Chief Justice John Roberts rebutted President Donald Trump's recent criticism that the recent ruling against the administration's asylum policy on migrants was issued by an "Obama judge".
“We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges," Roberts, who originally responded to the Associated Press, said via a statement issued from the Supreme Court's press office. "What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. That independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for.”
The president responded directly to the comments in a pair of tweets Wednesday afternoon. "Sorry Chief Justice John Roberts, but you do indeed have 'Obama judges,' and they have a much different point of view than the people who are charged with the safety of our country," Trump said.

So Roberts was planning on no longer overturning the most overturned court in the land. Major disappointment.
Shut up you a-hole.
Dear Justice Roberts ...
Thanks for hanging socialized medicine around are necks, you freaking moron. Now, kindly GFY!
The US Constitution is for American citizens to have equal protection. We have a compact with one another. Does John John Roberts fancy himself chief fixer of the world?
This little stunt of Roberts' is more proof you're right...he swamp.
“It seems to me that it wouldn’t hurt for Trump to do things that caused a little fear.”
After all those years in NYC real estate development, I’d be surprised if he didn’t have some “connected” acquaintences there. A strategically placed horse’s head could send a message of possible thoings to come.
Good post, Pontiac.
I so agree. We need a major clean up of the Judiciary! No more activist Judges.
“Roberts must now recluse himself when that issue is brought before the SCOTUS”
Who’s gonna make him? I think each justice makes those decisions for himself - like the honor system.
Roberts is either ignorant, delusional, or lying when he says there are no Obama judges. Is there a third explanation?
“Kavanaugh is yet untested”
I am a bit skeptical. I do feel better after watching the A&E miniseries this week, The Clinton Affair”, and noticed Brett Kavanaugh sitting right behind Ken Starr when he testified at the impeachment hearrings.
He was one of “The Elves” working behind the scenes for Paula Jones to take down Clinton. If he’s still of that mindset, then that’s a good thing.
I thank you humbly sir.
Roberts is full of crap and lying. A big lie, as Alinsky types do. The man who gave us DeathCare by illegally making law rather than ruling on constitutionality, pokes his head up again to defend Obama. What dirt does Zero have on him is the question.
Bob the Dinosaur from the Dilbert comic strip, to deliver wedgies on demand?
Great meme.
I wonder if Roberts remembers all of the SNL skits about Obama.
Good times!

The Deep State has dirt on Roberts. They own him. “We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges.” Roberts cannot be stupid enough to believe that and it is an insult to Americans to think they are stupid enough to believe what he is saying. The Kavanaugh hearings were difficult because Kavanaugh is not an Obama judge.
