If you’ve read about Project 2025 you know that “banana republic” is what the GOP hopes for the US. Grift, corruption, a partisan government…

And dirty judges. Like Sammy here.

Oh, I am fully aware. The tragic thing is that MAGA thinks they will be spared.

Idiots. If they were literate I’d suggest they read what happens under authoritarian regimes.

He flew the Appeal to Heaven for almost the entirety of summer 2023. This flag was also prominently displayed on January 6.

He needs to go. He’s supposed to be impartial but he clearly has his own agenda.

What you going to do about it? There is no democrat demanding Alito’s removal. The dems have no will. This is all it takes for democracy to fall. Inaction.

Journalists need to put a floodlight on this.

Hmmm..... did they put a floodlight on these?

Tweets and an opinion from a political consultant? That’s not investigative journalism, son.

This political consultant, the guy in the middle.

He’s even polluting LBI with his corruption.



Truly a traitorous POS. Just like everyone enabling him to stay on the bench.

What’s this appeal to heaven thing? I think that the most concerning part of this is that it shows Alito is very far down the qanon rnwj online conspiracy rabbit hole. He could show up to comet ping pong looking for pedophiles.

Abstracted from the NYT:

“Last summer, two years after an upside-down American flag was flown outside the Virginia home of Justice Samuel Alito, another provocative symbol was displayed at his vacation house in New Jersey,” the New York Times reports.

“This time, it was the ‘Appeal to Heaven’ flag, which, like the inverted U.S. flag, was carried by rioters at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Also known as the Pine Tree flag, it dates back to the Revolutionary War, but largely fell into obscurity until recent years and is now a symbol of support for former President Donald Trump, for a religious strand of the ‘Stop the Steal’ campaign and for a push to remake American government in Christian terms.”

“Three photographs obtained by The New York Times, along with accounts from a half-dozen neighbors and passers-by, show that the Appeal to Heaven flag was aloft at the Alito home on Long Beach Island in July and September of 2023. A Google street view image from late August also shows the flag.”

Let's look at more information without the NY Times spin. This from Wiki:

Modern usage
In the 2010s, the flag became appropriated as a religious and political symbol by some conservative, nationalist, and Christian nationalist activists within the United States.[12] In 2013, the flag was seen at a Million Vet March where it flew behind Sarah Palin in photographs. At the time, commentator Andrew Sullivan discussed the relevance of the flag's appearance, focusing on the connections between the historical message of the flag and its modern usage by political conservatives.[13] In 2015, the Freedom From Religion Foundation demanded the flag's removal from a county courthouse in Arkansas.[14] Also in 2015, the Appeal to Heaven flag and slogan were adopted by a conservative religious movement using the same name.[15] In 2019, Illinois State Representative Chris Miller made a public appearance with the flag to "help focus attention" on a National Day of Prayer.[16]
In 2021, some Trump supporters carried the flag during the January 6 United States Capitol attack.[17] In 2023, Supreme Court justice Samuel Alito flew the flag at his New Jersey vacation home.[18]. Also in 2023, Mike Johnson (R LA), newly elected Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, hung the flag outside his Congressional office.

You’re citing Wikipedia instead of context from a historian and relevant photos.

Yes - to show that this flag has been around for a while and flown by Christians for many reasons.
Some of you are getting dumber every day.
More proof that conspiracy theories are not exclusive to the right. But, we knew that. You folks are proving it every day.

Did you see the recent reasons though

Yes. And the Nazi swastika once had a different cultural meaning.

Your spin is not working.

Justice Ginsburg noted in 2016 that Trump was sort of a fraudster and the Right went nuts and she quickly issued an apology saying she’d be more careful. Alito hasn’t even admitted this is bad and will die before he apologizes.

Captain Courage will blame it on his wife (which still isn’t an excuse)

Oh I guess one of their neighbors in NJ called Mrs. Alito the c word?

Neighbor wasn’t wrong. The alitos are both c words.

This guy refers to justice Thomas as the greatest Supreme Court Justice. That tells me all that I need to know about him.

That’s hilarious.

And shame on Roberts for letting this happen.

Shame on Roberts for heading up a court of right wing jokes. He’s been silent on this, no? So in a few weeks we’ll get to hear about a speech he gave for some right wing high rollers in which he whines that people have noticed the right wingers on the court suck.

Why, why, why are Alito and Thomas allowed to remain on the Supreme Court!?

They're both corrupt (and Alito traitorous), but Roberts is apparently okay with it. He probably doesn't know what move to make here.
