Speaking in Rome at a religious liberty summit, Samuel Alito, 72, spent only a couple of minutes on the subject of abortion, and then only to discuss his foreign critics — an unusual step for a high court justice.
French President Emmanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also drew Alito's attention in the talk he gave in Rome on July 21 at the invitation-only event. The law school posted the video this week. Alito was not identified in advance as a speaker at the conference.
“His tone can be quite dismissive and scathing. It's as if he simply doesn't care that there are tens of millions of people in this country and abroad who disagree with him profoundly,” he said. “I think the most important thing is that this is not how our justices are supposed to behave.” "I'm an activist, and whenever I'm given a platform to share my activism work or support people in my community, I'm going to do just that. So honestly, Matt Gaetz has gifted me a national platform on a silver platter," says Olivia Julianna of Gen Z For Change. The 19-year-old activist joined LX News host Tabitha Lipkin to discuss her viral fundraiser launched after the Florida Congressman insulted her online.
The speech comes amid a sharp increase in the portion of Americans who say their confidence in the Supreme Court is eroding. A poll from The Associated Press -NORC Center for Public Affairs Research this week found 43% of Americans have “hardly any confidence” in the court, up from just 27% percent three months ago.
