"If Donald Trump is playing king, Roberts is his court jester."

"More than a decade later, it’s obvious that not only was Roberts out of his mind, but also that his doe-eyed ignorance about the level of racial progress since 1965 has actively enabled the country’s current backward slide into Jim Crow." - @AngryBlackLady

"Like most people, I don’t watch Fake News CNN or MSDNC, but I understand they are going 'crazy' asking what is it that I was thanking Justice Roberts for? They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had I would have told these sleazebag 'journalists' that I thanked him for SWEARING ME IN ON INAUGURATION DAY, AND DOING A REALLY GOOD JOB IN SO DOING!" he said."

Sure.

"As #Trump made his way out of Congress following his first speech to the body since retaking office in January, he stopped to shake hands with the 4 Supreme Court justices in attendance. While shaking the hand of Chief Justice #JohnRoberts he said, “Thank you again, I won’t forget it,” then slapped the chief on the back.[...] Roberts gave Trump a get-out-of-jail-free card, and Trump is grateful.'

The exchange was so awkward, it should have been followed by the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme song. While #Trump was shaking hands down the aisle, exiting the House chamber after his address last night, network cameras caught him as he turned to Chief Justice #JohnRoberts, patted him on the back, & said, “Thank you again. Thank you again. I won’t forget.” Roberts, whose back was to the camera, then headed for the exit.

But that 2014 decision, written by Chief Justice #JohnRoberts Jr., was a narrow one, noting that other state & local govts had found ways to accommodate the rights of those opposed to #abortion & the #women entering clinics.

Mary Ziegler, an abortion #law expert & prof at the UC Davis School of Law, cautioned against reading too much into the majority’s decision not to review the #NewJersey & #Illinois cases.
