‘Get bent’: Mitch McConnell dragged over statement in response to Roe v. Wade leak – By Jacob Seitz (Daily Dot) / May 3, 2022
Twitter users are lashing out over Mitch McConnell’s response to the bombshell Politico report alleging that Roe v. Wade will be overturned.
In the statement, Republican Senate Leader McConnell refers to the leaked majority opinion drafted by Justice Samuel Alito as a “stunning breach” and an “attack on the independence of the Supreme Court.” McConnell said the leak was “yet another escalation in the radical left’s ongoing campaign to bully and intimidate federal judges and substitute mob rule for the rule of law.”
Twitter users were quick to levy criticism at the 80-year-old Senator.
“The leak came from the Supreme Court, and you are criticizing the leaker, so if anyone is “attacking the independence of the Supreme Court,” it’s you,” one user wrote. “Also: Get bent.”
