In the latest instance, conservative Justice Samuel Alito has been the target of hit pieces from the NY Times and the Washington Post related to flag-flying at his Virginia home and New Jersey beach house. The pieceswithout evidence that the flags are “symbols of January 6th” and “Christian nationalism” and cite purported experts who say they represent clear conflicts of interest for Alito.
Alito told lawmakers the incidents were not in any way his doing. He revealed that in the case of the upside-down American flag — which he said was raised by his wife Martha-Ann Alito during a “nasty neighborhood dispute” — he actually told his wife to take it down and that she refused for several days.
“She makes her own decisions, and I have always respected her right to do so,” he wrote. “She has made many sacrifices to accommodate my service on the Supreme Court, including the insult of having to endure numerous, loud, obscene, and personally insulting protests in front of our home that continue to this day and now threaten to escalate.”
