When the communist left “protested” in front of John Roberts house yesterday, I just couldn’t understand why. He’s basically one of them. Now comes a report that Roberts is trying to get Amy Coney-Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh to change their votes on revoking Roe V. Wade. Seems like the the left wing thugism on the left is working.
Chief Justice John Roberts, who has at times sided with the liberal wing of the court, still appears set to oppose the decision, with the report noting that Roberts was still attempting to persuade Coney Barrett and Kavanaugh to take a more incremental approach to allowing abortion restrictions.
The decision is expected to be firmly opposed by the court’s three liberal justices.
The leaking of the draft opinion stunned many observers of the court, who noted that the draft does not reflect the final decision of the justices and their votes could change between when the draft was written and when the decision is officially announced.
Roberts said as much while confirming the authenticity of the draft, opening an investigation into the leak and stressing that the justices have not yet completed deliberations.
“To the extent this betrayal of the confidences of the Court was intended to undermine the integrity of our operations, it will not succeed,” Roberts said in a statement last week. “The work of the Court will not be affected in any way.”
