Furious AOC melts down over Supreme Court Justice Alito's 'Appeal to Heaven' flag at his beach house and calls it a 'threat to democracy'
UK Daily Mail ^ | 05/23/2024 | ON MICHAEL RAASCH

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.

Pro Palestinian activists are calling for “intifada.”

That translates to “revolution.”

Last time AOC had a district event, she was heckled, then she went in to her Puerto rican accent gig.

AOC obviously doesn’t understand the First Amendment.

The First Amendment only limits one group of people; The Congress.

Read it:

Amendment I (1791)
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Individuals, states, and local governments are not limited. Congress is and Congressmen are not limited from having religious objects or expressing religious opinions. Cities, state governments, and Federal lands and buildings are not prohibited from having the Ten Commandments or a cross or a menorah or a crescent moon and star or manger scene. Prohibiting these are a misinterpretation of the First Amendment.

State and local governments could even specify or ban religions if their constituting documents don’t prohibit it.

Too many people have never read the Constitution and do not know that most of what the Federal Government is doing is not Constitutional.

AOC is attractive enough as a life support system for a vag, but that is where her function ends.

The light in her eyes is the sun shining thru the back of her head.

AOC is out of her league. She needs to vacate her Congressional Seat, and return to bartending while taking up her former quest of attaining a life long goal of multiple orgasms, wherein she has substituted politics.

AOC is upset that whatever god she worships didn’t dump a thunderstorm on Trump’s rally yesterday.
