Alito Taken to Hospital After Falling Ill at Federalist Society Dinner Last Month
Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was rushed to a hospital last month after a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, CNN reported.
Alito, who just turned 76, was treated for dehydration after he fell ill (food poisoning?).
Details about the medical emergency were not disclosed.
In the two weeks since the medical incident, Samuel Alito has been on the bench and has attended oral arguments.
“Out of an abundance of caution, he agreed with his security detail’s recommendation to see a physician before the three-hour drive home,” the Supreme Court said in a statement, The Hill reported.
“After that examination and the administration of fluids for dehydration, he returned home that night, as previously planned,” the high court said.
CNN reported:
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was taken to a hospital after becoming ill last month at a Federalist Society dinner in Philadelphia, according to people with knowledge of the March 20 incident.
The justice was evaluated and administered fluids for dehydration. He returned to his home in Virginia that night with his security team.
Alito and Supreme Court public information officials declined to comment for the record about the episode, which has not been previously reported.
In the two weeks since the incident, Alito has attended oral arguments and appeared healthy during the usual give-and-take with lawyers at the lectern.
Alito, who turned 76 on Wednesday and has served as a justice for 20 years, has become the subject of widespread speculation from commentators across the ideological spectrum and the news media over whether he might retire. (He has refused to answer journalists’ questions on the subject.)
Fox News also confirmed the Alito report.
Fox News reported:
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was treated for dehydration at a hospital after a previously undisclosed March 20 incident in Philadelphia, sources told Fox News.
He was not admitted and returned home the same night without complications.
Alito, 76, attended a Federalist Society dinner that evening and reported feeling lightheaded, prompting his security detail to recommend a precautionary hospital visit. Sources said the justice has had no issues since.

One Democratic House Victory in Nebraska Could Hand Republicans the Presidency — Here’s How
Democrats are targeting a key House pickup in Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District, but the outcome could increase the chances of a Republican winning the presidency in 2028.
RINO Congressman Don Bacon is not seeking reelection in November, creating an open race and a major opportunity for Democrats to pick up a tightly contested House seat.
The Democratic frontrunner, state Sen. John Cavanaugh, would be required to give up his seat in Nebraska’s unicameral legislature if elected to Congress.
His replacement would be appointed by the state’s Republican governor, Jim Pillen.
Republicans are currently one seat short of a filibuster-proof supermajority in the legislature.
Should they gain that additional seat, they would have the votes needed to advance legislation without Democratic support.
That could include changes to Nebraska’s congressional maps, potentially making the 2nd District more favorable to Republicans, as well as efforts to eliminate the state’s split Electoral College system.
Nebraska is one of two states that allocates electoral votes by congressional district.
The 2nd District has recently provided Democrats with a single electoral vote, including in the 2024 presidential election, when Kamala Harris carried the district.
In a closely contested national election, that single electoral vote could prove significant.
Without the split system, Nebraska would award all of its electoral votes to the statewide winner.
Democrats believe they can offset any loss by winning additional legislative seats in upcoming elections.
“We’re prepared that we might lose [Cavanaugh’s] seat. So that means we have to pick up a few more this cycle,” Nebraska Democratic Party chair Jane Kleeb told Politico.
In recent years, Democrats have successfully blocked efforts to redraw district boundaries and change how the state allocates its electoral votes.
If Republicans secure a supermajority, those constraints would be removed, allowing them to revisit those proposals ahead of the 2028 election cycle.
Meanwhile, the retirement of Don Bacon is no great loss to the Republican Party.
Last November, Bacon admitted he also resigned from Congress in protest of President Trump’s peace plan for Ukraine.
He denounced the proposal as the “Witkoff Ukrainian surrender plan,” referring to Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, who helped craft it.
However, he said that he intended to honor his “commitment to our constituents to fulfill my term.”
BREAKING: DON BACON, Nebraska Republican, will not seek releection.
JOE BIDEN and KAMALA HARRIS both won the Omaha based seat.
This will become a prime pickup opportunity for Democrats in 2026.
