Media Blackout On Bombshell Alito Reporting Shows They Couldn’t Hate The Constitution More
Maisey Jefferson
Mollie Hemingway’s new book on Justice Samuel Alito, released last week, explosively revealed that the liberal justices on the Supreme Court intentionally delayed the release of the Dobbs decision — even as their conservative colleagues’ lives were at risk after the unprecedented leak of the majority opinion in May 2022.
The media outlets that feign concern about SCOTUS propriety and accountability — only insofar as it harms conservatives — have unsurprisingly shrugged off this clearly political behavior of the Democrat-appointed members of the high court. They don’t care that the liberal minority put their conservative colleagues’ lives at risk in a seeming attempt to preserve the so-called “right” to murder babies. In fact, they cheered the threats on.
According to Mollie Hemingway, the draft of the Dobbs majority opinion overturning the devastating abortion precedents of Roe and Casey was penned and circulated by Justice Samuel Alito by early February of 2022. Three whole months later, after a draft of the opinion was leaked, the three dissenting justices — Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan — were reportedly still “nowhere near done” with the dissent. It had been months since they had the opinion — not to mention the 50 years they had to decide how they felt about Roe. Despite urging to get their dissents in after the leak, the liberals on the court slow-walked all the way to June 1.
However, that was not the end of the delay. As Hemingway noted, they included an “evil Easter egg” in the dissent — a footnote reference to another decision that was not yet released, thus delaying Dobbs by another three weeks. Meanwhile, the conservative majority faced angry protestors outside their homes, threats against their families and children, and a literal assassination attempt. Hemingway also reported how, although Justice Breyer was the “most willing” to speed things up for his colleagues’ sake, Justice Kagan “screamed” at him so loudly not to accommodate them that observers said the “wall was shaking.”
