Alito Spoke With Trump Shortly Before Supreme Court Filing
The justice said that the call was a job reference for one of his former clerks and that the request to stay the president-elect’s sentencing did not come up.
In its never-ending campaign to slander Trump and the Supreme Court, the NYT breathlessly announces this blockbuster story about a routine phone call between Our Beloved President (elect) and a superior Supreme Court Justice.
Aside from the utter un-newsworthiness of the article, two things bear noting. First, the Court is not embattled; it has merely been subjected to a couple of baseless attacks, and Second, they are not going to quash this "hush money" case at this stage of the proceedings, so it's all about nothing anyway. It won't be until later, when the Court can deal with the substance of this non-case, that they will violently and emphatically overturn it, probably recommending that the New York Bar take action against both the prosecutor and the judge.
