J.D. Vance to Chief Justice Roberts: The Judiciary Must Check Its Own Excesses

[excalibur]

... where each branch had the power to limit the actions of the other two, ensuring a balance of authority and preventing tyranny.

Still waiting for you to tell us how the Executive limits the actions of the courts.

The executive branch signs bills that change the laws that the judicial branch must follow. The executive branch appoints all judges with congress's approval

 

[Mac-7]

Mother Mary, have patience. The Constitution authorized SCOTUS and Congress organized it and the districts. And SCOTUS and the subordinate courts administer the law, and Congress and the Executive abide by it.

The judicial branch has no power

if the people lose respect for the courts Roberts can stamp his foot and hold his breath till he turns blue, but otherwise he can do nothing

It appears you find some comfort in that 'fact'.
Of course, I think you might have an inkling of what would happen if Trump defied an outright Supreme Court order.
I do....and that is the one case in which I would support Impeachment. I suspect that I'm not alone. Enough Republicans hate Trump enough that they would cross the aisle.
Would a valid impeachment spark the 2nd Civil War--or just a civil Insurrection?

I think that the military would refuse to support Trump, if he defied the Supreme Court egregiously.
Without them..he can't shut down Congress.

Perhaps Trump should research Charles the First~

You're voice is in My head?

Wow. You really can't read.

Projecting. Read it again.

It has no power to curtail, limit, or otherwise interfere with the courts.

The people have more respect for the courts than for the executive and the legislative powers.

Read the Constitution dumbass.

I never suggested that trump would or should defy the SC

But if the judicial branch loses the respect and support of trump voters it will be in big trouble

Because the left merely tolerates the rule of law as long as it gets its way

The judges could wake up one day and find themselves all alone

 

[Mac-7]

The people have more respect for the courts than for the executive and the legislative powers.

I cant imagine why

Our courts are a joke

 

[Mac-7]

Read the Constitution dumbass.

Where does the Constitution mandate respect for demigods in black robes?

 

[WEATHER53]

Give me 50 judges out of the 800, a mere 50, who will validate this constant one judge declaration and you would have something on an issue.
Otherwise you have what is being inflicted on Americans-a rogue in a robe

 

[WEATHER53]

Where does the Constitution mandate respect for demigods in black robes?

It does not and it indicated their power is as a whole judicial body and not a one judge legislator

 

[WEATHER53]

The people have more respect for the courts than for the executive and the legislative powers.

Your person does
Vast majority of Americans see the heinous fallacy one unelected, TDS infected judge from podunk iowa trying to supplant the 80 million elected POTUS

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

I cant imagine why

Not at all.

 

[Robert W]

Fact!

John Roberts demand respect for inferior court judges who overstep their bounds. But only the one Supreme Court is in Article III, all inferior courts are mere creations of Congress and can be dissolved by Congress.

So, Roberts believes inferior court judges are coequal to the President, a Constitutional office? That would thus mean they are also equal to the Supreme Court.

Vice President J.D. Vance sat down for an interview with Ross Douthat. They cover much ground, but I wanted to flag this exchange concerning Chief Justice Roberts:​

​

​

​

​

Vance is exactly right.​

​

​

I think the Chief Justice largely lives in a bubble where everyone is afraid to challenge him. He sees himself as a singular force of good to save the rule of law. In Roberts's mind, he can take a shot at the incoming Vice President in his end-of-year address, and everyone will simply submit to his will. No. Vance is fighting back. Roberts thinks he can lecture the President that no judge, even members of the Supreme Court can be impeached; we the people simply have to take it. No. Vance is fighting back.​

​

​

And, I think, lower court judges are starting to fight back as well. Judge Ho made this same point in his concurrence yesterday, which subtly responded to Chief Justice Roberts:​

​

​

​

​

Yet Roberts does exactly that. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.​

​

​

There is a storm brewing on the horizon, and I don't think the Chief quite sees it. As I will explain in a forthcoming essay, Roberts's two decades on the bench have rendered him utterly unqualified to deal with what lies ahead. The arc from NFIB to AARP does not bode well for the future. Here is a preview:​

​

​

​

​

Roberts's colleagues should, sooner rather than later, cut the tether and listen to Justices Alito and Thomas. These national treasures should not retire, as they are the only ones speaking sense.​

Thanks a hell of a lot. A wonderful composite of exchanges. Super work!!!

 

[Moonglow]

When will the executive branch check its excesses?

 

[Robert W]

Wow, you are using some big fancy words that most MAGA lemming have no idea what they mean.

Well clearly you state you have no idea what is meant!!!

 

[Moonglow]

I cant imagine why

Our courts are a joke

Like when the courts sued Biden over the border issue, that was a joke?

You will have to document what you are talking about before I respond
