It would be helpful if certain Chief Justices didn’t visit certain islands.

Will never happen! Just like another honest election will never happen.

The Dems will never be out of power again. We had better all understand that.

BTW, you won’t recognize the SCOTUS in 4 years.

From what I have seen of the Supreme Court, we would be better off if we held a lottery each year and the nine winners would serve in the Court for a year.

There is no justice. It’s SELECTIVE justice/injustice.

Elites/overlords in prison = 0
Americans = LOTS

If this true:

“This may be most important tweet of my life.

Chief Justice John Roberts is corrupt & should resign immediately. Justice Stephen Breyer should also resign immediately.

They are “anti-Trumpers” dedicated to preventing public from knowing TRUTH of
@realDonaldTrump
re-election.”

As I mentioned in an earlier post, the Chief Justice only writes majority opinions and, from this article, presides over an impeachment.

So why do we care that Roberts is Chief Justice?

I think the present situation is meant to be a steadying of the court, which is supposed to be above politics. Traditionally, seniority has played a big role, and the only thing that would interrupt the automatic ascension of the next longest-serving justice, who might not necessarily be the best choice to lead, is this tradition of appointing a C.J., either from inside or from without. It’s almost like another check and balance.

Given the politicization of the SCOTUS due to their own meddling in social issues ever since McCollum v. Board of Ed (1947), to have them engage in what is essentially a political election within their ranks would probably be just as problematic in the long run. (Assuming the Constitution will continue to have a long run.)

The trouble is, as Adams pointed out at the Founding, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Also applies to Justices as individuals.
