John Roberts has created a monster — and he knows it
John Roberts has created a monster — and he knows it
Five or six years ago, I was in federal court on an evidence motion. I don’t remember the issue, the claim, or whether I was for or against the motion. What I do remember like it happened today is the exchange I had with the judge.An attorney for the opposing side made an accusation about my client’...
Summary
Chief Justice John Roberts is facing the consequences of the Supreme Court's broad immunity grant to Trump, as the Trump defies judicial orders and undermines the legal system.
In a controversial move, Trump deported Venezuelan immigrants to an El Salvador prison, disregarding a federal judge’s order and claiming immunity under foreign affairs powers.
Roberts issued a rare statement defending judicial independence.
Trump’s efforts to impeach the judge and challenge legal accountability reflect an erosion of democratic norms, prompting urgent concerns over constitutional crises and the rule of law.
He might know it but I doubt he feels any actual remorse for it.
Honestly I'm just so disappointed that Democrats did fuck all with it while they had the chance.
When HitlerPig "won" the election, we knew that the most prolific traitor in American history was taking over the presidency, with promises to literally destroy America.
Biden had full immunity, and he easily could have said "There is no eay that im going to allow a proven traitor, who is conspiring with Putin, to take over. I am remanding him to Gitmo, with all of his henchmen, where they will remain until all investigations and trials are resolved."
Sure, MAGAworld would have screamed but who cares? Better the treasonous minority scream instead of the decent patriotic American majority.
But Biden is the typical weak spineless weenie that nearly all of our elected Democratic officials are. So he put "peaceful transfer of power" above allowing a treasonous take over and destroy our Democracy. No wonder Republicans despise Democrats for their weakness. I do too, that's why I've been an Unafilliated Independent for over 40 years. I don't want to be part of either of their sick clubs.
I think you forget that the immunity decision wasn’t for democrats. The court knows that Biden wouldn’t do shit and they would have stopped him if he tried what you said. The immunity decision was for their special boy Trump and only people that align with them ideologically.
This piece seems like bullshit. Roberts knew what he was doing, and did it anyway because he is a fascist just like the rest of the fedsoc judges.
I assume he does care about keeping his power, though.
He has no power if judges have no power.
He cares about his legacy, or at least he used to.
I’m just so disappointed that Democrats did fuck all with it while they had the chance.
That's what they're there to do.
Idk if the folks downvoting you are naive or just desperately clinging to the idea that someone out there cares about them. Either way, they haven't been paying attention.
He made himself redundant, if the executive order folding the justicial branch into the executive is any indication
He probably sleeps just fine in a very expensive bed made with the finest silks and linens in one of the expansive bedrooms with en-suite bath of a luxuriously appointed estate
"finest silks and linens' washed in orphans tears and the blood of martyrs.
This robed wacko is a monster himself.
He also does not care.
Fuck this guy
No thanks - I know where he's been.
Roberts either undue what you've done or shut the fuck up. sick of these people. Mitch waited until he's damn near falling over and seeing his god now he's all anti-trump.
Fucking 2 faced goons
If he had any honor he'd kill himself for what he's done.
Unfortunately these scum have no honor
Unfortunately if he did so Trump would pick his replacement. So it wouldn't be any better.
Televised seppuku! No honorable beheading.
Thanks for sharing this. I hate when people share pay walled articles.
