halfulglas's JournalMedia - please quit saying Fetterman is not a typical Democrat!!
I'm sick of this. They all keep saying Fetterman isn't a typical Democrat. Many who don't specifically identify as Progressive, are still Democrat and like him. I like him. Democrats are more like their typical constituents than Republicans are.
On the other hand, who in the media consistently calls out those Harvard, Yale and Rhode scholar Repubs who play the good ole boy, down home corn pone who can't speak correct English to the Trump base and let their voters eat it up? It may be smart politics but in this case they don't do both siderism.
Rant over.
Suggestion in discussion with person using RW talking points of punish the leaker.
Look really shocked and say, Oh my gosh! Do you really think they'll jail Ginni Thomas for this?
What is this reversal of Roe going to do HIPAA regulations?
When HIPAA came in while I worked in the medical field I had to watch a training film about confidentially and sign it twice yearly about confidentiality of anything I learned about patients. In these disgusting states that have bounties to enforce their antiwomen laws will these people who work in doctors' offices, ERs, etc. be fired if they snitch to the authorities their suspicion or outright knowledge of a woman needing an abortion? It just blows my mind that this might set back medical privacy 25 years. How are you going to enforce HIPAA privacy for some but not for everyone?
My vote for the leaker of the SP opinion.
I'm basing this on the fact that this is the first draft, not one of subsequent drafts, and the fairly wide speculation that it was a conservative who leaked to put pressure on the court members not to soften or moderate Alito's hard line. Most ex justice clerks claim it's unthinkable that the leaker was one of the clerks. Considering that it's the first draft, I'm thinking maybe a particular judge took it home and it fell into the hands of his wife who thinks since both she and her husband are interchangeable to do each other's jobs. She probably thinks it's her job to put pressure on the other judges now.
You guessed it, I'm placing my bet on Ginni Thomas.
