From the initial graphs of Kirk Swearingen's article, "An Appeal To Heaven: Find Sam Alito Another Job," in Salon.com:
"So in addition to the upside-down American flag displayed at his Virginia home, first reported by the New York Times, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito had that “Appeal to Heaven” flag aloft at his beach house on the New Jersey shore.
He blamed his wife for the first instance, but initially declined to comment about the second — before blaming his wife again. Didn’t Alito have someone else minding that house — a caretaker, or a cleaner — whom he could convince to take the fall?
On the other hand, why are we surprised? The Supreme Court’s so-called conservative justices have variously been vetted, feted and cosseted by the Federalist Society, along with other well-heeled enablers, to encourage unstinting partisanship. Alito should recuse himself from any cases involving insurrection and Donald Trump, but has already said he will not. True to form, he is aggrieved and defiant, rather than diplomatic or statesmanlike.
We know Alito’s insurrectionist flags are still aloft in his ever aggrieved mind, while also flapping wildly in the sullen gusts of wind inside Justice Clarence Thomas’ head." (our emphasis)
As we await the intentionally slow-walked Supreme Court decision on whether the Malignant Loser is above the law and immune from prosecution for inciting an insurrection to overthrow the 2020 election and more, we can imagine how the vote will break down along fascist / grifter / cynic lines, and will almost certainly include one or more opinions from the Alito - Thomas tandem, who ridiculously claim to be "strict constructionists," favoring the Malignant Loser's outrageous claim. The article goes into the history of this radical judicial corruption, and is a great read.
