Justice Alito's Flag Controversy Sparks Debate and Criticism

TL;DR Summary
Justice Samuel Alito's dismissive response to calls for his recusal from the Trump immunity case has sparked outrage and highlighted the need for judicial reform. Critics argue that Alito's actions, along with those of Justice Clarence Thomas, undermine the integrity of the Supreme Court. Proposed responses include demanding recusals, holding Senate Judiciary Committee hearings, passing the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal and Transparency Act, organizing public demonstrations, and pursuing comprehensive court reforms if Democrats gain control of Congress.
