Alright, folks. In an expected move from the left, Joe Scarborough, a prominent MSNBC host, recently tossed around baseless accusations against Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito. Why? Pure political games, no more, no less.

Scarborough made a claim, on his show ‘Morning Joe’, against Alito without any concrete evidence. He accused Alito of having leaked the draft of the landmark Dobbs decision, a case that may well overturn Roe. v. Wade. Depicting his bias clearly, Scarborough used a previously unrelated news story from the New York Times about Alito allowing an upside-down American flag to be flown at his home, as a launchpad for his groundless accusations.

Here’s an interesting thing to note. Morning Joe seems to have an odd relationship with the American flag. A while back, a contributor to Scarborough’s show complained about the number of American flags flown by Trump supporters on D-Day. So, the flip-flopping on flag-related issues seems quite characteristic of the show’s narrative.

As we trace Scarborough’s career, we see he was a representative from Florida’s conservative panhandle with a pro-life stance. Now, however, he favors a more liberal outlook since joining MSNBC, a shift that seems to be more about network alignment than personal belief.

Scarborough made a bold accusation, pointing fingers at Justice Alito. His statement tried to insinuate Alito leaked the Dobbs decision to “freeze” Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett in their tracks. Is there proof to back his claims? None whatsoever. But that didn’t seem to stop him.

In Scarborough’s echo chamber, a belief in Alito’s guilt is readily accepted. However, for those grounded in facts and reality, this lack of evidence is more than concerning— it’s alarming.

Now, let’s play along with Scarborough’s speculation. Alito denied involvement in the flag incident, attributing it to his wife who was responding to offensive and personal insults from a neighbour. Consider this scenario: the wife of a conservative Justice is a liberal. She reacts to a pro-life sign by a neighbour by setting up a pro-choice sign. Her jurist husband orders it down. How would the liberals react? Would they laud him for his judicial independence or attack him for infringing on his wife’s freedom?

In response to Scarborough’s allegations, Alito maintains he knows who leaked the Dobbs draft. Unlike Joe, he didn’t point fingers without proof but presented a solid motive. He stressed the leak was an attempt to thwart the Dobbs decision from becoming a verdict and aimed to intimidate the court.

In conclusion, folks, political spectacles on mainstream media can sway opinions. Anchors like Joe Scarborough feel authorized to fling accusations based on sheer suspicions. As discerning viewers, it pays to take such assertions with a grain of salt until the full facts are disclosed. Justice Alito served us a vivid reminder of the importance of evidence and fairness, an example we would do well to follow.
