TL;DR

Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) introduced a resolution to censure Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito for allegedly violating federal recusal statutes and ethics standards after an upside-down flag, associated with "stop the steal" efforts, was flown outside Alito's home following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Alito claims his wife briefly placed the flag in response to a neighbor's offensive yard signs. Democrats are calling for Alito to recuse himself from cases related to the 2020 election and the insurrection.
