Mollie Hemingway has written a new book titled "Alito: The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution."
Evidence and Verdict
For
USA Today reports that conservative author Mollie Hemingway writes in “Alito: The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution.” The article cites content from that book (for example, Hemingway’s account of Alito telling Chief Justice Roberts about the flag opinion), indicating Hemingway is the author of the work with that title.
Against
Among the other provided sources, none independently confirm Hemingway’s authorship or the book’s publication details, so corroboration within the allowed source set is limited. Separate entries in the source list note that Samuel Alito himself will release a book (CNN), which could cause confusion about authorship if not distinguished from a separate biography or profile by Hemingway.
Verdict
USA Today explicitly names Mollie Hemingway as the author of a book with the stated title, which supports the claim; however, independent corroboration among the other provided sources is limited, so the conclusion is rated TRUE with moderate-high confidence.
