The Best Defense Is A Strong Offense

Justice Alito says he has a 'good idea' of who leaked Roe v. Wade draft https://t.co/9oBs9gYoLv

Alito could tell you; but then he’d have to kill you.

"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,” he said, according to the report. 

The justice also said he is sure about one thing: the motive: 

“It was a part of an effort to prevent the Dobbs draft . . . from becoming the decision of the court," Alito reportedly said. "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.”

And brave, brave Sir Robin alone is escaped alive to tell thee. And he wasn’t intimidated! Did you get that part? He stood firm like a mighty oak because, what were they gonna do? Impeach him?

😂😂😂😂 

Yeah; that means “No chance in hell.”

Those of us who were thought to be in the majority, thought to have approved my draft opinion, were really targets of assassination,” Alito reportedly said in the Wall Street Journal interview. “It was rational for people to believe that they might be able to stop the decision in Dobbs by killing one of us.”

I think I missed the attempted assassination of a Supreme Court Justice. Must have been off Twitter that day.

This is clearly the article JMM was referencing:

His tweet confirmed my decision not to pay for a Rupert Murdoch publication. This Raw Story article tells me I was right. And Josh is right, too.

I still say Alito leaked it. Pretty much for this reason. Why else tease you know who did, but you can never say?
