In addition to an upside-down American flag displayed at Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr.'s Virginia home after the 2020 presidential election, another controversial flag was spotted at his New Jersey vacation house last summer, Jodi Kantor, Aric Toler, and Julie Tate reported for the New York Times.

The “Appeal to Heaven” flag, also known as the Pine Tree flag, was flown at Alito’s Long Beach Island home in July and September 2023.
This flag, historically from the Revolutionary War, has recently been adopted by supporters of former President Donald Trump, particularly those involved in the “Stop the Steal” campaign and efforts to reshape the US government along Christian lines.
Photographs and accounts from neighbors confirm the flag's presence at Alito's vacation house, with Google Street View images from August 2023 further substantiating these claims.
