The matter of leaking the Supreme Court’s draft opinion on Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization has drawn into the open the Progressive-Democratic Party’s and its politicians’ utter contempt for law, along with these persons’ preference for our nation being ruled by men—so long as those men are members of Party.
Here are a couple of canonical examples. First up, President Joe Biden (D) through his Press Secretary, Jen Psaki:
Q Why not criticize this leak?
MS. PSAKI: Again, because I think what is happening here, and what we think is happening here, is there’s an effort to distract from what the actual issue here—
…
MS. PSAKI: And we are not—we are working not—to not allow that to be the distraction.
Next up is Congressman Adam Schiff (D, CA):
I don’t care how the draft leaked. That’s a sideshow[.]
Laws are just distractions, sideshows, to be set aside, to be ignored, whenever they become inconvenient.
This disregard for the protection that laws give all of us against the vagaries, whims, egos of others of us and the preference for those vagaries, whims, egos—so long as it’s the right men who have them—need to be kept firmly in mind this fall.
