#SCOTUS #JusticeAlito #DonaldTrump
Utter disgrace that a judge so high in the justice system is so biased. He should be thrown off the supreme court and disbarred for treason. Would he buy that excuse from a defendant? And it is all so blatant.
who's more powerful than a Supreme Court judge? His wife.

HE IS A SMALL LITTLE MAN. SPINELESS MAN RESIGN NOW.....
😂😂😂
. They rule the roost and so they rule the Supreme Court
More yappin and nothing being done about these traitors .
My sentiments exactly. Less talking, more action.
the poster isn't even from here...
Traitors?
THEY'RE GREAT AT YAPPIN' & THEN DOIN' NOTHIN' & THAT'S WHY THE REPUBLICAN STATES ARE THE POOREST STATES IN AMERIKKKA & THEIR BASE LOVES IT THAT WAY TOO 😅😂
@@firestream93 THEY WENT FROM HATING ANYTHING ANTI-AMERICAN TO BEIN' ANTI-AMERICAN THEMSELVES
The man is blaming his wife!!!WOW 😮😮😮😮😮
She has a right to free speech.
Typical republican behavior
Just like Bob Menendez, JenThang...
@@kelperdude. Whoosh much?
They will do anything to get away with crimes against our country
Alito and Thomas must recuse themselves from EVERY case involving Jan. 6th. At a bare minimum.
Your a old lady and should be in a retirement home
They should be put on LWOP immediately and be invested!
In the District court
Or , in the Court of Appeall
Why? Because they know what really happened? 😏
blaming his wife. sounds like senator menedez.
so, now cohen stole. this guy should be the posterchild for the blue.
sounds like a typical republican...just blame a woman
AND A CONFLICTED JUDGE WHO HAS PERSONAL AND DONATION TIES TO JOEY BRIBENOMICS AND WHOS DAUGHTER IS A POWERHOUSE FUNDRAISING DEMON RAT GRIFTING OFF THIS TRIAL SOUNDS MORE CONFLICTED THAN A FLAG NO??????? COMMY HYPOCRITES THINK WE'RE NOT FOLLOWING ALONG AT HOME!!!!
@@melissamorton1282 Yea, that's what I do. But to be fair, I did that when I was a registered Democrat too. Soooooo.....
@@melissamorton1282
What country are you from?
How about boys competing against girls in sports?
The Supreme court justices bank accounts should be audited, all of them!
Terms too
And how many dumps they take
@@bobcob3362 Don't be stupid. A corruption inquiry would benefit from seeing what bribes they've been taking.
Why? Because of a flag?
So now, y'all whine about a flag?
@@bobcob3362 Or just do something about them selling access, you weirdo.
1. Make term limits for SC. 2. Appoint an Inspector General for the SC. 3. Develop an ethics policy that has teeth to hold them accountable. 4. Increase the number of Justices to match the circuits to give one judge for each.they could still have a 9 Judge panel so judges could be recused for conflicts. 5. If a Judge refuses to recuse themselves from a conflicted case, or lied under oath, they should be removed.
Wonder why they sat on this for 3 years?????
Yeah!!!! we're being played
Alito is lying, he knew that flag was there. Disgraceful.
Is it a crime in your tiny mind?
It's really ironic that an upside down US flag is actually appropriate, only for the corrupt judges and politicians still in office.
Sam's pants are on fire.
@@bobcob3362
Nobody is saying it was a crime.
I went to a protest in Raleigh where Liberal college students walked over a flag.
