Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin said Sunday that Republicans would be demanding resignations from liberal justices if they were reported to have displayed upside-down flags on their lawns after former President Trump was elected in 2016.
New reporting from the New York Times revealed an upside-down flag had been on display outside Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alitos house briefly on Jan. 17, 2021, days before President Bidens inauguration and less than two weeks after the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
The upside-down flag had largely been associated at the time with the Stop the Steal movement and efforts to stop the transfer of power based on false claims of election fraud. Alito has said his wife was responsible for the flag.
In a panel discussion on CNNs State of the Union, the former Trump aide-turned-CNN pundit criticized the Republican response to the reporting, which she called deeply disturbing.
