When Alito gives a speech Thursday at Notre Dame on the Supreme Court's shadow docket, there will be no livestream or recording. I've confirmed with Notre Dame officials that it was Alito who requested those restrictions.

(To be clear, members of the press can attend in person.)

US Supreme Court Associate Justice Samuel Anthony Alito, Jr. will speak Thursday at the Notre Dame Law School on "The Emergency Docket", presented by Kellogg's Constitutionalism and Rule of Law (CAROL) Lab, with cosponsorship by the ND Law School. More at https://buff.ly/39Mwzf4

I wonder if Sammy doesn't want any pesky questions about a certain emergency docket request on January 6th, 2021 being on a record anywhere.

1. Alito is a fucking coward

2. He probably doesn't want any photos either

That "All The Way With Opus Dei" sweatshirt probably wouldn't look good on page one of the New York Times.

3. A university should not be agreeing to communications held in the dark.

6. The press is allowed, so it's not in the dark.

8. Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of Alito?

9. Will his crying wife be behind him?

10. Alito was the snitch

in the dorms who went to the RA and reported on the kids smoking weed.

11. Obama should sit in the audience shaking his

head.

13. LOL.

That would be awesome!

Maybe that's why he doesn't want it videotaped - too easy to turn it into something hilarious ...

12. Alito renders decisions based on his personal political beliefs.

He will twist the law into a pretzel if he needs to.
