Quote of the Day
“Philip Alito, the son of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, quietly landed a job in the Treasury’s Office of the General Counsel at the start of Trump’s second term. On the Treasury Department website, it’s as if Philip doesn’t exist, and he does not have a LinkedIn or a public résumé. One former official said “he’d just say, ‘Phil,’ not ‘Phil Alito’” when he introduced himself. The arrangement could present a host of conflict-of-interest issues. Justice Alito did not recuse himself from reviewing a lawsuit against the Treasury challenging Trump’s use of emergency powers to issue tariffs, and court documents made no mention of his son’s job. And legal challenges against the Treasury-managed $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund could make its way to the Supreme Court soon.”
