Is the Supreme Court gaslighting us?

George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley has posited that recent unanimous Supreme Court rulings may be the Court sending a message to politicians. Facing threats to pack the Supreme Court and calls for Justice Stephen Breyer to resign, Turley believes that the Court is making a rare show of unity. Apparently, the logic is that if they show they're not ideological (I know, don't laugh), the Democrats will understand that packing the Court won't make any difference. They're trying to validate Chief Justice John Roberts's claim that there are no "Obama judges" or "Trump judges." 

There's just one problem: the Supreme Court is both political and ideological, and everyone knows it. Trying to gaslight everyone now is asking us to ignore fifty years of bad behavior. Good luck with that.

  1. I still don’t understand how Chief Justice Roberts was able to skip the second impeachment trial of Trump. The Constitution clearly states he should oversee the proceedings. Yet he did not - windbag Democrat Leahy was the judge What ???

    Nobody seems to care anymore.
