When a judge determines that following the Constitution the law and precedent amounts to entering the political fray, then that judge gots to go.
Funny, he's got Trump off 43 felonies. Kinda late for that no?
Laugh rage. 😂🤣😡🤬 The Roberts court will go down as the absolute worst, surpassing even the Taney “Supreme” Court.
Roberts has always hidden his extremism behind the myth of an umpire “calling balls and strikes”.
SCOTUS is malfeasant. Federal Justices are now criticizing them they are so bad.
The guy who granted presidential immunity to Trump so he can get away with anything… that guy is worried about the political fray?
Well grow a set! For Gods’ sake this moron is dismantling our entire country!
We understand Trump is unfit but I think it is time to confront the cohorts. In my opinion Mike Johnson and John Roberts make reckless choices and promote unconstitutional decisions while they shirk responsibility as they choose to align with a total misfit.
He already did.
You mean he doesn't want to enter the cesspool he stirred up? Imagine that?!
Pretending his mouth is unaware of what his pen and gavel do.
🤮 whatever!?
Boo hoo, judge, y’all did this shit!!
Respect must be earned. Disrespect, like Respect, is earned. Justice Roberts has earned Disrespect. His obvious lack of self-responsibility in this regard earns him, in my regard, even more Disrespect.
That guy's a big problem
A demure Nazi.
Roberts: *sets America on fire* Also Roberts: “I’m wary about setting things on fire”. Chief Justice Gaslight
That ship sailed a long time ago! Robert’s just doesn’t want smacked by the monster he has let off the chain!
Too late. His judgements of immunity created this lawlessness government of authoritarianism.
Chief justice, chief enabler
A bit late because he has already abused our Constitution to trumps whimsical orders.
He’s marinating in the political fray 🤬🤬🤬‼️‼️‼️‼️
Oh really?
He already has.
What an absurd headline. Do they mean the political fray he created? He is one of the chaos agents destroying the country. He is WARY?!! He hasn’t exercised any restraint over that reckless court and he is WARY?!! Too much, really.
Robert Dow, a fed. judge as counselor to Roberts, told a judicial conference the chief justice was reacting to a trend of eroding esteem for the judiciary. == How could that trend have arisen? Shadow docket rubber stamp of trump actions? No word on illegal actions-ie military on U.S. streets?
He sure as fuck wouldn’t be saying that if Harris was president.
As the saying goes... "He's made his bed and now lie in it."
He already did when he GAVE Trump immunity.
Fuck Roberts.
Oh, ok🤯🙄
Too late! He stepped in that quagmire already
Grow a pair Roberts
Onion article, clearly.
“Wary?” That’s the most ridiculous statement I’ve ever seen. Roberts is like the proudly pious parish priest who has seduced all the women and girls in his flock, stolen all their money, drinks heavily, and murders random passers-by. What he is and what he pretends to be are diametrically opposed.
If it's a priest abusing a child, it's disproportionately more likely to be a boy.
Ok, but so what?
It's worth an entire paragraph to talk about men molesting girls but in the case you listed, it's not important to you that they are in fact not molesting girls nearly as often as boys? I think that's an important point when we're talking about priests.
I think you might be missing the point, and diverting yourself into the weeds, but if it makes you feel better, go ahead and substitute “children of both sexes” for “girls” in my little diatribe.
Because your point was to say something that isn't true? You can look this up yourself if you didn't believe me but you don't get points for being older than me and most of us who didn't vote for Trump think things like "they molest girls", and "they molest boys" are two different things.
So the geezer who created the problem does not want to put a muzzle on his dog?
If ruling that dark money can be spent in unlimited amounts on political campaigns is not “entering the political fray”, I have no idea what that term even means.
Too late, Roberts, you traitor. He is despicable unprofessional + very corrupt Too opinionated to be a judge RESIGN ROBERTS.
