    They are so used to getting away with things, that they don't care how ludicrous their lies sound.
  • @kathylgoedert
    It just never ends. Unbelievable depth of corruption.
  • @twintwin3375
    Alito is such a COWARD by blaming it on his wife.
  • @undertow2142
    Did you need another reason to vote this November. Put the dems in office and these traitors can face accountability.
  • If I were Mrs. Alito, I would sue him for slander and then divorce.
  • @HeckleCat
    So the Alitos figured they would hang something even more vile than whatever their neighbor did.
  • @ghostface_7
    Lifetime appointments and zero accountability for the SC, how could that possibly go wrong
  • @doughughes5732
    Alito and Thomas are as crooked as they get. So much for unbiased and impartial.
  • @Erikajp
    You can't ask the public to respect the institution when the justices themselves don't respect it.
  • @DGUTUBE
    What a coward. SCOTUS' needs rules
  • @kriannnne
    Of course he'd blame his wife. He's basically like what's Women's Rights anyway? Him and Thomas needs to go.
  • Not surprising for Alito to blame his wife after he helped remove women of one of their rights. The majority of this SCOTUS is corrupt to the core.
  • @thjbird
    To be fair to Alito, his Confederate flag was at the cleaners.
  • What strikes me is how childish the explanation is.- my wife did it?? Cause she was mad at the neighbor? This man is not fit to hold public office.
  • @PKing-px5dg
    Now we know why the Supreme Court didn't invoke the 14th Amendment, they would have to remove some Supreme Judges if they did!
  • @Sonofspam64
    Great, that makes two justices who are crazed conspiracy theorists who reject facts to embrace feelings and opinions. This court must absolutely be dealt with.
