I forgot to say this: The House should impeach Alito, and the Senate should convict him. It doesn't matter if his wife put up the flag, or even if a kid on the street did it as a prank. It's Alito's house. He is responsible for the flagpole and what it displays. He should be removed from the Supreme Court.

Alioto and Thomas are poster children of cowardice. They don't even have the guts to say they did what they did. They blame their wives for it. And let's add the Senate's minority leader to this as well, aka turtle faced McConnell, who wouldn't even defend his wife's honor.

This тАЬSupreme CourtтАЭ is the gift that keeps on giving. Un-f-ing-believable. But corrupting the court, and through them further weakening democracy, has been part the republican plan all along and theyтАЩve never made a secret of it. I canтАЩt quite understand why the Democratic Party hasnтАЩt devised a successful national strategy to fight it. Until Trump, and even beyond, theyтАЩve been afraid to call it what it is.

Or is it just that many of our fellow citizens are more comfortable in a racist plutocracy? Guns and religion - Obama was right.

Which is why elections matter. We need a resounding blue wave to take back the House and increase the Dem "majority" in the Senate. Only then, assuming Biden is re-elected, is there a slim chance of getting rid of the corrupt GQP on the Supreme Court, and appoint proper legal scholars who follow the rule of law, not their political leanings. (By the way, isn't it the Senate that hears the trial on the articles of impeachment passed by the House, such that the Senate would convict and remove that person from office?).

Shared: MaryPat Sercu - MI and Charles W. Stotter also took note.

I agree he should be expelled, but not necessarily for the flag fiasco. There are more important improprieties to hang around his neck.

The upside down flag, supporting the overthrow of the newly elected President, is treasonous.

Perhaps something heavy enough to snap it like the ancient rotting twig it is.
