BROWNSVILLE, Texas |...A tall flagpole outside his home, a hard-to-miss, pretty large American flag flapping in the Virginia breeze, flying upside down - that sure outward sign of anger, unrest or just plain hate.
U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Samuel Alito cannot talk fast enough to try and get that shit off his face and back. Activist judge? No question about it.
Time to get him off the highest court in the land.
This from salon.com: [ When Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was caught raising an upside-down American flag outside his Virginia home, the conservative jurist found a woman to blame: his wife. It was she who decided to wave the chosen banner of election deniers in the wake of the January 6 insurrection, he said, after she became righteously furious at an allegedly profane display of anti-Trump sentiment in her neighborhood. Alito, innocent, just happened to live there - with no input on the seditious décor.
Everything about this is normal, okay? ]
No, it's not. It's a damned assault on a symbol of the entire country. I know, you can burn the flag and you can stomp it and drag it through the mud, if you like. It's just a rag, more symbolic than anything else.
But it does represent the nation.
Willfully flying it upside down says something. Max Moron can do it, and few will care. But when a Supreme Court justice does it, well, that's something altogether else.
Alito's lame response has been woeful, more the words of a henpecked husband than a ranking member of the Supreme Court. Blaming the wife is something that side of shitty and weak. Man up, MOFO!!!
Maybe it's time for Congress to do something about this Republican Clown, eh?
Send him packing today, I'd say...Go home, dude. Go and get those dishes done before suppertime, as ordered by your un-American wife...

This dude has to go.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is the Supreme Court thinks they answer to no one and are above review of their actions. The court has always relied on the integrity of its members but that has long gone away with the extremist on the conservative side who think things like their religious beliefs supersede the laws.
ReplyDeleteTrump tells crowd at Bronx rally that Mexico border wall was three weeks from completion. LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Bronx, full of immigrants, is totally Democratic. Trump wasted his time. fact.
DeleteThe Mayra Watch:...She hung out with San Juan P.D. people yesterday. No word on where she ate.
ReplyDeleteHer dumb campaign consists of driving around like a fool and thinking she's somebody. If only!!!
DeleteMayra is no Republican. She wants to be one, but they'd never invite her to dinner at their home. Sad.
DeleteDist. 15 Republican Monica De la Cruz is another lost Mexican. Mexico, recoge tu gente!!
DeleteMayra, get a job and pay taxes!! You're freeloading off campaign donations. Soooooo-oh Mexico!!!
DeleteEcho that.
DeleteMayra Flores will lose bigly this time, too!!!
DeleteWhat's Mayra's weight up to now? ja ja ja ja
DeleteShe's looking heavy..........
DeleteMayra didn't eat out today - a first!!!!
DeleteLawmakers Dial Up Pressure on Alito to Recuse From Elections Cases
ReplyDeleteWe’re in desperate need of a new political system. The Republicans have zero accountability and every time they do something and get caught it’s because the Democrats are against them. Alito should know better. He’s on the Supreme Court and isn’t supposed to be partisan to either party. This is what happens when you hand out power with no accountability or consequences attached.
ReplyDeleteIf you cannot be politically neutral, you should not be on the Supreme Court. They really need term limits or stack the court to make it even
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget about Uncle Tom Clarence Thomas....He needs to Recuse himself too. Today!
ReplyDeleteTrue that.
DeleteSTOP CODDLING SCOTUS and bring in the FBI/DOJ to do their jobs!!! Subpoenas, charges, whatever
ReplyDeleteTrump's hush money trial is about to go to the jury. What's the most likely verdict?
ReplyDeleteGUILTY AS CHARGED!!!!!!!
DeleteLifetime judge?...what a disgrace this judge Alito is. Consider him a traitor. Congress get busy & do something about this!

ReplyDeleteRepublican Nikki Haley dove into the Trump cesspool willingly. Disappointing.
ReplyDeleteheadfirst, mouth wide open....
DeleteRepublican Sen. Susan Collins (Maine) wasn’t aware of the report of the “Appeal to Heaven” flag at Alito’s beach house but said flying an upside-down American flag is not appropriate.
ReplyDelete“I’m not an expert in judicial ethics, but it strikes me as unwise for the upside-down American flag to be flown at his house,” she said.
It's almost like Alito's daring the people to do something... I say any of them willing to do things like this in the public eye should be booted off the court permanently. They are supposed to be above this, not mocking us.
ReplyDeleteJustice Roberts, get your court in order. The legacy you are all leaving is horrific, history will condemn you. Follow the ethics and laws you claim to support.

ReplyDeleteI take it Republicans are okay with Alito flying the flag upside down. Of course.
