Who leaked abortion ruling? That's not rocket science IMHO.

The FBI should give Supreme Court members lie detector tests, along with one of their wives that likes to act like she and her husband are both Justices,

1. Alito could have leaked it himself

Anyone bother to ask?

[Thomas Hurt]

2. I read they had found a retired general or some such to investigate this.

This was shortly after the outrage began. Not a peep since AFAIK.

4. Government is a "good ole boys" club. They protect their own. It is bipartisan.

5. Cui bono?

Makes more sense if the leak is from the conservatives.

[MOMFUDSKI]

6. The Hobby Lobby outcome was

leaked over dinner to the right people. It is a big Club but we aren't in it.

[world wide wally]

7. Why does that even matter?

[Disaffected]

8. Lie detectors

don't work. Which is why lie detector evidence is not admissible in court (including the Supreme Court).

9. They only work

If you feel guilt. Alito doesn’t feel guilt. He is self righteous.

11. Actually they don't work

whether or not guilt is felt i.e. they don't "work" in the sense that the results are unreliable and based on pseudoscience. That's why they are not admissible court evidence.

They are however utilized by law enforcement and do have some utility in that most perps think they do work and are therefore more prone to confessing in hopes of getting a better deal (downside is though this can also result in coercing a confession from an innocent suspect).

I recall a story in that regard, supposedly true, where the cops improvised a lie detector machine with a metal colander and a photo copier. They placed the colander on a suspects head, ran a wire from it to the copier and programmed the copier to print a sheet with large letters saying either "truth" or "lie". They would ask a question, start the copier with the desired reply and show the results to the suspect. Apparently it worked (in getting a confession that is).

10. My money's on Thomas and his MAGA loving wife.
