A secret recording of Martha Alito, wife of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, discussing a flag controversy has emerged, causing a stir in political circles. The recording was made by Lauren Windsor, a liberal documentary filmmaker who posed as a religious conservative during separate conversations with both Martha and Samuel Alito.
CNN reports that it has not obtained the full audio and has reached out to the Supreme Court for comment. Meanwhile, Rolling Stone has secured the recording, adding to the controversy surrounding the Alitos.
Former New Jersey Governor Christine Todd Whitman has expressed regret over her past support for Justice Alito in light of the newly surfaced recording. Whitman discussed her changed perspective in an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett, reflecting the broader political implications of the incident.
The emergence of this recording has sparked debates about the ethics of secret recordings and the potential impact on public trust in judicial figures. The Alitos have yet to publicly respond to the revelations, leaving the situation developing as media outlets and the public await further details.
