Chief justice reportedly took unusually active role in three recent supreme court decisions centering on Trump
John Roberts Jr used his position as the US supreme court’s chief justice to urge his colleagues to rule quickly – and in favor – of Donald Trump ahead of the decision that granted him and other presidents immunity for official acts, according to a New York Times investigation published on Sunday.
The new report provides details about what was happening behind the scenes in the country’s highest court during the three recent supreme court decisions centering on – and generally favoring – the Republican former president.
Based on leaked memos, documentation of the proceedings, and interviews with court insiders, the Times report suggests that Roberts – who was appointed to the supreme court during Republican George W Bush’s presidency – took an unusually active role in the three cases in question. And he wrote the majority opinions on all three.
So what you’re saying is that Roberts is the orange idiot’s little butt boy?
Wonder what the kompromat on Roberts is.
Isn’t that only like $20? :one quick google search later: It’s like $110k.
Oh, is this the same guy that gives the commencement speech “I wish you bad luck”? I quite liked that speech but not so on this decision.
“We fight tyranny!” Republicans say while giving presidents immunity.
