I know it, you know it, that guy is a white nationalist.
We need term limits on the Supreme Court.
We need integrity on the Supreme Court.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
An upside-down American flag was reportedly spotted flying outside the home of the conservative US supreme court justice Samuel Alito during the closing days of the 2020 election.
The court has found itself at the epicenter of US culture wars in recent years for the rulings it has made, including a rollback of reproductive rights and a relaxation of restrictions relating to gun ownership.
Experts on judicial conduct told the Times that symbols of partiality, including flying an upside-down flag, could be a violation of ethics rules designed to avoid even the appearance of bias.
“It might be his spouse or someone else living in his home, but he shouldn’t have it in his yard as his message to the world,” Amanda Frost, a law professor at the University of Virginia, told the Times.
Frost added that the inverted flag was “the equivalent of putting a ‘Stop the Steal’ sign in your yard, which is a problem if you’re deciding election-related cases”.
That came after the US attorney general, Merrick Garland, ordered the US Marshals Service to provide 24/7 protection to the justices following the still-unexplained leak of a draft decision that overturned federal abortion rights guarantees.

Tldr; but why is this just coming out now? Seems like it shoulda been news 3.5 yrs ago.
I initially thought maybe it was in response to Jan 6th, like, "oh no, we're out of control." But other bits I've seen about it suggest otherwise. Anyway, fuck him. I don't care if he jokes on a meal and dies. Wait…
