32:49Now PlayingPeter Canellos, the author of a new book about Supreme Court Justice Sam Alito, joins Lisa Graves of Court Accountability Action to discuss how the right-wing legal movement captured the Supreme Court and the law. They discuss Alito's role in the Reagan administration and how his assurances during the hearings on his nomination to the Supreme Court diverge dramatically from his actions and words on the Roberts Court. They also discuss abortion, religious freedom, gay rights, guns, and John Roberts' counter-constitutional invention of immunity from criminal prosecution for Donald Trump.
