interestingly this order was signed by justice samuel alito. he's the same justice who put out the initial order at the end of last week. now he's the justice who oversees the fifth circuit. so he's putting this new ruling out , saying that the state that was issued on friday is hereby extended until 11 59 pm next sorry this friday. april 21st so wow. so once again, the supreme court is really just kicking the can down the road at this point now, just two days, 2.5 days. yeah so this this state will be into effect until almost midnight friday into saturday. so we're really going to go through this whole thing yet again for the third time come friday, and we're gonna be seeing what the supreme court does. it's unclear why they're only issuing it for this short amount of time. it's possible. that the justices are still wrangling behind the scenes is exactly what to do here, and that's why we're getting these incremental holds on this lower court ruling. jessica, we're going to give you a minute to read all the details, so please stand by. we want

also tonight samuel alito says he has a pretty good idea who leaked draft version of the ruling that overturned roe v. wade. what does alito? no supreme court investigation did not reveal? never for busing white house photos were just made public showing then president obama and top officials as the historic mission to kill osama bin laden was playing. out the man behind the camera, former white house photographer, pete souza, he will join us this hour. welcome to our viewers here in united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. here in the situation room. tonight nearly two dozen ukrainians, men women and children, are dead. at least four children among the dead after a russian strike on a residential building. residents fearing that more bodies maybe found as crews continue to search the rubble from multiple missile attacks. cnn's dick paton walsh is on the ground for us in ukraine. nick, russia unleashing this new barrage just ahead unexpected ukrainian military counteroffensive. give us the latest. >> as is often the case, we simply don't know what russia thinks it was ai

it's just samuel alito. he obviously he didn't quite refer. he didn't refer to the court. i'm sure he was getting signals from his colleagues that this is what they needed to do. at this point. the reason it went to justice alito just so we make clear is that he is in charge of emergency petitions for the fifth circuit. it's the regional circuit that actually handled the lower court case, so it's this was frankly, this was the prudent thing to do. given how fast moving this was since last friday, when you know everything was upended with the district court's decision that suddenly as i said, you know, went against the fda validation, but you're exactly right that this is a whole different kind of case. that is, you know, is unprecedented in terms of the attack on the fda and a single judge. essentially putting himself in the shoes of the regulators to say. that he can he looking at studies and medical findings and scientific determinations that he can assess on his own the safety and effectiveness of myth of kristen and what the department of justice has said and the drug

i would expect that samuel alito might frankly dig in a little bit more and not want to defer to the fda s expertise. but i think that someone like kavanaugh might shift over. just think of what would happen the consequences here two things about the consequences, i think would be important to these justices. they would effectively be ensuring that even states that allow abortion were state legislatures have said. we want the women in our state to be able to end in an unwanted pregnancy. they couldn't get it early stages they wouldn't be able to through a key part of medication abortion, but the other thing that's happened and this goes to the first segment you had on here. just think of what these justices have observed in terms of the fallout from their ruling. they certainly seen a legal fallout, but they've also seen a political fallout and one of the reasons i used to predict that roe v. wade wouldn't be overturned is that i thought that some justices would be sensitive to what they were doing the way they were shattering the political landscape as well as the legal landscape. n

first of all, samuel alito is the justice responsible for emergency appeals from the fifth circuit. all the regional circuits are divided among the justices, just for this reason to be able to act quickly, and i actually did expect this kind of action. frankly it's very sensible. just think of what's happened over the last seven days since we first got that ruling from judge cause merica in texas. there's been so much confusion there have been conflicting rulings. there truly has been chaos in the idea of what would be available to women beginning tonight, which was when his order was going to take effect. so this just gives everyone a chance to pause. it's only five days, but it's a way for the justices themselves to take a serious look at the briefs and decide should they themselves here. orel arguments should they let this play out at the fifth circuit, which is already now scheduled its own set of oral arguments for me, 17th what should be the next course of action? of course with the department of justice would like is for the justices to make sure that these lower court ruling

conservative justice samuel alito. he oversees the fifth circuit, so the question is, if they do another short administrative stay, it's possible it could come from justice alito himself the question is, are more justices writing about this dissenting what's happening behind the scenes? that's something that's unclear, however, in past opinions, many of the conservative justices have talked about deference to the fda because of their scientific knowledge in things just like this and medication, so it's very possible that this court will still keep on hold all of these restrictions while it plays out at the lower courts, the big question might be. does the supreme court step in right away and decided to hear this case in the next few weeks, possibly issuing a decision on this broader case before july 1st. we'll see. we will see. we'll be looking for that. jessica schneider. thank you so much, jim much more ahead. no question. two teenagers arrested for a mass shooting at a sweet 16 party that you'll remember left four pe

