How often does a Chief Justice rebuke a President?Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. rebuffed President Trump on Wednesday, saying there is no such thing as “Obama judges or Trump judges.”
In a statement released to the Association Press, the chief justice praised the “independent judiciary.”
His comments came a day after Mr. Trump said he would make a complaint about the U.S. 9th Circuit, which covers the country’s West Coast, and where a number of decisions have gone against the president and his administration.

Good on him, and I am sure all Justices approved of this statement
Cue the Trump defenders.
Interesting that Roberts make a political decision to call the individual mandate of the ACA a "tax" so that it could be put into action. Guess he was an "Obama judge" that day.https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/nov/21/chief-justice-john-g-roberts-rebut-trump-criticism/

Perhaps Roberts should have a little sit-down with those 9th Circuit pukes. Tell them to get off their liberal horse so he doesn't have to slap their decisions upside their heads.

Trump on Tuesday lashed out against Jon Tigar, a district court judge in California, who issued a forceful ruling Monday night blocking the president’s attempt to bar entry to the U.S. to migrants who arrive between ports of entry.
“This was an Obama judge,” Trump told reporters. “And I’ll tell you what, it’s not going to happen like this anymore.”

No, it was just one man on the SCOTUS, a man who believes law can be invented from the bench.Never heard of the Supreme Court chastising the President.

I dare Trump to attack Chief Justice Roberts.
Better yet..I DOUBLE DOG DARE him.
Make that a TRIPLE DOG DARE!!!

Ever since Roberts "re-wrote" some of the Obamacare law, he has become a politician and I no longer consider him a justice.
Inserting himself in politics now confirms my belief.

Three seats on the 9th are open right now, Feinstein and Harris are desperately trying to "bargain" with Trump on who gets the seats, apparently they don't like at least on of the people on his short list. IF I were McConnell I'd wait until the new Senate is seated and Friggin' Flake is just a distasteful memory, then put a solid conservative as his replacement on the Judiciary Committee, confirm the nominees Trump wants.Perhaps Roberts should have a little sit-down with those 9th Circuit pukes. Tell them to get off their liberal horse so he doesn't have to slap their decisions upside their heads.
Trump may honestly express his opinion about judges...and get people mad at him for it...but one thing you CAN'T say about Trump: He hasn't refused to comply with a ruling and he hasn't been found in contempt of court.

Regardless of what you think, Trumps attacks on the Judiciary are BS
