AOC demands Senate Democrats investigate reports of Jan. 6 flags flown at Supreme Court Justice Alito's home
Fox News
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called on Senate Democrats to investigate reports of flags linked to the Jan. 6 riot at Justice Samuel Alito's homes.
"Samuel Alito has identified himself with the same people who raided the Capitol on Jan. 6, and is now going to be presiding over court cases that have deep implications over the participants of that rally," the progressive "Squad" member said. "And while this is the threat to our democracy, Democrats have a responsibility for defending our democracy. And in the Senate, we have gavels."

"There should be subpoenas going out. There should be active investigations that are happening," Ocasio-Cortez said. "And I believe that when House Democrats take the majority, we are preparing and ensuring to support the broader effort to stand up our democracy. But I also believe that when Democrats have power, we have to use it. We cannot be in perpetual campaign mode. We need to be in governance mode, we need to be in accountability mode with every lever that we have. Because we cannot take a Senate majority for granted, a House majority for granted or a White House for granted."
The New York Times reported on Wednesday that a second flag of a type carried by rioters during the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was displayed outside a house owned by Alito.
