Former President Donald Trump called on authorities to arrest the journalists and editors who published the leak of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision.
The decision was leaked a month prior to its announcement, sending shock waves throughout the Supreme Court and mobilizing pro-abortion rights activists.
After the recent announcement that authorities were unable to find the person who leaked the decision, Trump proposed a solution antithetical to the First Amendment of the Constitution.

“Arrest the reporter, publisher, editor – you’ll get your answer fast. Stop playing games and wasting time!” he wrote on Truth Social.

“The Supreme Court has just announced it is not able to find out, even with the help of our ‘crack’ FBI, who the leaker was on the R v Wade scandal. They’ll never find out, & it’s important that they do. So, go to the reporter & ask him/her who it was. If not given the answer, put whoever in jail until the answer is given,” he added.
“You might add the publisher and editor to the list. Stop playing games, this leaking cannot be allowed to happen. It won’t take long before the name of this slime is revealed!” the former president continued.