Yeah immunity bro
It’s not about politics anymore. It’s about whether or not you believe in the rule of law. That’s a no-brainer unless you’re a feckless coward like Roberts.
lol 😆. Apparently he’s completely unaware that he’s been illegally gambling in the political casino all these years instead of sticking with the law as he should have. He’s pathetic.
We would not be here if it wasn't for John Roberts, the most inept, useless, and partisan Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. He is a walking study in the banality of evil. "Ordinary...unremarkable...and bland."
These people are beyond reproach! He entered the fray when he prolonged the immunity decision and then gave immunity. He and his court their responsibility for each and every life that will be lost under this administration.
Lol...it's too late he already has
Entering? Ummm, that should past tense mr roberts. 🙄.
Will forever be known as the Roberts Court of Appeasement
I wouldn't be surprised if he's on the list.
Too late that ship has long sailed on the Trump cruise line.
A man in politics who is reluctant to be ... political?
Oh, he has entered it big time…
special place in hell waiting
The justice who threw out abortion cause he personally is against it, who allowed someone who plotted a coup to remain on the ballot cause he was the same party, stalled for MONTHS to help that same former president, is having his court openly muse about nixing another right,
And *declared the President is literally above the law so long as he's in office and that his minions don't have to tell Congress what they're up to* doesn't want to be political.
Really. Yu could have fooled me.
Hahahaha! That’s rich
Wary? HA!
WTF! I won't be gaslit by someone who has been leading the charge to dismantle justice for all.
Too fucking late for that! They basically gave blanket protections to the, bloated, ignorant, criminal ogre in the White House.
Roberts has been instrumental in shaping the fascist directory of this country, so I'm not interested in his lying BS now.
He is already the fray!! He started this mess,and he will die with it being engraved on his tombstone!!
How does he say something like that with a straight face. He is not stupid. He thinks we are stupid?
He might be stupid. Our brains tend to decline as we age. He could’ve been a brilliant man when younger and still be stupid today. I’m speaking as someone who had a brain injury and finds myself just not as quick or smart as I used to be. A well working hard drive is not a permanent attribute.
An underrated perspective. Brains age like everything else people!
He is hoping we are "stupid"
It's working. Roberts is rewarded by conservatives every time he refuses to put any limits on campaign finance or gerrymandering. His lifelong goal is to eliminate the Voting Right Act in its entirety. He considers his overt political decisions as being non-political.
I think he’s sometimes actually able to convince himself that he
*this is true.
Afraid of entering the fray? He created the fray when he gave Trump broad immunity, sided with Trump on most of Trump's emergency appeals in the shadow docket without explanation, and let Trump invoke laws which don't even apply in order to deport people to any country Trump chooses. F**k Roberts.
Was this who he’s always been? I think so.
All life is politics. It’s time for the Chief Justice to grow up.
Roberts is either willfully blind to what he’s done or he is the stupidest motherfucker to ever sit on the bench of any court, including a municipal traffic court.
Too late Robert’s.
Chief Justice Roberts will go down as the most dangerous in our history. Legislating from the bench and throwing precedent out the window.
Why do we talk about SCOTUS?? Propublica reported justices taking bribes and the only thing to come of it was legal pundits snickering over how they would be reported on their amended disclosures. If that corruption is the norm & not worth DOJ investigating, then why complain. That is just America
what an idiot
As a Canadian, I don't have skin in the game, but I have seen some of this court's decisions that can only be filed under "WTAF were you thinking". But it's not just Roberts, is it? Got to look at Leonard Leo and Mitch McConnell too for the corruption of what should be a valued institution.
He’s up to his eyebrows in “the political fray” right now. Who does he think he’s kidding?
Too late
What 🐂 💩!
Fuck him! He is a partisan idiot!
That ship long ago, John
Huh????
Agreed. Roberts, like Sen. Collins, feigns one attitude while enacting another.
Complicit by choice.
This is a joke, right?
The absolute nerve.
