Chief Justice Roberts sided with the court's liberals in the dissenting opinion

he U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday night blocked New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo from reimposing strict attendance caps at worship services in areas hit hard by the novel coronavirus.

The court voted 5-4 to bar Cuomo from enforcing his Oct. 6 “Cluster Initiative” against houses of worship that sued to challenge the restrictions.

What has just come to pass on this case is prolog for what is about to happen during the rest of the election.

The court will have to split 5/4 repeatedly in order to give cover for the riots, the city burning, and the murders that antifa and black lives matter intend to inflict on the nation.

The rest of the election you ask?

Yes covid was the 1st element of our election mess

Roberts is straight garbage. No one who even pretends to respect the Constitution could defend Cuomo's shutdown of places of worship.

1. Good!
2. It needs to be a high priority for the 2nd Trump term to convince Robert’s to resign and get himself a great book deal and a $1 million/year position at some law firm. That guy is clearly bought or blackmailed, or both.

Roberts was on some of Epsteins “Lolita” flights, the left must have pics and other dirt on this Judas, he always sides with the left on matters that harm the nation.

I actually think the opposite. It will have to be a significant majority so it can't be portrayed as a political decision. That's the only chance of avoiding large scale rioting if the ferals don't get their way. Also bear in mind that the Justices are certainly aware that the fate of SCOTUS itself hangs in the balance. If Biden wins, their power will potentially be dramatically diminished through his court packing scheme. If there's any wiggle room at all, they are not likely to rule in a way that could adversely affect their own standing and power.

I hope you are right. I can actually see it 7-2. Roberts being forced to rule with Trump, for the reasons you state (his power) and Breyer was part of a 7-2 in Bush v Gore. Stevens and Ginzburg were the 3 for Gore. I think “Unwise Latina” and Kagan will side with Biden. Now that we are starting to have cases file, this is no longer idle speculation

Either Roberts was a “closet” leftist/liberal, or as you suggest that someone has some “dirt on this Judas”.

His turn to the Left was too fast (on Obamacare) and now too often, to be mere chance.

I would make the suggestion...that if the Church restrictions made ‘sense’ or seemed logical, then the same could be applied to all legislative branches of federal and state government.

Blackmail with near certainty. DC thrives on blackmail and bribery.

I must say I am pleasantly surprised with ACB on this one.

The fear was she was pro-lockdown etc. due to previous rulings though Freepers assured me this wasn’t true.

Looks like they were right.

Can Roberts be removed from the Court?

This shows the importance of the Amazing ACB replacing the Notorious RBG. Roberts’s cowardess no longer can prevent SCOTUS from enforcing the Constitution against The Left.

He can theoretically be impeached and convicted. Ain’t gonna happen.
