Summary
Justice Samuel Alito, a self-described Originalist, has been criticized for allegedly disregarding the Constitutionās text when it conflicts with his personal views.
Recently, it emerged that Alito accepted a knighthood from a European order, despite the Constitutionās ban on foreign titles for U.S. officials.
This title, from the House of BourbonāTwo Sicilies, raises questions about Alitoās commitment to American democratic ideals, which the Framers aimed to protect from foreign influence.
Critics argue that Alitoās actions reflect hypocrisy in his supposed adherence to Originalism and constitutional principles.
The key point here is that it is grounds for impeachment by.
Or even just starting the proceedings. Their counter argument would have to be so detached from reality and would undermine the decades theyāve been forcing originalism down our throats.
