Should read : BREAKING: Chief Justice John Roberts says impeachment of federal judges called John Roberts is “not an appropriate response” to disagreement with my rulings. Any other judges that are not me, go effing nuts Donnie.
Roberts realizes (too late?) that he has created an authoritarian monster who feels he has Court blessings to ...uh... destroy the law. Good chance Trump will now stiff-arm the SCOTUS? As Karen Carpenter sang..."We've only just begun..." Strap in. Rough road for Constitutional Law ahead!
Roberts: Cool your jets, hot rod. We have to play the game and keep up appearances. Where do you think the appellate process will end up? Why do you think I was put here?
There was a time within living memory when a chief justice rebuking a president would have meant something. But when Tom Homan can say "I don't care what judges think," that time is in the past.
I mean, he's right here, but it seems inappropriately timid giving the stakes.
Couldn't Roberts have put a little more sauce into this and jazzed it up a bit with a "not an appropriate response and only a f'ing criminally insane idiot uniquely unfit for the presidency would think it it."
That news outlets are calling this statement “extraordinary” is ridiculous. It’s a half-assed rebuttal to literal tyranny that Roberts, himself, is responsible for creating.

Maybe he should’ve read up on the role of the judiciary in an autocracy *before* giving Mango Mugabe blanket immunity.
