Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts pushed back on President Donald Trump’s escalating rhetoric against the federal judiciary on Tuesday in an unusual and brief statement.

“For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,” Roberts said in a statement released by the Supreme Court. “The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”

Roberts’ statement did not mention Trump by name, but it came hours after the president stepped up his attacks on federal judges by specifically calling on the judge who temporarily blocked the deportations of alleged Venezuelan gang members to be impeached.

The chief justice and the other members of the Supreme Court have largely held their tongue as Trump and his allies have ramped up their attacks on the judiciary.
