Last I looked, scrotus was neither DoD or State, and there are NO state

secrets, NO sensitive intelligence, (little verifiable mental acuity amoung some members, either) involved.

So why the screaming poutrage? It is not as if these woman-hating scum have not been telegraphing their intentions. There is no real surprise here. But let us have screaming, foaming-at-the-mouth hysteria over it.

One wonders what in the hell they are hiding that is worse than that which we already know or at least suspect.

May they, and all their enablers and supporters, receive everything they deserve.

That said, if a clerk or employee leaked it, you fire them. If it was a justice, not much you can do.

May 2022

Whoever embezzles, steals, purloins, or knowingly converts to his use or the use of another, or without authority, sells, conveys or disposes of any record, voucher, money, or thing of value of the United States or of any department or agency thereof, or any property made or being made under contract for the United States or any department or agency thereof; or

Whoever receives, conceals, or retains the same with intent to convert it to his use or gain, knowing it to have been embezzled, stolen, purloined or converted—

Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; but if the value of such property in the aggregate, combining amounts from all the counts for which the defendant is convicted in a single case, does not exceed the sum of $1,000, he shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

The word “value” means face, par, or market value, or cost price, either wholesale or retail, whichever is greater.

They swore under oath that they would uphold Roe as it was a done deal. The SUPREME COURT JUSTICES LIED UNDER OATH! THEY COMMITTED PERJURY.

They have condemned women as worthless creatures. We are nothing now and are on our own.
Next up??? They will try to take away our vote.

Whenever I have pointed this out, I have been told that I should not take their blathering seriously, that it was only a couple of random crackpots.

Pisswig the demented moron wanted to swap Puerto Rico for Greenland; most of the GOP are proven traitors; and Jared Kushner, Prince Hacksaw, their oil-soaked chum Putin, and the international drug cartels set the action agenda for global capital, anything can happen.

Glad you are reminding us to expect the unexpected.
