About Justice Alito raising a pro-Trump inverted flag at his house (his wife, sure sure, and also Ginny Thomas):

When I got married, my wife asked if GovTrack's political independence meant I would want her to refrain from public politics. Mrs. GovTrack took our political independence more seriously than the wives of Republican Supreme Court Justices took the independence of the Supreme Court. Sheesh.

Also I have never violated the US law requiring the flag be upright.

@kaybee The flag code is a part of U.S. law, although it has no penalties for not following it.

Democrats gear up to overhaul the Senate filibuster for major bills if they win in 2024 | If they win the presidency and keep the Senate; neither of which is remotely certain. But, if it went that way, it would significantly alter how the Senate operates.
