Original Note:
A former Alito clerk sought a Trump admin. job reference as allowed by ethics rules. OP implies Trump called to influence Alito, who said “We did not discuss the emergency application he filed” & Alito didn’t even know about the upcoming filing during the call. https://www.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/guide-vol02b-ch02_1.pdf https://thefederalist.com/2025/01/09/medias-latest-alito-conspiracy-theory-is-particularly-ridiculous/ https://x.com/profmjcleveland/status/1877220085204504864?s=46
