NPR journalist Nina Totenberg published an article on Tuesday claiming that Supreme Court JusticeSamuel Alito was retiringwhich had to be denied by the court itself.
“Justice Samuel Alito, who wrote the Supreme Court opinion that overturned the Roe v. Wade decision, is retiring, according to the court's announcement this Tuesday,” Totenberg wrote, who is part of the United States public broadcasting service (NPR), a hub that has been occupied by far-left activists over the years and which Trump has already announced will need to seek private funding if it wants to continue operating.
The article, which was archived on the Internet, was removed 10 minutes after being published and replaced by a note from the general management. The newsroom had to issue a statement saying that the note had been published by mistake and that Alito had not announced his retirement from the Court.

The Court's statement
Even the Supreme Court itself had to come out to refute NPR's claims. "NPR's report on Justice Alito is inaccurate. And its assertion that there was any kind of statement from the court is also inaccurate,” declared the court's spokesperson, Patricia McCabe.
Coincidentally, Totenberg's fake newswas published minutes after the Supreme Court issued its latest rulings for the 2025-2026 session period, including two of the most important cases regarding birthright citizenship and transgender athletes.
Justice Alito is one of the most conservative jurists on the Court and was the author of the historic 2022 opinion that overturned the Roe v. Wade case. In the ruling, Alito argued that the 1973 decision protecting the right to abortion was "egregiously wrong from the start" and returned the authority to legislate on abortion to each state.
