Oops. Turns out it wasn’t the neighbors after all.
NEW: Last summer, the Alito beach home in New Jersey flew the “Appeal to Heaven” flag, which like the upside down US flag, is linked to Jan. 6. We have photos from July, August and September as well as eyewitnesses. https://t.co/uOjZcaUvk9 pic.twitter.com/yUCqbvdT2A

So this is a huge deal. The Appeal to Heaven flag was all over the insurrection and comes out of explicitly Christian Nationalist spaces. Sam Alito is professing his Christian Nationalism. https://t.co/d7WMyyjEeg

Either Alito’s wife gets into a lot of arguments with her neighbors or there’s a pattern here pic.twitter.com/fYCbi0uQRL

Does anyone recognise the flag with the starburst? It’s not a national flag, or the NJ State flag.
I’m thinking it could be a yacht club or similar.
Had the Jan. 6 insurrection succeeded, they would have taken their victory as a sign of God’s approval, but I bet none of them would ever interpret their failure as God’s oppostion to their coup attempt.
NYT identifies the starburst as “a Long Beach Island flag”.
Alito and Thomas are homies; why aren’t people making that obvious connection? They’re damn near always in lockstep…
Ah thanks Steven.
