Why Was Alito Flying the Flag Upside Down After January 6?

44 comments

1. Because he’s a partisan hack?

2. Because he’s a traitor.

3. To show his allegiance to his handlers. Oh, it wasn’t him though, he blamed his wife. What a guy.

4. Because Mrs. Alito has autonomy over her own person and the decisions she makes, regardless of her husband or the rest of the state, the church or anyone else. /s

5. He was signaling his support for the ones with fraudulent claims. Sydney Powell mentioned Alito was going to support their claims.

6. Why does the media have to be so incredibly dense as to entertain a laundry list of possibilites other than he’s a hyperpartisan conspiracy-theorist to a degree that compromises his ability to do the job as instructed by The Constitution.

7. Because we have some of the most corrupt Supreme Court justices in our country’s history. They were bought and paid for by their handlers, the billionaire class. If you think alito and thomas are the only sellout traitors on the court, I’ve got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn. Unless we get teeth in the oversight rules for SC Justices, we risk turning our democracy into a dictatorship.

8. He sucks, that’s why.

9. The real deep state.

10. What is the purpose of this article exactly?

    We know Alito is conservative. We know Alito is aligned with Republicans, with Trump, and the Proto-Maga “brain trust” for decades. We know that he’s an originalist of convenience. We know there is no meaningful means of pressuring him.

    So, we can also pretty accurately surmise/predict that he will not recuse himself. There’s no reason for him to do so. I’m guessing the Atlantic gets subscriptions or ad revenue out of this, but why do this to ourselves?

11. Why did the chicken cross the road?

12. because he is a trump supporting pig who isn’t qualified to serve as a dog catcher much less a justice

13. We all knew who and what he is, so none of us should be surprised. Much like Thomas, he really doesn’t give a shit what you think. He fumbled the flag in distress response, which for someone with a brilliant legal mind, is… well.. disturbing (a sophomore studying PR could’ve handled that better). but, he doesn’t care, we are blessed that he responded at all. This whole shitshow needs a reboot that won’t happen. Sorry for the rant.

14. Because he’s a piece of shit who thinks white people are superior to everyone and thinks the rich should keep the poor under their foot?

    Did I get it right?

15. Everyone knows.

16. Paywalled.

17. Let’s see … because he’s a partisan hack with serious 1930’s German Judiciary vibes who is actively trying to bring about the dystopian future envisioned in “The Handmaid’s Tale”?

18. Why did he blame it on his wife? What a dick.

19. It was the wind!

20. Because he’s a piece of shit.

21. That university students aren’t demonstrating about the shit happening in their own country boggles the mind.

22. Because he’s a fascist who wants to overthrow democracy because he believes a weird lying pervert is the only one who can save this country from The Gays, minorities, and socialisms.

23. Apparently he hates america

    Incredible that I’ve haven’t heard any conservatives speak out against the disrespect for the flag

24. He’s kompromat.

25. Because he wanted those traitors to win.

26. Because he’s another shithead willing to put party ahead of country.

27. He’s a traitor

28. Even if it was the wife…..REALLY!? Your husband is Supreme Court….you’re claiming ignorant on that appearing to show partiality? Lame excuse for a 12 year old…you’re representing the highest court….give me a break.

29. Because his wife ate his dog’s homework.

30. Because he’s a worthless, useless human being. Next question.

31. Gotta have a real unique story without easily understood conclusions to entice people to pay for your magazine and not see a pay wall

32. Imagine Fox News and all the GOP morons if this was Kentaji Brown Jackson’s house. They would put on their white hoods and drag her off the court.

33. Bragging that he is personally responsible in part for the distress the country is in.

34. He’s a perennial shit stain.

35. Because he’s a fascist traitor.

36. To piss off his neighbor. The real question is ” why does a Supreme Court Justice have a need to piss off his neighbor”? It really is inappropriate for a justice to desicrate the flag he swore to respect. Who cares what his neighbor did. The judge made a bad decision a really bad decision. He does not reflect the respect of his position, he should resign immediatly and no longer tarnish the already pathetic image of the scotus.

37. He was supporting the insurrection.

38. Because he is a traitor?

39. Isn’t this disrespecting the flag? Where is all the patriot outrage?

40. Because he is not democratic he is a fascist.

41. because he wants a dictatorship under mango hitler

42. Anyone that says they need some extra analysis to figure this out is gaslighting you. It means exactly what you think it means.

43. Because he’s a traitor like the rest of them.

44. Because he’s a fucking piece of shit