The SC chief Justice gave a rapist pedophile felon insurrectionist traitor misogynist racist nazis communist lying grifter draft dodger immunity. Immunity, christians did that. Blame the maga christians on the court, which includes him
That's all you got is name calling? That's weak.
Exactly. This decision pissed me off. The orange con man should not have been qualified for any public office.
He also let him stay on the ballot
That’s rich coming from the guy who helped unleash the monster.
Come on now! He and his accomplices were picked, for this very deconstruction of the Constitution. All favored the unitary presidency. Roberts, just doesn’t like being seen, for who he is, while Alito and Thomas embrace it. Hypocrisy can be hard.
I CALL BULLSHIT
if that is his conviction, that politics and the judiciary should not mix, then as a former GOP hack/operative, he should have politely declined the nomination to the Court
This POS “Justice” is the arsonist who started the fire. What a goddamn coward.
He’s up to his neck in it already. In fact he’s responsible for a a lot of it.
Gaslighting
The "fray"???? We are losing democracy and he thinks it is a fray?
Will the enablers ever grow a conscience?
Just another fucking coward.
John Roberts' legacy is complicity and appeasement of fascism. Great job!
He is the cause of the fray
Tad late😳
Where is the laugh track?! While not the dumbest guy in the room, he had better hope they do not die…
Fuck John Roberts.
With a rusty shovel.
Corrupt AF - just putting it out there because why try to hide it anymore?!
Is he in the Epstein files?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤢😂🤢🤢🤢
He IS the political fray.
Politico always has the weakest headlines.
When the history of this moment is written, John Roberts will be noted as being even worse than Roger Taney.
#Trump & #WhiteHouse #Republicans including #DOJ / #PamBondi #Florida knew about this and LIED and critics claim #SupremeCourt is compromised because of this: #JohnRoberts #EpsteinFiles embed.documentcloud.org/documents/62...
Sounds like BS. He gave a psycho immunity instead of protecting the constitution and the citizens.
Then he needs to stop causing that fray.
Spoiler alert: he IS the political fray.
He's already entered the political Frey. Who is he trying to fool!
Not only has he entered the fray, he bought it a drink, and is telling it about how hard law school was.
Are you serious?
Fully 5 of the scRotus "justices" should be impeached and removed, Roberts included. At least 2 of them should be behind bars for tax evasion. Today. None of them should practice law ever again
How about just doing your job, the way it’s supposed to be done. His legacy is in the toilet
I don't have an ounce of respect in Chief Justice Roberts. Just Another judge trying to line his own pockets
Bull
He already entered it by making up presidential immunity.
Key words, making up
1. 🤦♀️ 2. PolitiCON is 🚮
You opened the box, Pandora.
Oh please. Excuse me, there's an ostrich on my lawn with it's head in a hole.
Ha!
He entered the political fray when he became Chief Justice. He knew exactly what he was getting into.
Apparently he is getting demands to cross lines in the sand that are freaking him out.
Roberts is obviously on the Epstein list.
Don’t even ……
The Fray is HIS FAULT.
Being a Supreme Court judge is a simple job. You bind your opinions to the laws you spent decades learning, that's it. There is no judgement involved, no personal opinions, no outside considerations, no middle ground. You bind yourself to the law. Simple.
Now that is reassuring
What. A. Hypocrite.
fraud pos
You & your corrupt court are a disgrace to America! Trying to backtrack now....you started this Abomination! We've got your number....and will never forget what you've done to destroy this country!
Not only is Supreme Court Chef Justice John Roberts in the "political fray," his head must be—out of fairness to the Constitution he lied about upholding—in a noose.
Hey, he LIVES in the fray, he’s the Chief of the highest judges. So is he retiring?
🐓💩🐓💩🐓💩
#JusticeRobertsCoversForTrump #SCOTUS6ARECORRUPT
I'd laugh but it's not funny. Roberts is as Corrupt as it's possible to be.
Somehow his opinions always benefit Republicans and the Christian right.
