The deep-state is now attacking SCOTUS!
I believe this was done to influence the mid-term elections!
I am hesitant to believe that it was intended to influence the mid-term elections. Here's my logic;
The SCOTUS opinion on these cases would have been released by July at the latest (end of the current SCOTUS session). This is well before the general election in November. Therefore, leaking the information now, or letting it come out thru the normal process would have generated the same result.
I offer the following alternative theory;
This leak was an attempt to influence one or more justices that were barely in the majority of supporting overturning Roe V Wade. The opinion and vote count is not official yet and is subject to change. The leaker may have hoped that public pressure could sway the single vote needed to flip the opinion and uphold Roe V Wade.
I like the squishy justice senario. Influncing the election is bonus points because, this will.
