Evidence is mounting that the media flag hoaxes against Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito are about undermining the top court’s independence and undercutting its conservative members in order to convict Donald Trump. Democratic lawmakers and leftist lawyers have been pushing for Justice Alito to be prevented from ruling on cases related to January 6 and presidential immunity, and calling for an “ethics code” that would empower Democratic lawmakers to pursue spurious impeachment proceedings against conservative justices.

Jamie Raskin, the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee and a former law professor, has declared that “if and when [the Democratic Party] win back the House, the Senate, and the White House, we will look at the Supreme Court and figure out what can be done about that extremely corrupted and contaminated body.”

He has found allies in Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who approvingly quotes his call to action, concurring: “Yes, we will, brother. Yes, we will.”

Specifically, Raskin proposes increasing the number of Supreme Court justices to 13, which would likely see the current conservative majority overturned. The number of justices presidents can appoint is limited to two—meaning a re-elected President Trump could not make any more—and their terms are limited to 18 years.

NOT ABOUT ‘ETHICS.’

A proposed “code of ethics” for the Supreme Court, pushed by Raskin and his allies, is more insidious. While demanding justices be held to ethical standards seems innocuous, in practice, it would empower Democrat lawmakers to influence the court despite its constitutional status as a branch of government co-equal with Congress.

The Alito Flag hoax has involved partisan media members framing old news about the Alito family flying an upside-down U.S. flag and an Appeal to Heaven flag – branded “real sick stuff” by MSNBC host Chris Hayes – as an ethics issue, indicating the justice is a January 6 sympathizer or outright insurrectionist.

In fact, the corporate media has known for years that Alito’s wife raised the upside-down flag over a neighborhood dispute. The Appeal to Heaven flag is a patriotic symbol flown from American naval vessels by America’s first President, George Washington.

Nevertheless, leftist lawyers such as Laurence Tribe are demanding the flag incidents, dating from 2021 and 2023 but elevated by the press now for political purposes, be used to forcibly recuse Alito from ruling on Trump’s presidential immunity, as Joe Biden’s Justice Department is attempting to imprison him.

The “regulation” of the Supreme Court through an ethics code imposed by the legislature would make it much easier for politically motivated “ethics” issues to be used to influence rulings in this way.
