SCOTUS and media silence: Whatever happened
to the leak probe?

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 7/25/2022 7:09:43 PM

The leak rocked the federal judiciary, the American political scene, and led to an ugly campaign to intimidate Supreme Court justices, inspiring one assassination plot that thankfully went nowhere. Chief Justice John Roberts promised an investigation to identify the leaker, and the pool of suspects seemed relatively small — the justices themselves and their clerks. Almost three months later, though, the leaker has seemingly escaped detection and punishment. Are they even still investigating the leak? The Associated Press can’t even get an answer to that question from the court:

My money says that the leak came directly from a Justice and Roberts knows which one but hasn't the balls to face an impeachment of a Justice for doing it.

You can bet from now on clerks will be told not to discuss written opinions with each other & that all papers will be marked & secured.

I think they know exactly who the leaker is. I think it is one of the liberal justice's clerks to be honest. They won't endanger those justices any more than they can help it.

This makes me believe that the leak most likely came from john Roberts, or Bryers. on the one hand Roberts would be forced to step down to be replaced by a activist leftist. it would also solidify public opinion of his bought-and-paid-for liberal concessions. on the other hand, if it came from Bryers, it wouldn't change anything except further aggravate public opinion about activists on the court and tarnish Bryers' reputation. THAT might get a whole lot of dirt dug up all over and Bryers, with nothing to lose, might reveal skeletons in numerous closets.

I think the leak was intentional by the majority to deaden the freakout. Yes there was a freakout, but it was not that strong because it was not official. When it became official, not much more needed to be said, because it was already said.

I predicted at the time that six months would pass, and then the liberal clerk who leaked will step forward in a WaPo op-ed: "I leaked the Roe v. Wade decision in an attempt to save democracy in America, and I would do it again" -- and all the media will hail her as a hero.

There are at least ten spliced edits in the video, some coming seconds apart, others minutes apart.

Chris Cuomo said he learned a lot about himself during the scandal and lead-up to his firing in a clip from his upcoming interview. “I have been obsessed with what happened, when what was known, and there are a lot of facts that are going to come out,” he said.

Fox News declined to air former President Donald Trump’s Tuesday speech at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) summit, despite airing a speech by Vice President Mike Pence hours earlier. Although the network skipped Trump’s speech, Fox News aired former Vice President Mike Pence’s speech at the Young Americas Foundation’s national student conference just hours before Trump spoke.

Among the plethora of “white supremacy,” “systemic racism,” “inherent racism,” and other race-related charges by America’s race-obsessed left, a recent declaration by Joe Biden’s incoming White House Deputy National Cyber Director is the current title holder, in my book. Camille Stewart, a former Google strategist, has argued that the U.S. “national security apparatus must be a part of dismantling systemic racism,” and that “pursuing anti-racist and anti-hate policy outcomes” should be a chief national security focus for the Biden administration, as reported by the Washington Free Beacon. So there you have it, America. No need to worry about cyberattacks from Russia, China, Iran, or any of the other

President Biden is considering extending a Covid-19-induced pause on student loan payments yet again and the federal government has in recent weeks told student loan servicers not to contact borrowers about making payments again one month ahead of the moratorium's deadline.

The current moratorium is expected to end Aug. 31 and Biden could extend it through the end of 2022 or until next summer as the president seeks to appeal to young voters ahead of the midterm elections.

But the AFPI Trojan Horse—whose leadership is now bragging about how it will staff Trump’s “shadow cabinet”—is decidedly not that.
