judicial
Still SeatedSamuel Alito is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States and a central figure in the Court’s conservative majority. He is widely associated with major rulings on abortion, religion, executive power, and the broader rightward shift of the Court. The legal résumé is formidable; the public image is a little more “smug uncle with lifetime tenure,” especially once ethics questions and those flag controversies started making the neutral-arbiter routine harder to sell. On Yeeted or Seated, Alito is the kind of justice who writes opinions like he has been waiting years to win an argument and does not care who hates the result.
