Show Notes

In this episode of The Independent with Scott Atlas, Scott speaks with bestselling author and Senior Editor at The Federalist, Mollie Hemingway, about the lasting influence of Samuel Alito on the modern Supreme Court. The conversation explores Alito’s practical originalism, his commitment to constitutional limits, and how his background shaped his judicial philosophy. Hemingway explains why Alito has become one of the Court’s most consequential voices, the intense political pressure surrounding the Dobbs decision, and how his coalition-building approach differs from fellow originalists Scalia and Thomas while reshaping constitutional law and judicial restraint.
