Since we now know Alito was flying his flag upside down at the time, let’s review one of the plans the coup plotters had involving him.
This interview by criminal defendant Powell is interesting. It suggests that the purpose of the insurrection was to DELAY the electoral college certification to give #Alito time to intervene on this legal challenge. But, Powell says they didn’t anticipate Pelosi reconvening Congress that day.

At the Alito's beach house, the "Appeal to Heaven" flag: "now a symbol of support for insurrectionist Donald Trump, for a religious strand of the “Stop the Steal” campaign and for a push to remake American government in Christian terms."
Provocative Flag Flown at Another #Alito Home. The justice’s house displayed an “Appeal to Heaven” flag, a symbol carried on #Jan6 associated with #christofascist. #traitor#insurrectionist flew the “Appeal to Heaven” flag outside the Alitos’ #NewJersey vacation home last summer.
Donald Trump and His Personal Attorney Rudy Giuliani Worked With #Russian Intelligence Agents to Try to #Steal the 2020 U.S. #Presidential#Election.
Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) charged parliament member Oleksandr Dubinsky with treason, working with Russian FSB/KGB agents of russia, indicting him alongside Andriy Derkach and former prosecutor Kostyantyn Kulyk, who have both fled the country. The three were part of a Kremlin-backed effort to feed Giuliani russian disinformation in an attempt to harm President Joe Biden.
Scott Perry, who serves as the chair of the House Freedom Caucus, was “central to the planning of January 6,” according to former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson. Now, there’s an effort in Pennsylvania to have Perry removed from the ballot.
"If you ever looked at the actions of the Trump administration and wondered, ‘Are they on drugs?’ — the answer was, in some cases, yes. Absolutely, yes."
10 years, 15, 17, 18 ... 22 years ... In the end everyone gets what they deserve.
How can you be so stupid ... throwing your life away for the greatest traitor and criminal in the history of the United States!?!?
The Republican 2024 front runner is openly calling for Russia to invade NATO countries.
Trump says he would encourage Russia to attack #NATO allies: I said I would not protect our #NATO allies. "In fact, I would encourage Russia to do whatever the hell they want."
Trump is a racist, philandering, con-artist. A federal court found him liable for rape, he’s facing 91 state and federal felonies, he incited an armed rebellion just 36 months ago, he lied to voters 32,000+ times between 2017 and 2021, he’s declared bankruptcy six times, and historians rank him as the worst president in #American history. Oh, and he increased our national debt by $7.8 trillion dollars.
This monster is proud of helping kill #RoevWade, stripping Women and girls of medical care.
Trump is one thing above all else, a criminal, completely immoral, a liar, a loser.
#Vote and kick this monster to the trash pile of history.
"Hear me out: in terms of its likely effect on the future of people on Earth, the statements Trump just made about NATO and a prospective future expansion of Russia’s current invasion of Europe should be seen as the biggest news on Earth right now and instantly disqualify him from the presidency for any American voter who does not want World War III
It certainly was an open invitation for the Kremlin to continue its invasion of Europe; it was a declaration that Trump seeks to end #NATO next year; it was a U.S. politician openly threatening our allies with their destruction; it was an implicit request for the Kremlin to interfere in the 2024 presidential election (again) on the GoP’s behalf; it was indifference to the possibility of World War III."
Republicans openly admitting to sabotaging efforts to fix the #border.
Of COURSE republicans don't want to fix anything. They'd have nothing to run on if shit got fixed. #DEMOCRATS fix things. Republicans muck shit up and then cry about how democracy doesn't work. From: MSW
Ron Johnson says he’s leading an effort to obstruct a deal on #border#security.
Ron Johnson takes credit for the Senate recessing before voting on any border security measure.
Republicans will never vote to solve border problems. Ever.
So, let me get this straight: The Senate has reached a BIPARTISAN border deal, but “Speaker” Mike Johnson just said he refuses to even consider it. NONE of this is President Biden’s or Democrats’ fault. This is all on Republicans & it’s beneath contempt. They simply don’t care.
Again, REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS reached a bipartisan border deal. But this is how Mike Johnson decided to respond. They aren’t engaged in any serious policy making whatsoever. It’s all revenge politics & it’s revolting.
They need to have something to run on. The economy is doing well. Jobs are growing.
If they allow efforts to address the border issue to pass, Republicans lose their main talking point.
In case you were wondering if #TuckerCarlson is really a #traitor, you can stop now. At the end of his interview with Russia dictator #VladimirPutin, Tucker made the following obsequious and gratuitous remark regarding the the publishing of the interview video:
"Western governments will certainly do their best to censor this video on other less principled platforms because that’s what they do."
