            Upside-down flag at Justice Alito’s home another blow for


            Supreme Court under fire



            By  LINDSAY  WHITEHURST
            and GARY FIELDS
            Associated Press
            WASHINGTON  (AP)  —  An
            upside-down  U.S.  flag  has
            long been a sign of dire dis-
            tress  and  versatile  symbol
            of  protest.  But  in  January
            2021, when it flew over the
            home  of  Supreme  Court
            Justice Samuel Alito, it was
            largely seen in connection
            with  a  specific  cause:  the
            false  claim  by  then-Presi-
            dent  Donald  Trump’s  sup-
            porters that the 2020 elec-
            tion  had  been  marred  by
            fraud.
            The  revelation  this  week
            about  the  flag  flying  at
            Alito’s home was the latest
            blow  to  a  Supreme  Court
            that  was  already  under
            fire as it considers unprec-
            edented  cases  against
            Trump  and  some  of  those
            charged  with  rioting  at
            the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6,
            2021.Alito has said the flag
            was briefly flown by his wife
            amid a dispute with neigh-
            bors and he had no part in   Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito Jr., left, and his wife Martha-Ann Alito, pay their respects at the casket of Reverend Billy Graham
            it.                          at the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, Feb. 28, 2018.
