How many historical flags are there?
I also bet he didn't know what it looked like until he was essentially told by his hyper-partisan sources to be outraged that the Alitos flew it. I do know what it looks like and now that I think about it, I've not seen it flown by any MAGAs near me. They seem to prefer "TRUMP 2024" and "**** JOE BIDEN" flags. I detest the second one, but it's what I see flown locally.
So hyperpartisans have the ability to read minds. I didn't know that. You can stop posting about this now. I don't think you're worthy of a conversation about it.
I have never heard of nor can say I have ever even seen that flag. I will have to go look it up to see if I even recognize it.
Here you go:
San Francisco took it down after the Alito stuff came out. Progressives are children.Here you go:

From the article:
From 1964 to 2024, the flag was flown outside San Francisco City Hall as part of a collection of historic American flags.[16] It is also displayed at Faneuil Hall in Boston, in the Museum of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts.[17]
Do you honestly not think the FBI and others had serious concerns about Trump’s interactions with Saudis and Russians from decades ago? Let alone with him suddenly in a place of power? Do you wonder why Kushner could not get security clearance for months? There is no proof Biden did what you charged him with. There is no proof Biden has used the DOJ. There is plenty of proof of Trump’s bad acts, which he is now, finally, being held accountable. After decades of bad behavior.
Yeah I just did the Wikipedia search myself. Today is the first time I have ever laid eyes on that flag. Looks to be more of a Revolutionary War Naval flag so maybe you came across it as part of naval history.Here you go:

Yes, it was connected to the first Navy. Now I have to buy one.

ETA: I went and looked it up.

I have never seen that flag before in my life and I am a history major who is pretty well read on those things. I would challenge anyone to pull up a meeting of MAGA people or any J6 footage and show me that flag being flown.
It's fine Zeke, I am just saying to keep that energy if/when Trump gets a second term and he stocks the DOJ and FBI with his people and little things about Democrats start coming out. $17 million in taxpayer dollars was spent as hushmoney for people Congressman were banging. Nancy Pelosi consistently performs orders of magnitude better than the market with her investments. Probably things we need to look into because they have the appearance of being fishy. Also, may need to revisit Hillary's bleach bit activities. Another prosecutor may decide that needs looked at. And if the statute has run, no biggie, just need a state to pass a law to change that statute of limitations up. And no worry about a state prosecuting for federal crimes, that shit flew out the door yesterday too.
Good catch. I have still never seen it until today. Be honest, had you heard of it?
I was apparently out of the obscure flag loop...lolOf course. Hasn't everyone?
Flags that we flew prior to a rifle marksmanship training class in August of 2011.
Why? We don’t resolve our issues the way Demorat scum does. If you think this farce of a conviction is going to stand you’re sadly mistaken. This is a political stunt to try and win an election because Demorat scum can’t win on their policies. It’s the same thing they did back in 2020 when they used the racist bullshit. This is how sorry Dems are and how pathetic stupid as people have become to where you can convict a person for crimes when there are no crimes. The Dems and sorry ass judges like Merchan the moron can make their own rules when it comes to law.
If the Dems nominated someone other than a progressive we wouldn’t have half the problems the country faces today.

What is this picture? Rifle practice? Damn that’s the real deal. Where’s @Joe_Hoopsier ? He get crayed?Flags that we flew prior to a rifle marksmanship training class in August of 2011.
People fly historical flags. I fly a Bedford from the start of IU's basketball season until they're done. You're hung up on some dumb stuff.
Really! How about the Dems stop being afraid of one man and run an election based on policies? The truth is if they ran on policies a Dem wouldn’t be in office ever again. Their policies only benefit the wealthy and too many stupid people in this country hasn’t figured that out yet.
A 2 day training class to teach people the basics of rifle marksmanship. 95% of the people show up with a cheap rimfire rifle that they can't shoot to save themselves, and they're taught the history of April 19, 1775, as the historical backdrop for the US being born from a nation of riflemen. The course itself is a bastardized version of the marksmanship training from WW2 taught by volunteers. I'm no longer involved and haven't taught or attended a class in over 10 years, but the guy who sponsored the class at the Cloverdale Conservation Club had this collection of flags that he'd fly as part of the event. That's the only location I was ever at that had them. I always thought they added something to the class.
Can you get that in a flat bill?An Appeal To Heaven Flag Patch Trucker Hat
Around 1869, John Locke said "…where the body of the people, or any single man, is deprived of their right, or is under the exercise of a power without right, and have no appeal on earth, then they have a liberty to appeal to heaven,statelegacyrevival.com
Not at all. Anyone who wants to learn and is willing to humble themselves to do so could effectively shoot a rifle at the end of the class. We had 10 year old kids who could shoot better than me by the end of a class. They had no bad habits to 'unlearn' and an eagerness to learn the correct techniques. The worst students were cops or former military who "already knew everything there was to know about rifles". Most of the time, they didn't come back for day 2 because they were embarrassed. The holes in the paper targets don't lie.
I must have missed where Trump said to a judge something similar to "You have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price" and "You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions." and led to a bunch of crazies showing up outside their home. Got a link to that?
Zeke can’t see that she created Trump, just like Barry didn’t understand that he birthed the Tea Party
True believers are the reason we're at this point.
"You pushed us to this!" Weak sauce.
Dumbest take ever.
The GOP did create Trump. Populists gain power when the ruling class is seen as being distant and/or doing "nothing" to address problems. The GOP has been all talk and no do for a long time. So when someone different came along, people latched on.
He indeed says the wife flew the flag upside down in response to an angry disagreement with neighbors.
Yes, the reporting confirms some of the neighbors were hostile assholes toward the Alitos. They associated the Alitos with MAGA, the Alitos didn’t proclaim any allegiance to MAGAs. Justice Alito isn’t stupid and that would be stupid.
What makes you think I am "outraged"? I think it is overblown and is no reason for recusal. I am more uncomfortable with Thomas's vacation junkets, if quid pro quo is established (and so far, it hasn't been).
He’s probably right. Neither of us is a fan of MAGA, but they’re here and we should understand how that happened. I know for sure that many are former blue collar Democrats who weren’t happy with your party. Others were Republicans unhappy with my party. They are all now more MAGA then Republican or Democrat, but that can’t last and the parties need to figure out how to get them back in the fold by addressing their concerns and eliminating the Trump craziness at the same time.
