Trump Wants Reporters Arrested To Find Source Of Leaked SCOTUS Draft Ruling On Roe "Stop playing gam

[ProudMNDemocrat]

Here is the problem...There is this thing called the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution that allows for Freedom of The Press. Throw in the 6th Amendment that guarantees trial by a jury of one's peers to determine guilt or innocence in a Court of Law. In the leaking of the memo of the eventual overturning of Roe v. Wade, a service was done to rally women in this country to fight for their right to bodily autonomy and make personal decisions regarding their health care. TDFG is too stupid to know the the US Constitution is specific on such matters.

“Stop playing games, this leaking cannot be allowed to happen,” Trump railed. “It won’t take long before the name of this slime is revealed!”

Trump insisted Thursday that “the reporter” who published the leaked Supreme Court draft ruling overturning Roe v. Wade be jailed until the source of the leak can be determined.

Though Trump did not name any particular individual or publication, the draft majority opinion was first reported on in Politico last May by journalists Josh Gerstein and Alexander Ward. Trump also called for throwing “the publisher and editor” behind bars.

15. "...name of this slime is revealed."

Well that should be relatively easy because I'm going with Sammy "Not True" Alito as my first choice with the seditious duo of Clarence and Ginni a close second.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

16. Wouldn't that be something if that were them?

TDFG would shit an orange pile for sure.

[muriel_volestrangler]

17. Arrested? What actual crime was involved in publishing a draft decision?

Sure, it went against the court's procedures, and if it had been a staff member rather than Alito or another Justice, then they might have said "this is grounds for termination". But arresting people just because they wrote about something you think they shouldn't have - well, it's a authoritarian, tyrannical move.