Face it Thomas and Alito are for sale. Luxury vacations, free $250k moter home, college tuition and a rent free home for their mom. That's all it takes to get the decision you want from them. They are above the law.
There’s an argument against Thomas for accepting gifts. But this flag story is ridiculous. Dems making a mountain out of mole hill here.
You sound jealous
@@bobcob3362 No it's corruption. You don't believe in the law, or only if it applies to certain people right
@@bobcob3362
It's interesting that you are the one who brings up jealousy in the face of obvious corruption.
Time pass some bills fortifying the ethics of our Supreme Court.
Their a den of vipers
Alito and Thomas need to go! Period!
So do you.
Impeach Alito and Thomas.
We must respect the Fillibuster
We need 61 votes
Not 51
Impeach them for what?
Don't forget Kavanaugh ($200,000 a week before his hearings IN CASH!), pretty sure Gorsuch has something to explain as well....
These justices want us to believe that they are in no way influenced by their wife's politics. They think we are all stupid. Alito and Thomas have problems.
Get rid Alito from the SP Court system ! He is not fit to be a Judge! He is the Mega !
Any bets he does not recuse himself?
I don’t take sucker bets, it’s pretty much a fact he won’t in this world
it's his wife's fault...just like Thomas and Ginni....she is the insurrectionist...and Thomas had no influence in the plot that 'Eastman' came up with to over throw the vote certification
why?
He said it's his wife's fault...just like Thomas said it was all Ginni...
@SRM_NZ yet you blame everything on trump.
Alito and Thomas are not qualified to sit on the Supreme Court.
There's no heat on Alito.
why not?
OMG, I definitely disagreed with their politics but I never dreamed Alito & Thomas were so Corrupt & Crazy.
6-3😂
Americans love them. 💙💗💙💗💙💗
Only cowards blame the wife! He lives there and as a “Supreme” Court Justice, he is held to the highest standard.
Only cowards like Bob Menendez?
Wanting to stop the steal is something to be proud of.
Are you accusing the already proven corrupt judges and politicians of ever having honor?
@@only2genders02
If there had been a "steal", maybe, but only morons would think there was without evidence.
OR THEIR KIDS LIKE SENATOR CANCUN TED CRUZ BLAMED HIS KIDS WHEN THE POWER WENT OUT IN TEXAS 🤣
What a coward
Exactly 💯💯💯
A supreme court justice flying an upside down American flag. He needs to resign immediately.
Why? It's literally in the U.S. flag code. You do know what that is, right?
He's trying to warn you....
The flag Is not pretty , looks bizarre
America needs the flag of Australia 🙂👏👏👏
Why? Flying the flag upsidedown is freedom of expression and has been a common symbol in America since at least the 1850's, and has been displayed upside down for a variety of reasons.
Anyone that knows the minimal amount about flags should know, a flag flying upside down means distress.
Alito needs impeached with Thomas. Then the other 3 for lying to congress.
Pitiful and unacceptable. I agree, Alito and Thomas have shown their corrupt actions and must be investigated, audited and receive their day in court.
😭😭😭😭 and upside down flag 😭😭😭😭 I can't fly my Pride Flag in school 😭😭😭😭😭 an American Flag 😭😭😭😭😭 I can't fly my paslestine flag in school. 😭😭😭😭 a gadsden flag 😭😭😭😭 I can't fly my blm flag in schools 😭😭😭
So it's REALLY the neighbors fault...

