Looks like Alito has been caught lying about why his wife hung a flag to support Trump. Said it was in response to an altercation with a neighbor... but the neighbor contacted the police at the time, and it was a month after the flag was flown.

At best, he’s mistaken, but at worst, he’s just outright lying,” Emily Baden told CNN’s Erin Burnett on “OutFront” in her first television interview since the flag incident made national headlines. “Even if it were a valid excuse that they were having a dispute with a neighbor and that made them put the flag up, that timeline just disproves it.

CNN summary of timeline
I'm unsurprised he's a big Trump supporter, but I am surprised he was dumb enough to lie about it. Not that it changes anything. Alito is untouchable, and will rule that Trump has immunity.
Given the chance, he'll also outlaw gay marriage, but that's just a GOP stretch goal at this point.
