Senators Richard J. Durbin and Sheldon Whitehouse have accused the Supreme Court of ethics violations and are calling for Justice Samuel Alito to recuse himself from certain cases. In response, Justice Alito has rejected these demands, describing them as attempts to manipulate Supreme Court cases through unfounded recusal demands and dishonest attacks.
