All About Alito (ft. Mollie Hemingway)

<p>This week on Moment of Truth, Nick sits down with Mollie Hemingway, editor-in-chief of The Federalist and author of the new biography Alito: The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution, for a deep dive into the most consequential yet least understood justice on the Supreme Court. </p><br /><p>Mollie makes the case that Samuel Alito is not just the author of the biggest conservative legal victory in fifty years, but also the clearest model for how to balance principle and pragmatism in a movement that tends to choose only one. They cover originalism and how Alito's brand of it differs from Scalia and Thomas, the inside story of how Dobbs actually came together, the unprecedented leak that triggered assassination threats against the justices, the smear campaigns from Bork to Kavanaugh, and why the lower federal courts — not the Supreme Court — are the real crisis facing the rule of law right now. </p><br /><p>Follow Mollie: <a href="https://x.com/MZHemingway" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/MZHemingway </a></p><br /><p>Get the book: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Alito-Justice-Reshaped-Restored-Constitution/dp/1541607139" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/Alito-Justice-Reshaped-Restored-Constitution/dp/1541607139</a> </p><br /><p>Follow American Moment across Social Media:</p><p>X / Twitter – <a href="https://x.com/americanmoment" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/americanmoment</a></p><p>Facebook – <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AmMomentOrg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/AmMomentOrg</a></p><p>Instagram – <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ammomentorg/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/ammomentorg/</a></p><p>YouTube – <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4qmB5DeiFxt53ZPZiW4Tcg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4qmB5DeiFxt53ZPZiW4Tcg</a></p><br /><p>American Moment's "Moment of Truth" Podcast is recorded at the Conservative Partnership Campus in Washington DC, produced by American Moment Studios, and edited by Hunter Smith, with original graphics by <a href="https://jaredcummingsllc.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jared Cummings.</a></p><br /><p>Subscribe to our Podcast, "Moment of Truth"</p><p>Apple Podcasts – <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moment-of-truth/id1555257529" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moment-of-truth/id1555257529</a></p><p>Spotify – <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5ATl0x7nKDX0vVoGrGNhAj" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/5ATl0x7nKDX0vVoGrGNhAj</a></p><br /><p><br /></p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
