I don't care who he's friends with I care how he decides.
Well look at how Roberts has been deciding.
If you had someone who was friends with Hitler, Pol Pot, or Biden, or a psycho tranny would you care?

But we’re not talking about two peers.
AG sets the policy and determines the Prosecutions.
He’s ruling for/against his friend, in effect.
Strzok was at a cocktail party for a FISA Judge wanting to subtlety tell him that’s it’s important to have FISA approved (to get Trump).

“I don’t care who he’s friends with I care how he decides.”
I agree. And, with Scalia, one could be assured he would be guided by the Constitution, and nothing but the Constitution and the laws derivative therefrom — if those laws comported to the Constitution. With Roberts, however, I have no confidence such integrity is in him.
I think Scalia and RBG were friends because of OPERA, that they both loved.
Your comparison is apples to oranges. Roberts being close to the AG is problematic particularly when the AG is so partisan.
