Justice Samuel Alito has been recorded in a secret audio revealing his views on the ideological battle in America. In the recording, Alito states that fundamental differences in American society 'can’t be compromised' and expresses a desire to return the country to a place of godliness. The recording, captured by journalist Lauren Windsor, has sparked controversy, with some viewing Alito's comments as inappropriate for a Supreme Court Justice. Alito's remarks have been compared to his dissent in the Obergefell case, where he similarly expressed strong conservative views. The recording has led to a polarized reaction, with critics arguing that Alito's comments reflect a lack of impartiality, while supporters claim the remarks are consistent with his known conservative stance. Alito also mentioned that 'one side or the other is going to win' and acknowledged the limits of his power. The story was first reported as a Rolling Stone exclusive.
