“we are Not judges of Obama or judges of Trump, judges Bush or judges of Clinton,” said Roberts on Wednesday in a press release. “What we have is an extraordinary group of judges dedicated to doing the best to ensure equal rights for those who appear before them. An independent judiciary is something that we should all be grateful,” he added in his note, that he decided to make public after the AP prompts for their opinion on the statements of Trump.

“I’m sorry, judge John Roberts, but yes there are ‘judges of Obama’ and have a point of view very different than the people who are responsible for the security of our country,” responded Trump on Twitter, a few hours after the message of the president of the Supreme. “It would be great if the Ninth Circuit was in fact an ‘independent judiciary’, but if it is why are there so Pashacasino many cases with views to the contrary (border and security) are registered there, and why a large number of these cases have been reversed,” he asked the agent.