It's like he's auditioning to be a host on Russian state TV.
Just a reminder that on the 12/27/20 phone call where Trump told the acting Attorney General & his deputy to "just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me & the R. congressmen," Trump also singled out one of those members, a "fighter" named Jim Jordan.
I left my #submarine in 1992 and there are things I still won't tell people about missions, operational parameters, etc.
Yet this chucklefuck just goes about disclosing national security details to a foreign national because he's a blowhard and a narcissist. He doesn't give a damn about the safety of our #military. He is completely unqualified to be Commander-in-Chief.
It’s always been obvious. Trump’s been a Russian operative–or a useful idiot for them–from the get-go. Remember 2016, when he openly requested that Putin interfere with our elections. Since then, it’s been a lovefest.
There's a reason adjudicated fraud, sexual abuser, defamer, and 88 felonies charged Trump cozies up to Putin. Putin helped Trump win his first term, and now Trump owes him. It was never about 'America First', it's always been about satisfying the dictator he's indebted to.
It all started in 1987 when the KGB paid for his trip to Moscow. In 2008 when Dmitry Rybolovlev bought his palm beach property for twice what trump had just paid for it…(and I have no doubt there are even earlier data points for when putin began grooming trump)…imagine how easy it must have been for a KGB agent to dupe him.
After top Putin allies used their US company to get Mike Johnson elected to US congress, Johnson's campaign avoided punishment by merely giving the money back after he was elected. Now, Johnson has paralyzed the US government and "has no bank account."
Please call (202) 224-3121 for the U.S. House switchboard operator, ask for Mike Johnson or your Rep. 🫡 💪 🇺🇦
❗ "Long before we had a pro-Kremlin traitor Donald Trump in the #WhiteHouse and #MAGA#HouseGOP insurrectionists in Congress, 18 U.S. Code § 2383 established that "whoever" gives aid & comfort to an insurrection "shall" suffer lifetime ban from "office under the United States.
The Constitutional authority is not simply from 14th Am. Sec 3 but also in Art III, Sec 3 that gave Congress the power to "declare the punishment for treason" and it has done so in 18 U.S. Code § 2381 - Treason banning anyone who "levies war against [the United States], and was charged after the Civil War for the insurrection. Long-standing US law incudes the following mandatory lifetime ban from office:
"Whoever . . . levies war against [the United States] ... [S]hall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."#uscourts"
Trump stole classified intelligence information and shared it with adversaries of the United States.
Once upon a time a US general during the revolutionary war did the same thing and his name became synonymous with the word traitor and treason. Benedict Arnold was his name.
I think Trump has earned the name Benedict Donald. #BenedictDonald#BenedictArnold#Treason#MAGA#Trump#Traitor#FuckTrump#MAGAt#AntiFascism#TrumpForPrison#Tre45on
#Trump is now openly threatening to encourage #Putin to attack our allies. What the actual fuck?? It would be beyond insane to elect this #traitor to any office, let alone the presidency. He has promised to tear up the #Constitution, and turn the country into an autocracy. He's desperately trying to secure absolute immunity from any prosecution. And now he's threatening our allies. We need to put an end to this POS immediately.
A relic from the cold war. In 1964 an English traitor spy named Guy Burgess died mostly from the effects of alcohol, in Moscow, Russia where he had fled before being unmasked. The ashes of Guy Burgess are in his father's grave shown in this image. The villagers demanded that his name should not appear on the stone. West Meon, Hampshire, England. January 2024. #coldwar#traitor#westmeon#hampshire#england#guyburgess
So now we are paying public servants to sit in court for #traitor#trump... Their salaries come from our taxes, tell them to get their asses back to #Washington and do their damned jobs instead of supporting their cult leader on our dime!!! #MAGA = #DomesticTerrorists
Isn't it fascinating how all the Constitutional originalists are now turning on a dime, when Trump is held liable to the words of the Constitution as a traitor?
It's like they never believed what they were saying about fidelity to the words of the Constitution in the first place.
The Constitution could not be clearer about barring those who lead insurrections from office.
Ich mach mich heute auf den Weg nach Königsbrunn zum Mammit Jubiläum #Festival. Bin neugierig auf die Bands und freu‘ mich vor allem auf #Traitor morgen Abend. Wenn jemand noch kurzentschlossen ein paar frische Bands erleben will - es gibt noch Abendkasse für kleines Geld.
