Calls for Justice Alito's Recusal Intensify Over Controversial Flag Displays
Former clerk and legal experts question Alito's impartiality in cases linked to January 6 and gerrymandering.
- Susan Sullivan, a former Alito clerk, criticizes his refusal to recuse, citing flag displays as evidence of bias.
- Flags associated with the 'Stop the Steal' movement were flown at Alito's homes shortly after the Capitol attack.
- Alito attributes the flag displays to his wife, a defense deemed irrelevant by critics.
- Legal experts argue that the flags compromise Alito's appearance of impartiality.
- Alito's recent rulings, including one on racial gerrymandering, further fuel concerns about his judicial philosophy.