“Hypocrisy always reveals the lies “ RJ Evans, American Heathen®️
Too late.
why stop now, you are in it up top your neck along with those four other clowns
Roberts knows people on the Epstein list.
Roberts is the most political fray entering Chief Justice we have ever had. His decisions make no Constitutional sense. Precedents have bee tossed to please scum Trump. Equal justice for all not women
His Rulings have already crossed that line yesterday with the Voting Rights Act
bsky.app/profile/gxld...
Was Roberts in Epstein’s circle? Asking for a friend😉
He long ago "entered" the political fray: Hung his jacket on the coatrack, put on his slippers, & has hung out in its living room for years, occasionally visiting its kitchen for snacks. But now he is being coerced into entering the dark scary basement - and suddenly the entire house is haunted?!?
Trump to Roberts: thanks for everything.
Roberts is “wary of entering the political fray? Bullshit. Roberts is a wholly owned, bought and paid for, fully indoctrinated political combatant hellbent on turning America into a fascist autocracy.
Preparation for declining to rule on validity of the tariffs because that is a ‘political issue’ between the legislature and executive branches?
Already there, Johnny Boy
He is aiding and abetting the establishment of a dictatorship in America.
🤪
I would tell Roberts to stop pretending he is worried. Roberts with his decision last July has kicked the country down the shitcan for his rotten ideological conservative party giving power to a delusional criminal to do as he pleases without fear of consequences. This is Roberts legacy. Rotten!
Justice John Roberts should do his JOB!!
Roberts presides over a broken court that is: - Blatantly corrupt - Full of inept judges - Consistently creating bad law He is a complete failure.
Absolute horseshit..
He caused it.
Bro's been in it since day 1
Since when? 😄
John Roberts is either disingenuous and lying or hopelessly ignorant about politics. I’m guessing the former.
Welcome to the party pal.
Roberts helped to create this mess, and he must own it.
This era is defined by the moral and intellectual bankruptcy of conservative supposed leaders. Almost without exception, the leading lights of the conservative movement are corrupt, venal phonies who are selling-out the people of this country.
What a joke! He’s in Trump’s pocket. RBG left us too soon. 🥲
He must be impeached when sanity and justice are restored once again.
#johnroberts only job is to be a check and balance against #POTUS power Of course he needs to enter political fray. Every ruling he makes is political these days.
I believe he already is in the political foray.
No he isn't.
He made his bed with tRUMP now he can sleep in it.
And we should take this seriously? Why? Actions are quite to the contrary.
Lol, he's not very bright as he's already there. Duh!
When you interpret the constitution based on your personal politics, you have already entered the “political fray”.
The one he majorly helped create.
LIAR!!!!
You can’t make this shit up. We live in a dystopia now, we’re only going down until all in this administration and their minions are removed
John Roberts inability to recognize that he's been in the political fray for years is like a fish telling us and truly believing it's not swimming in water.
John Roberts and his fellow bought-and-paid-for GOP SCOTUS justices are actively collaborating in the Trump/GOP destruction of our democracy and the shredding of our Constitution.
John Roberts is nothing but an out of touch douchebag.
Bigly. He is as much responsible for the destruction of our nation as is tRump and his ilk.
But does not mind placing his thumb on the scale for Trump. Worst CJ in American history.....Even CJ Taney is laughing in his grave...he is now off the hook for the Dred Scott decision.
Too late, Boyo, you created most of this mess. You're sleeping in the bed you made.
Hypocrisy is their brand
What you said...
What a JOKE! They have entertained and encouraged him to include them in his machinations, and now they think he may go too far and make them irrelevant!
Which was plain to see to anyone not threatened or bribed by him. Anyone who's "surprised" by his actions has or had alterior motives or thought they could control him. As smart as some think they are, they still fell for the con. That's what happens when you can be bought.
Roberts will be remembered as a coward
A little late for that, don't you think?!?
What exactly has he been doing? 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Too late now fucker.
Wutttt
