Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ remarks on the leaked draft opinion signaling the potential demise of Roe v. Wade has antagonized liberals on social media.
During the 11th Circuit judicial conference on Friday, the conservative justice slammed the leak and the subsequent pro-abortion backlash as an attempt to bully the court into delivering "outcomes" that certain groups want.
He stated, "We can't be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that."
Earlier in the week, Thomas’ Supreme Court colleague Justice Roberts slammed the leak as well and insisted that the court wouldn’t be bullied into ruling differently. He called the leak "absolutely appalling," and added, "If the person behind it thinks that it will affect our work, that’s just foolish."
