SNOWFLAKE SAM’S ATTEMPT AT DAMAGE CONTROL CONFIRMS HIS GUILT

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (May 17, 2024) – In case you missed it: This morning, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito ran to Fox News to attempt to explain and downplay last night’s bombshell revelation that an upside-down flag (a “Stop the Steal” emblem) was flying at his home at the same time he was presiding over cases related to the 2020 election. In addition to blaming his wife, Alito failed to deny that the flag was displayed at his home — and effectively confirmed his awareness of it as an emblem of the same election denial efforts that fueled the deadly Capitol riot on January 6th.

“The justices like to keep all their alleged self-policing and accountability very hush hush. But unless there’s a ‘my neighbor was rude to us’ loophole I missed, this is a cut and dried example of judicial misconduct,” said Sarah Lipton-Lubet, president of Take Back the Court Action Fund. “If Alito is so triggered by a yard sign that he can’t exercise basic judgment, he has no business sitting on the nation’s highest court. At this point, even Alito recusing from Trump’s immunity case wouldn’t be enough. Congress needs to immediately investigate the worsening pattern of corruption that has rotted the high court to its core.”
