'Not Good Judgment': GOP Senators Ding Samuel Alito Over Upside-Down Flag
LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON ― Republican senators criticized Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito over the flying of an upside-down American flag at his house following the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol building. The upside-down flag became a symbol of the “Stop the Steal” movement following Trump’s 2020 presidential election loss and was displayed by some of his supporters who clung to baseless election conspiracy theories. Sen. Mike Rounds found the flying of an upside-down flag at a Supreme Court justice’s home to be “weird.” “First of all, why would you allow it in the first place?” Rounds said. That the news about the flag broke as the justices considered Trump’s claims for absolute immunity for his Jan. 6 election subversion case only underscored the need for Congress to get involved and pass legislation requiring ethics reform on the Supreme Court, Sen. Richard Blumenthal said Monday.
