BOOK: Liberal Justice Kagan Screamed “So Loudly” at Justice Breyer After Dobbs Draft Leak that the ‘Wall Was Shaking’

Following the leak of the Dobbs draft, liberal Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan reportedly screamed “so loudly” at then-Justice Stephen Breyer that the “wall was shaking.”

A draft of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was leaked to Politico’s senior legal reporter Josh Gerstein in May 2022.

Via Politico at the time of the leak: “The Supreme Court has voted to strike down the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito circulated inside the court and obtained by POLITICO.”

Justice Alito’s opinion is a “full-throated, unflinching repudiation” Politico said.

A year later, conservative justice Alito came out and said the draft leak “made us targets of assassination.”

According author and Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway’s new book, “Alito,” Kagan confronted Breyer in May shortly after the Dobbs draft leak. The Supreme Court issued its decision on Roe v Wade in late June.

Alito had reportedly told his liberal colleagues to hurry up and finish writing their dissents because of an increase in security risks and death threats shortly after the Dobbs draft leaked.

Hemingway said Breyer was going to comply with Alito’s request.

Kagan literally wanted to delay the release of the Supreme Court’s opinion amid death threats against her conservative colleages.

“Though he had not said he would accommodate the justices whose lives were at risk by getting out a dissent, [Breyer] was the member of the liberal bloc most willing to do so,” Hemingway wrote, according to Fox News. “Fiercely liberal in his jurisprudence and in strong disagreement with the majority decision, he nevertheless was a gentleman and a friend to all on the Court. Kagan remonstrated with Breyer not to accommodate the majority, screaming so loudly, observers noted, that the ‘wall was shaking.’”

Fox News reported:

Justice Elena Kagan’s frustrations boiled over in the aftermath of the Dobbs opinion leak in 2022, leading her to allegedly scream “so loudly” at Justice Stephen Breyer that the “wall was shaking,” observers said, according to a new book.

Conservative author and Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway’s forthcoming book “Alito,” reviewed by Fox News Digital and set for release Tuesday, details the incident and other heated moments surrounding the leak, which spurred waves of protests and death threats against the five conservative justices expected to overturn Roe that year.

The Supreme Court’s deep division on abortion was clear at the time, but the book reveals that a typically unified liberal bloc was also fractured.

Hemingway wrote that Kagan, an Obama appointee, angrily confronted Breyer, a Clinton appointee, in May 2022 behind closed doors after at least one justice, Samuel Alito, had asked his liberal colleagues to speed up writing their dissent because of security threats. Breyer was most likely to agree to Alito’s request, Hemingway wrote.

In 2023, the Supreme Court issued a report on the Dobbs draft leak.

The report says the leaker could not be found and that new protocols for drafts have been put in place.

97 Supreme Court staffers were interviewed and signed sworn affidavits under penalty of perjury denying being the Dobbs draft leaker.

Justice Alito said despite this report, he likely knows who the leaker is.

Alito said the leaker’s motive was to stop the Supreme Court from overturning Roe v Wade.

Elena Kagan is a psychopath. At the very moment conservative justices were at risk of being assassinated following the Dobbs leak (but before its official release), Kagan tried to delay the release of the opinion. Maybe in the hopes one of her colleagues would be murdered and the…
