Alito

The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution

De: Mollie Hemingway

Narrado por: Mollie Hemingway

From an award-winning journalist, the authoritative—and explosive—inside story of Justice Samuel Alito and his powerful role in shaping the Supreme Court.

Justice Samuel Alito, the unflinching author of the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, is so influential that many now refer to the “Alito Court.” But his powerful role, long overlooked, has aroused the ire of activists outraged by the emergence of a cohesive conservative majority on the court.

In this first comprehensive study of Alito, Mollie Hemingway explains how his common sense and prosecutorial experience, combined with fearless intellectual rigor, have shaped the man and the jurist. Through the lens of Alito’s judicial career, Hemingway provides a fresh perspective on the political, social, and legal battles that have unsettled the Supreme Court and the nation.

From menacing mobs encamped outside the justices’ homes to senators bellowing violent threats on the steps of the court itself, Alito offers a captivating insider account of the Supreme Court under unprecedented attack in a polarized age.

Few would have predicted that the modest and reserved judge who joined the high court with little fanfare two decades ago would lead the originalists to their astonishing ascendancy, but Hemingway’s compelling portrait reveals an intellect and character that make such leadership seem inevitable.

Outstanding Book!

I learned so much from this! The author writes in an engaging and compelling manner that make the book fun to listen to. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Stories

Fantastic listen. The stories were so good I didn’t want the book to end. I have gained even more respect for Justice Alito

Mollie does it again. She is awesome.

Each one of her books is incredibly timely and well researched. Legacy media won’t provide objective, well researched insight into the background and human side of justices and other public servants who are conservative. Before this book, I knew very little about this quiet, brilliant Supreme Court justice. Thank you, Mollie.

Thorough

Loved it and would recommend to everyone! Easy to understand! Research and analysis is very thorough!

Oustanding Book and Superbly Written

I think I have read all of her books (and they have all been excellent), but this one takes the cake! I simply could not put it down, which is a plaudit I rarely express toward nonfinction.
