U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has said his wife is responsible for displaying an upside-down flag outside their home.
Writer Stephen King has 'no words' after learning an upside-down U.S. flag was flying outside the home of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, following the violent aftermath of the 2020 election.The distress signal—used at the time by some supporters of former President Donald Trump to contest the election results—was spotted on Alito's lawn in Alexandria, Virginia, on January 17, 2021, The New York Times reported Thursday.
'However, others disagree, justifying the upside-down flag hanging outside Alito's home.'How dare others have opinions which differ from mine,' a different X user commented.'That's not what the upside-down flag means. It means 'distress.' You'd think your team could do some research,' said another.While an upside-down flag has traditionally been used as a call for help, in 2020 it took off as a symbol of Trump's 'Stop the Steal' campaign.