Sounds as though Justice Alito is full of CRAP!!!
He needs to be removed asap
Why

Alito and Thomas should disqualify themselves from any case in regards to Trump. I wish they would step down from their job altogether.
The highest court in the United States needs ethical jugdes!
Alito and Thomas have given every indication that they are not ethical.
They're not in your cult so that means they're not ethical? 🤔
I guess that means Americans need at least another five judges?
The Democratic party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. -Orwell 1984
Thomas and Alito should be bared and disqualified to be on the SCOTUS
They're not a part of our cult! REMOVE THEM!
They are perfectly qualified to be on the Supreme Corruption Of The United States.
Totally agree 💯💯💯
OH no, Free speech 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Merrick Garland is a Christian hating Bolshevik. Thank God he is not on the Supreme Court.
Flag flew for multiple days but he's not involved.
Alito and Clarence should retire, recuse themselves immediately. WE SEE WHO YOU REALLY ARE TOTALLY ~~ UNFIT!!!!!
Absolutely totally agree 💯💯💯
Yeah, we should keep someone that can't even define the word woman.
100% wrong.
@@phampton16
Flying the flag upside down not mean stop the steel. Dummie.
You mean Gutless Alito.
Alito! A more contemptible person among MAGA sycophants is not to be found!! Chief Justice John Roberts must act responsibly, LEAD the Supreme Court, and recuse Alito & Thomas in cases where either is compromised. Otherwise, Roberts stands with them. His responsibility & authority over the court require him to do so. Yet, Roberts's action speak louder than any of his words. They act like, therefore, they [Roberts, Thomas, Alito] are MAGA.
Roberts has ALWAYS been with them
Your tears will be so sweet in November
The responses of these two "men" are so flimsy and ridiculous that I doubt either would believe them if it came from a defendant in their court rooms. Just how stupid do they think we are? They should both should resign in disgrace but I know that will never happen because they feel so entitled. Shame on us for letting this go on. Pay attention America, pay attention and vote!
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito wasn't man enough to take the hit for flying "Old Glory" upside down while throwing his wife under the bus in the process.
Yet liberals burn the flag and you cheer.
An upside down flag represents a nation in distress , very appropriate at this time !
We may have been in distress in 2020, but even that wouldn't warrant something this unpatriotic.
@@jockyoung4491 i disagree, the country has never suffered more than with this a$$backward administration
@@patriot4826we all should display our American flags upside down and watch the leftist loonies lose their minds.😂
It's such an irrelevant thing. But I'm sure this network will bring it up at least 10,000 times.
It's going to get worse for this nation. Biden signed away the United States sovereignty to the WHO and the UN last year it comes in effect May 27,2024. The WHO can and will force all vaccines on people, and you can forget about free speech that's gone!! Biden and all of the so-called representatives have sold this nation when its not theirs to sale!! They are all TRAITORS!!
And yet Alito permitted the flag to remain posted for days in this un-American way. Alito needs to step down from the Supreme Court post haste. He not only has disgraced himself but he's also disgraced the Court.
You dont like his free speech??? 😂

Sounds like Democrat Socialist Politics from Comrade Garland to me!
Any democrat Judge always sides with party over constitution ALWAYS!
This is old news and nothing will happen to the judge.

How is that?
Total political B.S.! MSNBC must be held accountable!
A stupid reason from an arrogant Justice Allitos. Impeach this shameful man.😠
He Looks rather naiive than arroguant
An upside flag and hush money. This is all the dems have
Impeach him for flying a flag upside down? He lost his rights because he became a judge?
Allitos is arrogant. Definitely not naive. Allitos and Thomas are quite the wise men...crooked as they can be...just don't call them out. They both look so indignant, insulted being called on their unethical, insidious acts.
Obviously these two Right leaning SCOTUS', forgot their Oath.
Oh, they both were RepubliCons before God & Country.
Evangelicals do put Party before God.
Anyone care to explain?

