The Alitos and Their Flags

The discovery that an upside-down American flag — a symbol adopted by the campaign to overturn the 2020 election result — had flown at the home of Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. elicited concerns from politicians, legal scholars and others. And then came news of a second flag.

Jodi Kantor, the Times reporter who broke the stories, discusses the saga.

Guest: Jodi Kantor, an investigative reporter for The New York Times.

Background reading:

An upside-down American flag, a symbol adopted by Trump supporters contesting the Biden victory, flew over the justice’s front lawn as the Supreme Court was considering an election case.
The justice’s beach house displayed an “Appeal to Heaven” flag, a design carried on Jan. 6 and associated with a push for a more Christian-minded government.
The displays renew questions about the Supreme Court’s impartiality.
