Conservative lawyer challenges NYT reporter Maggie Haberman’s claim that Trump’s Supreme Court list was ‘screened’ by Federalist Society
A conservative lawyer offered a case to debunk tweets by Maggie Haberman, White House correspondent for the New York Times, in which she said everyone on President Trump’s list of 25 Supreme Court candidates is against abortion and has been vetted by the Federalist Society, a right-leaning legal organization.
“They’re all against abortion – they’ve been screened by the Federalist Society – making this point moot,” Haberman tweeted Sunday in response to a tweet quoting Trump stating during a Fox News interview that he will “probably not” ask potential nominees how they would vote in any cases related to Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that made abortion legal nationwide.
