The right-wing reaction to the leak of the Supreme Court draft decision seeking to overturn Roe was interesting to watch, predictable, but interesting. The usual suspects railed loudly and often, pearls firmly clutched, about the breach of protocol that allowed a draft decision to leak out to the fake news media. The same folks who called January 6 “legitimate political discourse” were now appalled someone would have the audacity to leak a decision stripping half the U.S.
The right wants to pick and choose what rights Americans can have without those same Americans putting in their two cents, and that’s not how things work here. This is the problem with writing your own history books. If you try to take away something that’s been a constitutional right for half a century by citing legal arguments dating back to the Salem witch trials, people are going to show up in your front yard.
