After being blackmailed to pass Øbowelcare, he is the last one to complain about political interference.

Probably just his sop to try to look “independent” before he rolls over for them again on the mandates.

“Justice Amy Coney Barrett recently told an audience that “My goal today is to convince you that this court is not comprised of a bunch of partisan hacks.””

Projection on her part.

Roberts didn’t seem too concerned when Schumer stood outside the USSC and made threats to the judges. In direct violation of the law.

Court packing is the exact same thing as making the Supreme Oourt worthless, which means the virtual elimination of the court as a decision maker for the law and the constitution.

If the Supreme Court gets invalidated, the same thing will be happening at the state and local levels, which is the dream of all democrats who don’t want the law and law enforcement to exist.

Comes to mind Obamacare — AS A TAX.

Diminishes CJ Roberts’ credibility to speak out against ‘Democrat’ pressure.

This is all BS. Roberts would love to have more like minded liberals on his court. They could have a grand time destroying the principles that once made this country great.

The only way you can believe the 🐴💩 being put out in DC is if you believe Justice Antonin Scalia smothered himself with his own pillow.

"“My goal today is to convince you that this court is not comprised of a bunch of partisan hacks.””"

Lofty goal. Why does she think we would need to be convinced?

Maybe try to convince people water isn't wet first then move on to the supreme court isn't a leftist clown car.

I really hope the commie dems pack the court with at least 20 more leftards. These turds deserve to be made irrelevant.

The Supreme Court Justices should know better than any.

The persons they speak of are NOT by any means, shape or values, Democratic. They are
merely, unafraid democrats (period)

Chief Asshat Roberts can start with removing politics from a court under his jurisdiction: the FISA court.

If the left keeps this up, Turley is going to have to register as a Republican.
