Samuel Alito does not deserved to be called a “justice.” Nothing he does has any relation to fair and equitable treatment of people, regardless of their class or standing. Call him what he is - a religious zealot intent on imposing theocratic rule.

Something is off here. There has been no confirmation the Secret Service was by her table when a man who sure sounds like a professional thief—or spy—took valuable, national security-implicating items from her. And there is no statement about who she was with. And she is rumored to be in an affair.
