“Something that used to exist and was very important. Unfortunately, it has ceased to exist of late. The judiciary has become nakedly political and has lost all credibility. It's terrible and it happened very fast. It was nothing like this when I was a young lawyer.”(quote SR)

So does Roberts see this? Or is the esteemed Jurist blind to it? He should damn well know that a lot of honest people do whether he does or not, and that matters.

He knew Muh Russia was BS and did nothing. Same with that obscene 2020 election. “Behold, I will send them great delusion that they will believe a lie”.

The Court has become regular ‘people in black robes ’ under his tenure; just partisan political actors like the rest of us. That will get ugly very soon. As CJ He owns it.

You can't be serious

Also were you in a coma under Obama and Biden's constant one-upping banana republic behavior?

You are right; couldn’t have said it better myself.

It IS banana republic shite when lowly district courts lord over the will of the people and shut down the entirety of fundamental Constitutional Articles according to their personal needs and biases…

Something that used to exist and was very important. Unfortunately, it has ceased to exist of late. The judiciary has become nakedly political and has lost all credibility.

There have been some egregious cases which support your point. And those cases get a lot of attention. Focusing on those can lead to your conclusion, but that is way wrong. The court system is still very good. Most of the time Trump loses in court is because he is wrong.

Biden lost in court a lot too. Remember him trying to forgive student loans. The courts would not let that stand. Trump loses in court more than most, but that is mostly because he tries more radical things than most presidents.

There are a few pencil dicks, like Judge Boasberg, but there is also a huge system of honest and fair Judges that is one of the pillars of the American society and system. Trump has many times said that our institutions are the envy of the world. Our legal system is chief among them.

“ is Third World, banana republic shite. I don’t expect the star of The Apprentice to understand why it’s dangerous to the rule of law just as I don’t expect you to understand it.”

Pretty ironic in you saying this as Trump is a citizen, taxpayer, accomplished businessman and a 2 time president who has experienced more in the manner of cases against him throughout the last 10 years along with his closest associates. A big part of the issues have seemed to find their way into a particular court in which that judge has played politics, even has his daughters hand in the kitty funding off it. But somehow Trump poses a danger in the legal system when he yells about it to the media?

You are like a climate alarmist who keeps seeing news of storms and extreme temperatures and begins to think of that as the norm. Perverted justice is the exception in America (not including lax justice, because that is from voter choice).

It's the norm in DC, where the VAST majority of suits against the government are (and must be) brought. Obama stacked the DC courts (and court of appeal) thereby entrenching both a backstop to his policies and a bludgeon to any that oppose him.

Roberts has been Bush’s perpetual gift and legacy of disappointment in the face of ever-advancing Leftist creep over this republic.

He’s been largely worthless and remains so.

What you have to understand is that this isn't really about Trump. Trump has the money and ability to fight their fascism and two-tiered justice system.

People like Boosie want these new lawfare to target people like you, and it is working.

He is well aware of how crooked and evil these judges are, but at the end of the day, they are jailing the right people while releasing violent democrat voters. That is the goal. By any means necessary isn't a joke.

If you would reign these mother frickers in (i.e., suspend them from the bench)

The Supreme Court can't do this.

Congress has domain over these courts. The Constitution is very clear on this. Any path to suspension or discipline has to come via Congressional statute ( Judicial Conduct and Disability Act, specifically), and the statutes they have passed do not give this authority to the USSC. Removal, clearly, has to be done according to the Constitutional procedure.

The Supreme Court was created via the Constitution directly and falls outside of this regulatory control, although this 98 year old judge is trying to have the USSC ignore the Constitution and change that.

However the USSC is unlikely to do anything

quote:

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled Friday that it does not have jurisdiction to review the bulk of Judge Pauline Newman’s challenge to her suspension, saying it was bound by 2001 precedent that it cannot overrule.

The appeals court said the only argument that it could consider was that the statute on judicial suspensions for disability was unconstitutional on its face, and that argument failed because Newman of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit agrees that the law is constitutional in some applications.

Other challenges by Newman are barred by a 2001 D.C. Circuit decision holding that the U.S. Judicial Conference is the exclusive body that can review statutory and as-applied constitutional challenges to judicial council orders, the D.C. Circuit said.


Why post something so clearly wrong?

We all complained when Obama bashed the SCOTUS decision during a SOTU speech. We complain when members of the Dem party call names and use speech that sends liberals to commit violence or when they bash a SCOTUS judge and then we have somebody stalking Kavanaugh's house, etc.
The same applies to Trump. He can disagree with a decision all he wants but he can go too far in personal attacks. They have given him wins as well and wins for all of us. Trump isn't right 100% of the time....and I'm pro-Trump.
