Alito, entitled to judge Trump’s immunity despite waving flags against Biden: ‘Politico’

We open Press Review with the reports from the American press about Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court judge who expressed, through a letter to legislators, that he feels legitimate to judge whether or not Donald Trump has immunity for the assault on the Capitol later after ‘The New York Times’ recently released images showing that flags associated with pro-Trump claims of electoral fraud were flying at two of the judge’s private properties after Joe Biden’s victory in 2020. Alito stated that the flags were placed by his partner and therefore he does not consider that he violated the Court’s ethical code. Soon, the High Court will have to decide whether the former president was exempt from criminal responsibility during the assault on the Legislature in January 2021 because he was complying with his presidential privileges.
