It’s debatable whether the election of Cardinal Robert Prevost, (Leo XIV), as the first American pope has displaced Donald Trump as the most important American. MAGA supporters probably don’t think so. Certainly, Donald Trump isn’t likely to agree either. However, there is one thing leftist pot-stirrers such as David French at the New York Times and MAGAmericans might both agree on -- that White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, is quickly becoming an important voice of the Trump Administration, a MAGA hero, and a Mainstream Media nemesis.
But it’s not what Miller has just done in his White House role that may rock the three branches of the United States government as we know them. It’s not his verbal retort destroying yet another media lie that may produce the kind of explosive reverberations that could have the potential of igniting the kind of inter-branch constitutional crisis rarely seen in America since the one that eventually sparked that fateful shot on Fort Sumter.
American First Legal, (AFL), the non-profit public law foundation co-founded by Stephen Miller in 2021 with a mission of “turning the legal tables on the radical activist left” and to “wage a forceful defense of our rights, our country, and our cherished American way of life,” has just “filed a bombshell lawsuit against Chief Justice John G.

AFL calls the conference a “unconstitutional shadow agency

This FOIA request is long overdue.

Let’s see if Roberts thinks he is above the law publicly. We know he thinks this privately
BTTT
Yea! Just hope Roberts can’t drag it out past the midterms.
Pope Leo is closer to a Civil War within the Catholic Church than Trump is within the United States.
Plus, Trump has a physical army.
There really is no comparison.
Trump needs to pressure Congress to codify some of his Executive Orders.
Taking up the case almost certainly would demand Robert’s recusal. Hearing the case risks the exposure of some very unfavorable details potentially implicating Robert’s, the Judicial Conference, and Democrats Whitehouse and Johnson."
Roberts would refuse to resign, and Congress wouldn't remove him, if it is proven true what is implied in the article.
So what then?
FOIA needs to be amended to include the Judiciary. Let the Democrats fight that one in the open.
He is absolutely correct.
