Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez fumed that a Supreme Court Justice is a threat to democracy because of a flag displayed at his beach home last year.
AOC went on MSNBC to slam Justice Samuel Alito for flying a Revolutionary War-era flag featuring a pine tree and the slogan 'An Appeal to Heaven' at his New Jersey vacation home last summer.
The flag originally was designed to be flown by U.S. naval ships in the Revolutionary War that were directly under the command of George Washington. Like the Gadsden Flag, which popularly features a snake and the 'Don't Tread On Me' slogan, and the American flag itself, it was flown on January 6, 2021, by some protestors.
And because of its use at the protest, at least in the eyes of the New York Democrat, whoever flies it therefore supports the Capitol riot.
'Samuel Alito has identified himself with the same people who raided the Capitol on January 6,' AOC told host Chris Hayes.

But it’s just fine for Congress-critters (Dems) to wave Palestinian flags om the House floor...
“...threat to Democracy...”?
Have any of the morons in the ‘media’ thought to ask her WHY?
AOC is pumping the Democratic democracy not the US Constitution. Simply clueless!
and Ukrainian flags as well
Chris Hayes was too busy admiring AOC’s nail polish and wondering where he could get the same.
Not over a foreign flag in her district (pali)
But it’s a ok for pro Hamas lovers to burn and piss on our flag right donkey faced looking freak and it’s fine cause they are democrats
They keep using that word. It does NOT mean what they think it means.,
I don’t get the FR posters here who continually allege that AOC is attractive. There’s no accounting for taste, I guess, but she, her shrill voice and shrewish personality are utterly repulsive to me.
Clueless
To the democrats, everything is a “threat to democracy” if it goes against their preferred narrative.
I’m shocked at the number of supposedly educated people who are admitting they have never heard of the “Appeal to Heaven” flag.
FAOC
USSC Justices are not allowed to have a faith life? A preferred political ideology? A position on morality? Ability to define male vs. female - even without a room full of scientists?
If the subject here was the so-called Wise Latina, AOC would vigorously defend her. She’s a perfect example of the crap salad that is the DNC.
I’m sure AOC would defend Justice Alito if he burned the American flag. Free speech and all.....
Its a disgrace that she has a voice in Congress, because of her actual unbridled stupidity.
I had one of those flags on my flagpole.
Women like AOC who can eat corn on the cob through a picket fence are the REAL threat to this Republic.
How about the Fag flag, or the Ukelele flag?
“She’s just not that smart.”
