Nobody on TBR is surprised by this. We all said that they would never find anything and that nothing would happen. And here it is. Just like we all predicted. Somebody or some group of people know what happened and why. But they are not talking yet.
We can only hope for some 'tell all' book in the future (which often happens) that will reveal the whole story. Short of that, nothing will come of it.

If it was a leftist, that will only take 10 years at the outside. They can't help themselves, and the thought of fame and money buys secrets, every time.

There is no doubt that the Justices have adapted to the new environment, i.e., that staffers and aides cannot be trusted. No doubt that procedures have been modified and adjusted to make this 'leak' problem less likely to happen. This idea only works if it was not one of the Justices themselves who did the leak. But still, I'm sure things have changed at least 'somewhat' with the idea of leaky staff in mind.

You mean to tell me that every single person working in the Supreme Court building passed a polygraph?

Supreme Court marshal says justices were part of investigation, but didn't sign sworn affidavits
The Supreme Court Marshal said that she didn't believe it was necessary to ask the justices to sign sworn affidavits
By Bill Mears , Shannon Bream , Adam Sabes | Fox News
Supreme Court Marshal Gail Curley said that justices were part of the investigation into who leaked a draft opinion to Politico last year.
"During the course of the investigation, I spoke with each of the Justices, several on multiple occasions. The Justices actively cooperated in this iterative process, asking questions and answering mine. I followed up on all credible leads, none of which implicated the Justices or their spouses. On this basis, I did not believe that it was necessary to ask the Justices to sign sworn affidavits," Curley said in a statement on Friday.
Curley's statement comes one day after the Supreme Court Marshal released a report stating that an investigative team hasn't been able to "identify a person responsible by a preponderance of the evidence" who leaked the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization draft opinion.

Go back and get a signed, sworn affidavit from each of the Justices. They deserve no special treatment.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's another leak, perhaps late in the spring.
The upcoming Students For Fairness in Admissions v. Harvard decision has the potential to be of more import than was Dobbs last year...
