Senator Grassley called out Chief Justice Roberts for his double standard when it came to criticizing Presidents. The Daily Caller reports:
GOP Senator Chuck Grassley came to President Trump’s defense on Wednesday after Chief Justice John Roberts rebuked the president for criticizing the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
“I think it’s a disgrace when every case gets filed in the 9th Circuit,” Trump said, responding to a California judge’s decision against his administration’s asylum rules. “That’s not law, that’s not what this country stands for. Every case that gets filed in the 9th Circuit, we get beaten and then we end up having to go to the Supreme Court, like the travel ban, and we won.”
Roberts responded the next day in a statement to the Associated Press. […]
Soon after, the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman used Twitter to jump into the fray and remind everyone that Trump wasn’t the first president to criticize a judge with regard to a ruling — even a Supreme Court ruling.

This is important to not let Democrats get away with what they’ve done. More importantly though, President Trump’s comment on the 9th Circuit must have struck a chord, most likely because it is correct.
Thank you Senator Grassley. I am so very grateful to you for your handling of Kavanaugh’s circus, where a woman who testified very carefully not to incriminate herself , but slipped up anyway, and s/b prosecuted was aided by all Democrats on the committee . You showed the patience of Job, but stood firm. Thank you for defending President Trump, wish more would. Roberts is now left after Obama.
Robert is a kind SOB !
Yes, Roberts was selected by GW Bush (who is NOT a CONSERVATIVE) , and didn’t take long for Roberts to show his true colors…He practically Re-Wrote the Obamacare definition of TAX or Penalty (which is a role of LEGISLATIVE BRANCH -NOT HIS ) and pushed thru Obamacare! He should be a VERY LAST person to accuse or Correct our GREAT PRESIDENT! If any elected official had a tiny percentage of patriotism driving our president to MAGA in their blood we would have had a much different country!
Why are we just naive about what is and has been happening for the last 10 years. The former preident put into service a nation full of judges that are obligated to the former president’s and his mentor’s objectives of overthrowing the country into a socialist state. Isn’t that obvious? In order to do that all the steps in the book on converting the populace to their way of thinking or to allow them to corrupt the populace has been enacted. The ongoing activities is to do what the 9th court is doing, to rule favorably on the dems suits making it sound like they are legally in the right, when in fact they have been 100% wrong and luckily the real president has taken it to the SC to over rule the 9th court. Also, the latest in the dems, soros and obama’s acts is to increase selected foreign nationals that will act as terrorists, sleeper fighters as refugees, millions of them and now caravans from the south made up of gangs and criminals to do the same and to help soros open borders and open societies. The refugees have filled up the eastern seaboard and now the south and central Americans are trying to fill up the western areas. I believe this will result in an all out war from both sides and help from some of the states like california. We are facing all this and an invasion and I hope the president and the U.S. military is taking steps to be ready and with the patriots groups as well. I think we have to stop it before the dems enact it and the country is damaged beyond repair. Soros and Obama and their coharts don’t care about life or throwing it away but we under God’s care do. I feel all the refugees from the middle east should be sent back with our help to rebuild all their homes and organizations schools and hospitals without any assistance in military, let them care for their own battles. The folks from the south also shouls just be sent home, and give them buses to do it, no drivers. then to arrest and charge all that have participated starting at the top with treason and go from there legally and any that will swear on the Constitution and face camp time to be placed in the service of the government and monitored. This will include acting as a government witness with verifiable facts or face incarceration somewhere. Otherwise our life and future of the nation is forfeit and our God given rights.
It appears to me that the 9th circuit almost always rules against any common sense solution. We the people agree with the ban, and ‘we the people’ is what our country is all about, isn’t it ? Our President is trying his best to protect us from more Border jumping law breakers. Tell those people to go back home and take charge of their country ,and make it what they want. We haven’t gone through all the work and worry, trials and troubles, wars and battles , to make them a safe , happy , free place to just move into. We already have our own needy to take care of . Judges you do have obligations to we the people of our country , not the rest of the world!
Roberts involvement was favoritism for the Left when he demonstrated his rescue of Obama’s “Obamacare” by twisting its intended meaning into a federal tax to save it from being nullified at its introduction deadline. As a result, it became “legal” as a tax, and became mandatory to American consumers as “health insurance.” Failing to buy it resulted in no Obamacare, but a tax penalty to non-insured tax-payers when federal income taxes became due. It has remained so as technically a tax, when in reality it should have been a mandatory federal health insurance which was so corrupted that Chief Justice Roberts’ benevolent save for the Obama presidency kept the Obamacare program intact…again,not as health insurance, but as a federal tax penalty if not bought by the consumer.
As for Senator Grassley, a most trustworthy U.S. Senator whose values have been honorable since his first day in office. He questioned the Roberts “tax arrangement” from its start. But, it was passed into law by Supreme Court with Chief Justice Roberts recommendation.
Trump could not have been more correct regarding Washington,DC as a Swamp.
…Yeah!
Senator Grassley speaks the truth!
YeeHaa…MAGA!
Happy Thanksgiving.
