Roberts The Mind Reader Joins Liberal Justices On The Census

Thomas McArdle

FTA:
Unfortunately it is far worse than that, and Chief Justice John Roberts is giving further sign that he is yet another unpleasant surprise in GOP appointments to the highest level of the Judicial Branch, following in the footsteps of David Souter (Bush 41), Anthony Kennedy and Sandra Day O’Connor (Reagan), and John Paul Stevens (Ford).
...
“For the first time ever,” Thomas writes, “the Court invalidates an agency action solely because it questions the sincerity of the agency’s otherwise adequate rationale.”
...
We may not yet have reached the stage where Roberts is basing his vote on “the right to define one’s own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life,” as O’Connor, Kennedy and Souter put it in their 1992 Casey jointly-written opinion upholding Roe v. Wade. But twisting logic into a pretzel he disgracefully joined with the liberals to save ObamaCare in 2012. Then yesterday he concurred with part of Justice Elena Kagan’s majority opinion to continue to allow federal agencies to interpret their own regulations.

Whether what is going on is the kind of deal-making across ideological lines that was turned into a shrewd art by the late liberal Justice William Brennan, or some sort of personal repugnance toward President Trump, what Roberts is doing with his crystal ball can’t be described accurately as judging.

In debates, Democrats move toward open borders

by Byron York

FTA:
“Raise your hand if you think it should be a civil offense, rather than a crime, to cross the border without documentation,” said NBC’s José Díaz-Balart.

All 10 candidates — Biden, Sanders, Buttigieg, Harris, Gillibrand, Bennet, Swalwell, Hickenlooper, Yang, Williamson — raised their hands in approval. That moment was perhaps the Democratic Party’s most significant step yet toward embracing a policy of open borders.
...
The Trump team was obviously delighted. But some Democrats were clearly concerned.
...
Democrats did not stop with opening the border. On Thursday night, they also unanimously supported a policy of offering healthcare to everyone in the country illegally — thought to be about 11 million people. “Raise your hand if your government plan would provide coverage for undocumented immigrants,” said NBC’s Savannah Guthrie. All hands went up.

The combination of an open border and increased benefits for those in the country illegally could greatly increase the already-high number of border crossers and the inducement for more to come.
...
Castro started something big, and after Wednesday’s and Thursday’s debates, it might be hard for Democrats to turn back.

Roberts' SCOTUS: American citizens have no right to know how many citizens there are in America. Don't tell, don't ask!

IMPEACH! Not because of what he believes but because he is a fraud, a scam artist. With RBG evading sunlight and garlic bulbs, SCOTUS is becoming a circus side show.
