Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has informed lawmakers that he will not recuse himself from cases related to January 6th, despite recent controversy surrounding flags displayed at his properties. Earlier this month, a photo surfaced showing an upside-down American flag outside Alito's home shortly before Joe Biden's inauguration. This act was interpreted as a protest by individuals who falsely claimed the 2020 election was fraudulent.
Subsequently, it was revealed that another flag, known as the 'Appeal to Heaven' flag, was flown at Alito's summer home. Both flags were carried by insurrectionists during the January 6th Capitol riot.
