Justice Alito's Ominous Warning About Democrats Threatening to 'Restructure' the Supreme Court

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito issued a chilling warning about Democrats’ threats to “restructure” the Court in his keynote speech for a Federalist Society meeting on Thursday. Alito referred to an astonishing brief five Democratic senators — Sheldon Whitehouse, Mazie Hirono, Richard Blumenthal, Richard Durbin, and Kirsten Gillibrand — filed in a Second Amendment case last year. The senators wrote that the Court “is not well,” and warned that the public might demand it be “restructured in order to reduce the influence of politics.”