. >> justice samuel alito told reporters of the "wall street journal" today that he believes he has a good idea of who leaked the dobbs decision overturning roe vs. wade last may, jeopardizing the legislativesy of the court. according to alito, who authored the decision, made him and fellow justices targets of assassination. we know that. they announced they were unable to find the leaker. jason, set the table for us. why don't we have somebody? >> we likely don't have someone right now because there didn't seem to be a rush to find the leaker. it benefited the democrats at the time. as you said, samuel alito tells the "wall street journal" i have a good idea who's responsible but that's different than naming somebody. their lives were threatened. he continued by saying those of us who were thought to be in the majority, thought to have approved my opinion, were targets of assassination. it was rational for people to believe they might be able to stop the decision in dobbs by killing one of us. of course, there was an assassination attempt or a plot that was thwarted. while we don't k

one of the justices, samuel alito thinks he knows who leaked the draft of the opinion roe v. wade and he thinks he knows who it is and he thinks was done to intimidate the justices of the supreme court to stop them from ruling as they eventually did. your thoughts on this? >> i think that justice alito's speculation and he says he doesn't have enough information to name the leaker, who he thinks it may be the leaker publicly and good that he showed caution in that respect, but the scenario that he outlined is very possible. if the intent, the leaker's intent was to intimidate and threaten and whip up public anger toward the conservative justices poised to overrule roe versus wade, the strategy seemed to work. the attempted assassination of justice kavanaugh and constant threats named at the conservative justices. if that's the leaker's motive, horrible, impermissible, it seems to have had an effect. >> and talk about this larger, as people focus on the politicalization of our legal system in many forms, the supreme court has opinion kind -- the supreme court has been kind of

conservative justices samuel alito and clarence thomas dissented saying they would've let the restrictions go into effect. the pharmaceutical industry relieved by the high court's decision. president biden saying i continue to stand by fda's evidence-based approval. the stakes could not be higher for women across america. the council for alliance defending freedom which filed a lawsuit challenging the fda approval responded in a statement saying we look forward to a final outcome in this case and we will hold the fda accountable. the federal judge sided with antiabortion activists saying it should have never been approved more than 20 years ago. legal experts say this case could have a much wider impact. >> if you could have a drug be approved and then have it pulled from the market, that is deeply problematic. if you are a pharmaceutical company you might think twice about investing money in research to develop drugs. elizabeth: oral arguments will begin on may 17 at the conservative fifth second court -- circuit court of appeals. that could ultimately send the case back to the supreme co

amy: so, michele goodwin, talk about samuel alito and his role. came under his jurisdiction by justice alito is well known as the man who is the author of the supreme court decision overturning roe v. wade. what it means he was the original person who extended this day and now has done it again? >> well, it is hard to read the tea leaves but you make an excellent point which is that justice alito authored the decision in jobs june 2022, just less than a year ago, that overturned roe v. wade and planned parenthood -- plan pair heavy kc. planned parenthood was a 1992 decision and row -- we're talking about decades of precedent that rendered virtually meaningless through the dobbs decision. it was worth noting the dobbs decision was a case that came out at the state at mississippi where there had only been one abortion clinic and in that state, if you are a black woman, you are 118 times more likely to die by carrying a pregnancy to term then by having an abortion. i justice alito's opinions must also be linked to the hobby lobby decision which is one

this, but we don't know which five justices all we know is justice clarence thomas and justice samuel alito . they dissented and alito was the only one to explain his vote . and he basically said that he did not think that patients would be so harmed. if these restrictions or left in place while the appeals process played out. he noted that the federal appeals court is going to hear arguments next may and he thought that the court shouldn't have acted this way. so now what happens is this whole issue goes back to this federal appeals court on what's called the merits. now they're going to dig into it. it's a very conservative court, so a lot of people feel like after that court rules. this case may end up back at the supreme court where the justices will really take a much more thorough look and dig into the issues. but for now, that drug is widely available on this is the same supreme court that overturned roe v. wade. last summer. so could we read into this? i mean, does this signal a change of heart on the core? you know, it's interesting what you say, because, of course, it was a leader

that decision didn't forecast how the justices are going to eventually ruled, but what justice samuel alito did is he put in place? what's called an administrative stay, and all that does is it frees the lower court opinion for now, basically , to give these justices time to get red in to read the briefs to catch up with all that has been going on, he said. that deadline now for wednesday, but no, it does not forecast how the justice these will eventually rule. it's just a temporary measure to give them a chance to catch their breath. and of course they're considering as you said this emergency petition from the biden ministrations from manufacturers of the drug who say look that lower court got it wrong. those restrictions should not remain in place if the lower court opinion is allowed to stand, for instance, uh, labeling will have to change to show that women can only access that drug up to seven weeks of pregnancy instead of 10 weeks that they will have to come in personally to have it administered in instead. of being able to get it by mail. so basically what that lower court opinion d
