Police set up security barricades around the United States Supreme Court building after a draft opinion reportedly overturning Roe vs. Wade was leaked. The justice’s draft opinion is then circulated among the other eight justices for their review and so that any who wish to draft their own concurring or dissenting opinions may do so. Never before in the Court’s history has a draft opinion ever been leaked, and the highly contentious topic raised immediate security concerns. Right now: Barricades are up around the Supreme Court building, just minutes after reports from Politico were leaked indicating SCOTUS has voted to overturn Roe v. Wade. AT THE SUPREME COURT — Barricades have been set up (“by order of the Suprmee Court Marshal,” they say).
