Recently, Supreme Court Justice Alito made headlines for flying an upside-down flag at his home, a symbol associated with the 'Stop the Steal' movement following the events of January 6th. Justice Alito attributed this act to his wife, who was reportedly upset by a neighbor's aggressive behavior towards her, including verbal insults and profanity.
