    Vox senior correspondent Ian Millhiser took major flak Monday after
    tweeting praise for the person who leaked the alleged draft of a
    Supreme Court opinion signaling the end of Roe v Wade as a "hero"
    who wanted to "burn this place down."

    After the possible draft opinion was leaked on Monday evening,
    something that has never happened in the history of the court,
    liberals fired off frenzied reactions in response to this threat to
    abortion rights.

    Millhiser praised the leaker on Twitter, saying he was "glad" the
    draft was leaked for the sake of promoting "anger and distrust"
    against the "irredeemable" Court. He also called the leaker a "hero"
    and praised their motives for leaking, which he interpreted as
    injecting some necessary chaos and anarchy in the judicial process.

    He first tweeted, "The draft Roe opinion appears to be as bad as
    expected, but I’m glad it leaked because this leak will foster anger
    and distrust within the irredeemable institution that is the Supreme
    Court of the United States."

    He then tweeted, "Seriously, shout out to whoever the hero was
    within the Supreme Court who said ‘f--k it! Let’s burn this place
    down.’"

    However, conservatives on Twitter did not find this historic breach
    of SCOTUS protocol admirable or heroic and several accused Millhiser
    of supporting "insurrection."

    "I wonder if the Jan 6th commission will now be looking into these
    leftist calls to insurrection?" tweeted Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla..

    "This tweet will prove wise and prudent when a mob literally tries
    to burn the Supreme Court down within the next couple week," tweeted
    Reason editor Christian Britschgi.

    "Journalists should not be advocating for the destruction of the
    Supreme Court, actually," Accuracy in Media pointed out.

    Fox News contributor Ari Fleischer tweeted, "Like I said, leaking
    this draft is an insurrection against the Court. And some on the
    left are looking forward to it."

    National Review editor Rich Lowry said, "This has been their
    attitude all along, they’re just too desperate to bother hiding it
    anymore."

    "Trump’s tweets are a threat to our democracy! Also, burn it all
    down when we don’t get our way!" tweeted conservative columnist
    Derek Hunter.

    Conservative writer Nicole Russell rebuked the Vox journo, tweeting,
    "This is not heroic."

    Conservative radio host Dan O’Donnell called the leak an
    "insurrection" and accused Millhiser of supporting it. He tweeted,
    "Ian cheering on an insurrection at the Supreme Court," along with a
    photo of one of the January 6 rioters smiling while trespassing in
    the Capitol building.

    Independent journalist Tim Pool tweeted similarly, writing that
    Millhiser’s post was "Literal insurrection."

    The Federalist CEO Sean Davis tweeted, "If walking through a door at
    the Capitol held open by police is sedition, what happened tonight
    is treason that could lead to violent attacks on justices
    themselves. Everyone involved—esp. those calling to ‘burn this place down’—needs to be investigated, tried, and convicted."

    Lawyer and conservative pundit Harmeet Dhillon responded, tweeting,
    "Libs saying the quiet part out loud."

    Real Clear Investigations Deputy Editor Benjamin Weingarten tweeted,
    "This is who they are. This is what they believe. Never forget the
    fraudulence of the narrative of insurrection and the damage they
    have done to liberty and justice in this country in exploiting it."

    "Internet, do your thing. I’d like to know Mr. Ian’s position on muh January 6," conservative YouTube personality Eric July tweeted.

    Former Acting Director of the United States National Intelligence
    Richard Grenell tweeted, "learn to code, Ian. Journalism isn’t your
    thing."
    And RedState Deputy Managing Editor Kira Davis tweeted, "Let's see,
    I think if we're playing by lefty rules we now have to start shadow
    banning liberal accounts, restricting their access to social media,
    and stop normalizing them by having them on the talk show circuit
    and in the @nytimes."

    "All liberals are violent! Did I do that right?" she added.

    "They don’t care about the integrity of the institution. They care
    about abortion. That’s it," tweeted National Review writer Alexandra DeSanctis Marr.
