Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, on Wednesday blamed a "woke little left-wing
twit" for leaking the Supreme Court’s draft of a decision on abortion, speculating that the possible suspect may be one of 12 law clerks
currently employed by Democrat-appointed justices.

"It is difficult to overstate how destructive it is to the Supreme
Court, to the independence of the judiciary, to the integrity of the
court, to have a draft opinion leaked during the process of deciding
the case," Cruz said on "Jesse Watters Primetime."

Cut!

Cruz said he thinks there is a "very good chance" of finding out who is responsible.

"If you look at the court, it’s actually a very limited universe of
people who it could be," he told guest host Brian Kilmeade. "The only
people that have access to the opinions are the nine justices and their
law clerks. Each justice has four clerks so that’s 36 law clerks. And
there are a handful of clerical assistants and secretaries who might
have it."

The chances that a justice would be responsible for such a "grave
betrayal" of the court are "zero," Cruz asserted.

"If it is a law clerk and very likely a law clerk for one of the
three liberal justices, that means there are 12 likely suspects," he
said.

Cut!

"We will find this person," Cruz continued. "And when they are found,
they are going to be fired on the spot. They will be disbarred if
they’re members of the bar, or they will never be admitted to the bar
to be a lawyer, and to the extent that they have broken criminal laws,
they need to be prosecuted and sent to jail."
