Trump ramps up attacks on judges, calls out Justice John Roberts
Trump baselessly argued that rulings and decisions from judges that he disagrees with could "very well lead to the destruction of our Country!"
Summary
Trump intensified his criticism of judges, targeting U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and Judge James Boasberg, accusing them of undermining his authority by blocking mass deportation plans.
Trump labeled judges opposing his actions as "Radical Left" and called for Boasberg’s impeachment after Boasberg blocked deportations under the 1798 Enemy Aliens Act.
Chief Justice Roberts countered, stating impeachment is not a remedy for judicial disagreements.
Trump’s rhetoric has raised concerns about increasing threats against judges amid ongoing legal disputes over his policies.
“These Judges want to assume the Powers of the Presidency, without having to attain 80 Million Votes. They want all of the advantages with none of the risks. Again, a President has to be allowed to act quickly and decisively about such matters as returning murderers, drug lords, rapists, and other such type criminals back to their Homeland, or to other locations that will allow our Country to be SAFE,” Trump said on Truth Social.
Problem is your only "evidence" that the people you are deporting are "murderers, drug lords, rapists, and other such type criminals" is tattoos and a lack of a criminal record.
Robert’s enjoying the FO phase
Not until he actually faces some consequences. Otherwise it's just hot air from the king of all gas bags.
Don't let his noise confuse you.
Roberts either is on board with this, or Trump is as stupid as he seems.
As is by design over a couple of centuries. Law Enforcement is commonly assumed to be only a power of the Executive, but that is not true. All courts, including the supreme Court have the authority to enforce judgements and use funds allocated to the court to do it.
The question is usually do the courts have jurisdiction to do whatever. The whole point of the Chief Justice is that his jurisdiction is not one of the district courts, but the federal district itself.
This is a constitutional crisis in the aspect that Trump is trying to build support for ending the division of powers. Of course, anyone who knows history will see where this is going, but Roberts knows he is complicit in the outcome, regardless of what happens.
Its power games. Everyone is in a mad grab for power and I don't forsee the supreme court undermining their own authority, even for the presidential pumpkin.
supreme court and congress better act soon while they have any relevance. A resume being the complacent judge or congressman who let the us system of government fall to totalitarianism is not going to go far or live long. None of them will outlive their usefulness which is almost gone.
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile — hoping it will eat him last.
Chomp-chomp, motherfucker.
SCOTUS keeps leopards as pets.
You created this monster Roberts. I look forward to your impeachment. Or, more likely, to your acquiescence...
He'll fold like a beach chair. Rather than be humiliated by having their rulings ignored, they'll just agree with the Republicans on everything.
Take the mic away from this lunatic. Never let trump near a mic again. Just shut the fuck up! Enough of this nonsense. Aren't his adult diapers the whole time full?
Sorry, it overcame me for a second there
Was nice knowing ya. You'll post from El Salvador or Guantanamo? /s
Trump doesn’t know nor respect the constitution nor the people or country
He is an enemy of all
Trump is exactly stupid enough to bite the hand that feeds him.
I hope that this would put a few conservative judges into self-preservation and create solidarity with their colleagues, and get them to vote with the liberals on the important issues.
