Vance calls Chief Justice Roberts ‘profoundly wrong’ for checking Trump while letting lower courts run amok
May 22, 2025 | Mariane Angela


Vice President JD Vance said Wednesday that Chief Justice John Roberts was “profoundly wrong” to focus on checking the executive branch while ignoring how lower courts routinely block Trump-backed immigration policies.

Roberts defended judicial independence and said that impeachment should not be used to punish judges over legal disagreements. During an appearance on the podcast “Interesting Times with Ross Douthat,” Vance said that by ignoring the overreach of lower courts, particularly in blocking Trump-era immigration policies, the judiciary has distorted the constitutional balance and thwarted democratic accountability.

“I saw an interview with Justice Roberts, Chief Justice Roberts, recently, where he said the role of the court is to check the excesses of the executive. I thought that was a profoundly wrong sentiment. That’s one half of his job,” Vance said.

Vance warned that the courts are now obstructing what voters have repeatedly demanded: strong immigration enforcement.

Why didn't SCOTUS check Biden's power?

Biden has been the most lawless, imperial President of my lifetime, so far.

The rogue Deep State Intelligence agency (CIA) has compromising videos of John Roberts at Epstein's Island.

Why doesn't congress check SCOTUS power?

Article III

Section 2.

Quote
The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution, the laws of the United States, and treaties made, or which shall be made, under their authority;--to all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls;--to all cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction;--to controversies to which the United States shall be a party;--to controversies between two or more states;--between a state and citizens of another state;--between citizens of different states;--between citizens of the same state claiming lands under grants of different states, and between a state, or the citizens thereof, and foreign states, citizens or subjects.

In all cases affecting ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, and those in which a state shall be party, the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdiction. In all the other cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
I have seen photos of Justice Roberts on Epstein island.  So you know he is compromised, and will do as he is told, which is apparently the case with his votes.  He is always on the wrong side of key votes.  The American people are paying for the George Bush days every damn day.  He was the absolute worst POTUS in our history in my opinion until Obama and Biden came along.  Now, he has dropped to the 3rd worst ever POTUS.

The end of the Roberts era will not come soon enough, and his court will historically go down in history as the worst ever, with several people who have no business on the court.  Biden's declaration I will appoint a black woman to the court was one of the most asinine declarations of any POTUS.
