All righty. So, John Roberts, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, has now acknowledged that the leaked Supreme Court draft majority opinion decision by Justice Alito, striking down road versus Wade is indeed legitimate. He says, however, that because it is a first draft, it is not a final draft, it's not clear which way the court is going to go, or if this decision is going to look exactly like the decision that comes out from the court,

1:47.0

according to the Wall Street Journal, a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito and published late Monday by Politico indicated the court may be preparing to overturn Roe versus Wade. Chief Justice John Roberts confirmed in his statement that the draft written by Justice Samuel Alito was authentic. He said it was not necessarily the final resolution of the case. He said this was a singular and egregious breach of trust. I mean, he's correct. It is a singular and egregious breach of of trust. He would know about that considering that he wrote the Obamacare decision. Justice Roberts condemned the leak, said he had directed the court's marshal to investigate the matter. So we have now reached the timeline where the marshal of the Supreme Court actually may arrest somebody, which is pretty amazing. The 67 page opinion declared what was egregiously wrong and deeply damaging. The court is expected to actually issue the opinion by the end of June or early July. But the truth is, at this point, the court should just release it. The court should just move forward and release this opinion and then we can be done because otherwise this is just going to simmer for nigh on two months. And there's no purpose to that at all. In the meantime, states are moving in various directions on abortion. So you have more conservative-leaning states already moving to enshrine the right to life. and you are seeing liberal leaning states enshrining the right to abortion all the way basically up until you are about, I don't know, 67 years old or so.
