Justice Samuel Alito faced calls for recusal after the "Appeal to Heaven" (pine tree) flag was seen flying at his vacation home. Alito clarified in a letter to Congress that his wife, Martha Ann, flew the flag and that he was unaware of its modern political associations. The flag, which dates back to the American Revolution and the writings of John Locke, has recently been characterized by critics as a symbol of Christian nationalism.

The NFL established a new policy requiring players to stand for the National Anthem or remain in the locker room. Commentators noted that the league itself frequently violates the U.S. Flag Code by using the flag on uniforms and laying it flat on the field, suggesting the policy is more about television production than patriotism.

The media firestorm surrounding Colin Kaepernick's refusal to stand for the national anthem has shifted the public conversation toward the anthem's history and the U.S. Flag Code. While NBA star Steph Curry defended Kaepernick's right to free speech, others point to U.S. Code Title 36, which outlines specific protocols for facing the flag and placing the hand over the heart. The controversy has brought renewed attention to the rarely-sung third verse of the Star-Spangled Banner.

The U.S. Flag Code was formally adopted in 1942 to change the way Americans saluted the flag during the National Anthem. Previously, the "Bellamy Salute" involved an outstretched arm with the palm down, which was abandoned after it was adopted by the Nazi regime in Germany. Historical photos from the Library of Congress show American schoolchildren using the salute prior to the legislative change.
