The chief justice doesn’t like his conservative Supreme Court colleagues getting called out for judicial overreach.

    As soon as they stop doing things worthy of criticism (and undo what they’ve already done), then I’ll agree that the liberal justices should stop criticizing the court.

    How about getting rid of the buffoons who completely undermine the legitimacy of the court? No? Okay. You keep going off Ketanji Brown Jackson. We love to see it.

    If anything highlights the fact that most of the justices are partisan hacks, it is acting like snowflakes over what ought to be the bare minimum of ethical guidelines. There are stricter rules in place for minimum wage jobs.

    They passed a ruling that removes the rights of a protected class by using a case that was literally fabricated out of mid air.

    It does feel a certain kind of wild to have him asking someone whose entire job is judging to not do that thing
