the justices themselves were interviewed and let s understand something, this person called the marshal of the supreme court, her boss is the court. they pay her salary. they decide if she gets a raise. what would that interview even look like if it was done? mrs. justice, you re wearing a lovely broach today, could i trouble you with a question? you don t know about this leak, do you? since i got you here, i would like a raise next year if we could talk about that. that s how that would go. so this is not an investigation and there s no serious intent to get to the bottom of it in my opinion. so why would a sham what you re describing as a sham investigation, why would a sham investigation be ordered if justice alito felt that his, quote, assassination was possible because of the leak? well, since we re not in the conjecture business, let s answer it generically.
