. That is their idea of electoral victory.

The only thing that matters to the left is winning at any cost, and eliminating anyone who disagrees with them.

33 One thing that makes this even more malicious in my mind is, the way they decide these case, IIRC, they sit around the table, discuss the case and take a vote.

So this is a direct attack on those confidential--open and frank--discussions.

This is 3rd round of sour grapes; lost at the discussion, lost the opinion and now is still griping about losing.

- Kagan conspiring and using politics. Probably source of leakage
- Liberals using politics and pressure instead of reasoning
- Barret being weak
- Roberts being played and feckless
- Trump appointees likely to rule against him in the crunch to prove their independence
...

Chief Justice has the power not to assign Kagan to write any opinions if he is in the majority. Ditto for any other conservative majority.

On the other hand, Sotomayor's opinions might improve with Kagan writing them.

Scotus did that to Justice Douglas in the twilight of his career in part to force him to retire and also to prevent him from making a shambles of the opinion.

105 I'm not sure what Roberts could do here. The ability to investigate this might be limited. The justices themselves have a lot of autonomy and aren't really subject to anyone due to separation of powers. Because these leaks likely aren't criminal, it's be hard to get at the clerks too. In the aftermath of the Dobbs leak, the Texas legislature criminalized leaks by court staff (but not the judges themselves) in a way designed to make any leaks in the state system investigable by law enforcement and prosecutable to avoid these kinds of leaks. I assume that's a non-starter at the federal level or it would have already been done, and beside the point because it's probably a justice who is the leaker. Destroying the uniparty comity on the court is probably for the best anyway.

Someone is not living in the real world.
All of DC and MSM have identified justices by who appointed them since I can remember. And all of the threats and trash talk by not just the MSM, but members of Congress and Senate, regarding Trump appointed justices has been a spectacle. Led to justices being harassed at home, and even an assassination attempt.

You may not accept their framing, Roberts, but they do - and they are acting on it, bigtime.

The Left is conducting an Inquisition, as best it can at this time. If the Leftists ever get the total judicial and political power they lust for, the subsequent American Inquisition will not be conducted with comfy chairs and soft pillows.

The Dem one is up 31% vs the Rep one is up 15% or so

The stock market overall is up around 10-12% in that time. So the Reps are doing slightly better then the market while the Dems are CRUSHING it with returns of almost 3X what you would expect if they weren't engaged in insider trading.

265 254 Ideally no SC judges would have been lawyers or judges. The intent with the Constitution was to have rules simple and clear enough for any educated person to understand.

If the founders wanted secular bishops with complete power to overturn the written text they would have said so.

I would go so far as to say no judges should be attorneys.

Now, I know the attorneys are going to object (heh) to that, but what I'm asking for is you, Mr. Law School Boy (or Girl), to be able to explain your case, so the layman can understand it, and then be subjected to the wisdom of other people, outside the law profession, to be able to interpret your nonsense, in a way that "normal" people can understand.

If you can't do that, you lose your case.

It’s worse than this indicates. Look around you.

Anybody? Bueller?

The Texas Tribune: February 13, 2016, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia Found Dead in West Texas. U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, 79, was found dead of apparent natural causes Saturday morning at the Cibolo Creek Ranch resort near Marfa, a Presidio County official confirmed.

"U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, 79, was found dead of apparent natural causes Saturday morning at the Cibolo Creek Ranch resort near Marfa, Presidio County officials confirmed.

Presidio County Judge Cinderella Guevara pronounced Scalia dead after 1 p.m., Justice of the Peace David Beebe told The Texas Tribune.

Scalia, appointed to the court by President Ronald Reagan in 1986, was found in his room at the Cibolo Creek Ranch after he did not appear for breakfast, the San Antonio Express-News reported.

The longest-serving justice on the court, Scalia was known for his conservative judicial philosophy. His death will have a major impact on the nation's highest court, which now has four justices appointed by Democratic presidents and four appointed by Republicans."
