One of the Supreme Court's longtime reporters said the 'leading theory' is that a conservative clerk leaked the majority draft opinion indicating the high court is poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.

One of the Supreme Court's longtime reporters said the"leading theory" is that a conservative clerk leaked the majority draft opinion indicating the high court is poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.

"The leading theory is a conservative clerk who was afraid that one of the conservatives might be persuaded by Chief Justice Roberts to join a much more moderate opinion," Totenberg said during an appearance Sunday on ABC's This Week.Totenberg also dismissed speculation that the leak originated from the liberal side.

Despite the upheaval, Totenberg said she believes that it is"very unlikely" that the leaker will be found.

😂if it had been a Conservative the name would have been leaked days ago, the person doxxed and lib protesters trying to burn down his/her house!!

She doesn't cite any evidence. This is purely her opinion.

Yeah, sure Nina. Good old Nina isn't exactly a centrist. It makes sense that she'd theorize a conservative leaked it. Makes more sense that it was a dem since they are so low in the polls they need something to energize the libtards.

Absurd. Clearly it was a leftist,.. for the exact purpose we see playing out

HelloKarma2021 I call bullshit on this one! If it had been a conservative clerk they would already have been outed, tried and convicted by the liberals

Fire all the clerks and I'm sure someone knows who did it. Now

Well, she’s on the record without any evidence. Be interesting to see, if she turns out to be wrong, if she will acknowledge her partisan hackery to the same audience.

Is she first on the bandwagon? I would've thought this would be prime narrative by now. Or is it that MSM is looking and saying even I'm not touching that.

BS says what?

And your evidence would be.......

Fake news

Possible.

She’s gone out of her way to destroy her reputation in the last 2 years. Why?

Is aborting Panda fetuses ethical?

By “leading theory” she means, “my opinion!”

Possibly…but I don’t think so, the Democrat hive knew this would charge up it’s base, look how they are responding-either way it shouldn’t take to long to figure it out, it’s only a couple dozen people that had access to the report.

Why are we even giving our tax money to these idiots .. NPR should be abolished

It is time the Democrats run against the Supreme Court, you can. Do what you want but if you don't do it you will loose. The Republicans don't care, but they do care about the Supreme Court.....M to Come.
