The Democrats have jumped on the Supreme Court leak like a Siamese Fighting Fish that jumped into the adjacent bowl. It has been revealed that the White House was aware of the Supreme Court leak a couple of days before the news appeared in Politico. This advance notice was not enough time for Joe Biden to have an answer ready for the media yesterday when they asked about the leak. Two days to prepare for the most obvious question, and he had nothing. What a surprise.
The White House, specifically Joe Biden, was prepared today with a web fundraising campaign geared around the leak fiasco. There also was an obvious synchronized message from the Democrats and the media. They were all on the same page as if they had been coordinating their efforts for weeks rather than one news cycle. Kamala Harris was animated as she lied to a group she was addressing, claiming the Supreme Court was about to outlaw abortion. It just isn’t true. She screamed at the Republicans, saying “how dare they” repeatedly. It was loud but ineffective.
The overreaction was hyperbolic. The Senate has called for immediate legislation to codify the right to an abortion for any woman in any state. The radical Left, Warren and Sanders, called for the immediate destruction of the two-thirds majority by blowing up the filibuster. It is not so much support for killing the unborn but placating the Radical Left. Abortion, or reproductive rights, is the number one issue of many members of Gen-Z.
If the leaked draft were to become the final Court decision, many say it would correct a mistake by the Court over fifty years ago. There is nothing in the Constitution that refers to terminating the life of an unborn baby The Roe V. Wade decision took the control away from the states to set parameters on abortion to conform to the wish of its residents. Overturning Roe V. Wade will return abortion to the states where it belongs.
There is also no mention of any other issue in the draft. Biden’s statement that Same-Sex Marriage is also in the crosshairs is to fuel the misinformation. Instead of healing, he stoked the activists on the left, who quickly took to the streets before the ink was dry on the leak.
This overreaction did not start with the leak but can be traced back to 2020 when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer stood on the steps of the Supreme Court and called out newly confirmed justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. He threatened they would have to answer for their actions should they ever rule against Roe V. Wade.
This abortion story will be the rallying cry for the Democrats. Biden calls Republicans the MAGA crowd that is the most radical in our history. He tells his listeners that they must elect more Democrats in November or lose control of the country. His words validate my belief that the leaders of the Democrats orchestrated this leak. The money has been flowing into Democrat coffers since Tuesday. The Dems show that this is a crisis that they will milk for all its worth.
This rhetoric is embarrassing and infuriating. To listen to Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders rant about the hypothetical next decisions that the Court will be handing down would be comical if not so serious. Biden says that LGBTQ students will be banned from classrooms. Harris says that the Court has told women they no longer have control of their bodies. Warren says that the Court has no legitimacy. Sanders wants to blow up the filibuster and pack the Court. NONE of these are true. These amateur hacks are doing nothing but stir the base with lies. You can throw Psaki into that bunch. She twisted words into pretzels during her briefing today. These people do not deserve our time or respect. With each sound bite, I am more convinced this whole charade has been orchestrated by the Dems, and it will have a short run.
