Four Supreme Court justices who voted to strike down Roe v. Wade joined the Federalist Society Thursday night as the conservative legal group celebrated its 40th anniversary and resoundingly applauded the high court’s June decision

. Justice Samuel Alito, who penned the court’s majority decision that overturned Roe, did not directly address the ruling during his remarks at the black-tie dinner in Washington, DC. But he received a standing ovation from the audience when former Michigan Supreme Court Chief Justice Stephen Markman invoked the decision. “You know, I’ve heard it said by some in recent months that the Dobbs decision will be forever an indelible part of Justice Alito’s legacy,” Markman said.

For his part, McConnell, when he was the Senate majority leader, was a crucial partner to the Federalist Society in choosing judicial candidates and getting them confirmed, particularly during the Trump administration. Alito spoke fondly of the legal group during Thursday’s dinner, remembering time spent having meals with the Federalist Society’s DC chapter at a Chinese restaurant in the city. He brought with him a fortune cookie he said he kept from that very restaurant.

They had to be there. It was payday.

This is how CNN and the foolish liberal media addresses them yet when the same 4 Supreme Court justices overrule Trump they suddenly became your friends and no longer addressed as the 4 that struck down Roe v Wade. Who is Roe and who is Wade? Are they important than America?

Gazpacho agents, all four of them.

They are supposed to be Chief Justices, NOT celebrities. They are all an absolute disgrace to the American Judiciary System.

Well that feels…gross for some reason…

And all four of them should be thrown off the court. This is no longer a court. It's a bought-and-paid for corrupt sham. These people aren't being impartial, fair purveyors of justice. They're acting downright criminal and making returns on the society's 1 bil investment.

sic em kids!!!!!! Your body your choice!!

Fascists like to gather at black tie events on occasion

Woe! Conflict much?

Great job! THANK YOU Supreme Court! Thank you for choosing life. Pro life forever, never pro-death like these immoral, vile and hateful baby killing liberals. They even voted to let babies die AFTER being born. These pro-death liberals are straight from hell. Soon, straight back!

Yawn. Kagen and Soto Mayor I’m sure support liberal institutions. Also our entire government bureaucracy in DC votes 96% democrat and they bring that to work with them everyday. So no, we don’t care about this.

not so 'Supreme' after all

There is something inherently wrong about SCOTUS Justices being applauded.

This is why the Court can't be seen as apolitical. They go to these events, right these completely partisan opinions, then they stand up and say 'The Court should not be viewed in a political light.'

Ah, shit. Here come the prerequisite “this is a danger to democracy” takes.

Not shocked 😑

And I say God Bless those four! Worthy of being called Supremes…..

They must have shown up for payday.

Meanwhile China’s govt is donating to politicians in Canada, who in turn increased immigration to all time highs. China is playing the long game and buying natural resources for their future. And the USA is making their population dumb and controlled. This won’t end well.

Term limits and age restrictions for all branches

Impartial? I don’t think so. The Supreme Court has become so ridiculous.

And Now, the State has the control to set laws about abortion. Hurray for these SCOTUS who handoff the control of Roe v Wade to their own state legislature!

devancole1 demonizes the Federalist Society and doesn't understand what Conservatism is. That said, attacking the SC over the righteous decision to hand Roe BACK to the USCongress is par for the course in left wing reporting. Congress must definelifeinthewomb!

Liars and cheaters

Amerika

Roberts has the nerve to wonder why people believe the court is corrupt is a hack, it’s their actions. Supreme court of the United States of America is nothing more than a conservative hack job. The bought off by the federalists

All the people on here claiming these judges are sexist and racist need to realize that SCOTUS could’ve found abortion unconstitutional entirely when Dobbs was decided but they didn’t. They basically found abortion to be constitutional if legislated at the state level.

What the actual.... this was a very orchestrated plan.

But it cost them an election. Smart.

criticalthawt Oh my god…POTUS had the chance to increase the size of the court. I am so angry over this…I don’t know if I could vote for Joe again…

A rendezvous celebration at the mothership

Activist judges

Need term limits on Supreme court

The Supreme Court is a joke!

This makes me sick to my stomach

Is citizens have taxation without representation in Washington

Just another reason why the court needs to be destroyed or re-shaped. This is an abomination. The Federalist Society is a criminal organization just like the GOP. They're one in the same.

Our Supreme Court doesn't look impartial to a lot of Americans.

Bless those incredible life warriors

let’s be honest, if it were men who could become pregnant, abortion clinics would be ubiquitous throughout society

Disaster!!!! DISASTER......

Some of you need to read the ACTUAL Constitution or he’ll even a pre 90s US History book and stop listening to the propaganda of a political party

Omg 😡😡🤬 Federalist society = white nationalist neo-Nazis!!! How is this even happening?!!!! Where are we?!! Wtaf 😡🤬🤬🤬

They have no business whatsoever being there. SCOTUS is corrupt and needs to be purged.

I prefer Supreme Court Justices who don’t take victory laps.

, please learn from Uganda's President:

JJohnsonLaw 🤮🤮🤮

Where’s a volcano eruption when you need one 😒

Clowns

Then they go around the country giving speeches and wonder why folks think the court has become political

Awesome

But I thought the Supreme Court was not full of Christi-fascist political hacks.

AntiAbortionAHoles WingNutWankers AbortTheCourt

THANK GOD FOR OUR JUSTICES.

Totally detestable. They have disgraced our constitution and everything it stands for.

OMG...they have an opinion.. HORRIBLE

Why does Justice Alito look like a vegetable capable of sexual assault?

What the actual? How is this not bigger news? Trumps main concern was judicial appointments because he understands the value of owning the courts.
