Judge Reyes exploded at a DOJ lawyer in a hearing on Trump's transgender troops ban:
"I am not going to abide by government officials saying one thing to the public - saying what they really mean to the public - and coming in here to the court and telling me something different like I'm an idiot."

(8,103 posts)that, post Roberts' rebuke of trump, we are hearing more pushback from the Judiciary. I could be wrong, and it may be just what I want to hear, but there is a reason trump urged Roberts to rein in his Judges, "Before it's too late," whatever that means.
I remember how pissed I'd get when trump was on trial and he would pontificate outside the courtroom doors, often showing contempt of the Court and Judge. He got away with that. Now, he thinks he owns the Court.
I really despise the 6-3 Court. Roberts wants respect and deplores how they are treated. Well, time to revisit the widely-ridiculed decision on immunity? They have reversed so many doctrines decided in the past, why not just go ahead and reverse King Donald's mandate to become a dictator? It would be ever so helpful.