"Many strongmen, past and present, have used populist rhetoric that defines their nations as bound by faith, race, and ethnicity rather than by legal rights. For authoritarians, only some people are "the people," regardless of their birthplace or citizenship status, and only the leader, above and beyond any institution, embodies that group. This is why, in strongman states, attacking the leader is seen as attacking the state itself, and why critics are labeled enemies of the people or ter rorists."
-- Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Strongmen: Mu55olini to the Present.
Inverted does not mean necessarily j6 support...it means country is in distress
Flying the flag upside is literally a sign of distress.
Its not a "stop the steal" what a clown show the left is. 😂
They don't care about truth or flag rules nor would ever care to understand them because they believe the flag stands for racism and hate
To be fair, left-wingers use distress flags as a protest all the time, and right-wingers likely copied them. Yes, the characterization of it as a "stop the steal" symbol is so simplistic that it's basically wrong (and it immediately bugged me too), but you have to admit that when right-wingers have the colors upside down some strong inferences can be made to that effect.
If you’re too stupid to know that flying the flag upside down has been a commonly known symbol of the ‘stop the steal’ movement, you can’t be helped.
Now you care about flag??? Where's the outrage when flags burned in street while being cheered on by representatives.
Scotus couldn't careless.....they are the law....so they are above the law....
Impeachment by congress
@@mZsZ73 really? Congress is one step behind Scotus for corruption....
I thought according to the Flag Rules this means a state of distress when the flag was flown upside down! And why bring this up now! How many years has it been since this was done???
Now we know why the Supreme Court didn't invoke the 14th Amendment, they would have to remove some Supreme Judges if they did!
And the whole problem of no convictions of Inserection You Know the whole LAW thing
Maritime law states, when a flag is flying upside down. It connotates distress. Nothing else except distress. Do your homework or maybe you should have been in the service? Obviously you weren't
Just was watching Jen on this. Im gonna be honest here i turn my tv back to sports. Im sick of it. A dude like that Will Never Be Held Accountable. Its maddening watching these people get away with everything. Guy knows a boycott is coming so he sells off the stock he’s taking private flights with billionaires the supreme court isn’t supreme over who? It’s a shame. These folks aren’t God they’re taking money and things under the table why should their rule be final in anything? It’s one sided clearly. Nothing is being done with Thomas and Genie being involved in Jan6 people just getting away with it.
Free speech for me,
but not for thee...👈
I will guess Alito and Thomas were the main reason the Jan. 6 criminal trial of Trump did not start in March 2024.
He can't serve anymore due to his conduct. Poor excuse for a justice.
That flag was up for awhile and when he walk in or out of his house he had to notice that flag , oh the lies that people tell and will throw someone under the bus for their sorry excuse for justice
Good . Alito and Thomas know better. They’ll have to live with there serious biases
Alito and Thomas are two of the most based supreme court justices of all time.
pathetic is understatement. He should resign or be impeached.
Someone tell MSNBC that more than half the country does not believe a word they say.

You'd really want to be pretty foolish and extraordinarily gullible to fall for that one.
Putin can do anything he wants with Biden in the White House. Biden is a weak leader!
Thomas' 38 vacations really burns my buns. Most people only get a vacation every couple of years (or never) and have to save up for it! At that rate he's taking one every year or more. Nothing to see here folks, just a simple hard working Murican 🙄

President Biden needs to pack the court ⚖️🇺🇲 . .
We have enough corruption!!!
that is such a bllsht term. There was SUPPOSED to be one judge for each Judicial District, with would make the number 13, but the corrupt liked the judges they had bought so it stayed 9. That's right! The High Court has ALWAYS BEEN CORRUPT. Look up the history. It has always been a tool for oligarchs to put their will over the people.
Lol,he definitely couldn’t “pack” a rally!😂
We have enough corruption already!
Let's not make things worse....
You want to see what a conflicted judge looks like, Donnie? How about your boy Alito?

The upside down flag has nothing to do with "stop the steal" an upside flag is a sign of a nation in distess or a form of peaceful protest. Start doing your homework and learn the true meaning of stuff

An upside down flag means a nation in distress which we very much are at this time
There's always problems, but we're doing OK.
"busted"
What are you, in middle school? This isn't journalism.
We don’t see the flag. At least, I have no idea what the ‘stop the steal’ flag looks like.

He should resign.
This is a Hail Mary if ive ever seen one.
Sure, Alito didn't know about the upside flag! WOW
*WHY ARE YOU SURPRISED?*
every time they hear arguments, trump's justices talk exactly like trump.
Trump needs to clean house when he takes back office. Thank God more and more people are turning off the TV. This is the winning that i like to see.
Why have the jan 6 been held without trial for 4 years. They are American citizens! Every American has the right to protest if they feel aggrieved by the US government. Remember the moms during the Vietnam 'conflict'? How many moms have been imprisoned 4 years without trial?

And nothing will happen…..
