Samuel Alito was again absent from the Supreme Court on Friday after skipping out on Thursday. No information has yet been provided by the court for Alito’s mysterious absence, which comes as the court is issuing decisions before the end of its term and leaves nothing but questions on his whereabouts.
Is he combating a hangover from a particularly raucous flag day with Martha-Ann? Is he ducking out to delay the decision on Trump’s presidential immunity case?
Alito’s absence poses the possibility that the Supreme Court will have to extend its term into July to complete its decisions for the term. One major case waiting in the wings is a decision on presidential immunity, which will decide if former presidents can extend immunity protections after they leave office—a determination that would greatly benefit Trump in his federal election interference case, currently still on hold.
To paraphrase Clarence Darrow, I would never wish a man dead, but there are some obituaries that I very much look forward to reading.
This, but I do wish this guy dead. Fuck him.
Death by bone cancer
Porque no los dos?
Sounds like he is working on a way to delay the decision of whether Trump is a king.
I wish Alito dead. The rest of the conservatives too.
Boy if Biden gets to appoint a Supreme Court Justice in the next few months, I wonder what backflips the GOP would do to condemn it.
I am like 80% sure Sinema or Manchin would wring their hands saying we cant do that and stop the whole process.
They’re 100% for sale, even more-so when they’re retiring, and plenty of billionaires are 100% willing to pay. I bet they’ll land a real nice deal.
TIHI.
they blocked obamas for over a year and we are like less than 6 months from an election
Oh, dear. I sincerely hope it’s nothing minor.
Probably at a Nazi rally
I know nazing
I did not see that coming!
It’s hard to assume it is for good intentions when he has exposed himself for what he is. I don’t want to hear about another SCOTUS justice complaining about the media when they practically generate the controversial stories without even a prompt.
This is a song called we hate you please die
Is he ducking out to delay the decision on Trump’s presidential immunity case?
Fuck that! If he’s absent, the Court should simply be required to decide the case without him.
The OBVIOUS solution is to pay him MORE MONEY so he shows up!
-Fiscally Responsible Republicans wanting to Defund Education!
He’s blowing a Hitler clone in his hamptons place
he died
We could only wish
“Laying low.”
