So they’ll come for Roberts himself the next time he doesn’t rule for Trump on an immigration case, and there will be nobody able to stand up for him.
At first I’ll laugh for a good 20 minutes or so, and then I’ll let myself freak out about the death of our nation.
The US Marshals need to be pulled back under proper judiciary control ASAP. Time to deputize a small army?

Really, it’s incredibly alarming to hear the possibility of DOJ arresting Supreme Court justices being considered, like, is this really the new way to handle disagreements, and what does that even mean for our system of checks and balances, and honestly, it’s just a frightening thought, because President Trump, as we know, called for the impeachment of Judge Boasberg after he ruled on the Venezuelan migrants, so things are only getting worse, it’s all very concerning, particularly given the implications for judicial independence and the potential for political interference, and a real wake-up call, I think… it’s a lot to process, honestly.

Right out of the Nazi playbook! Hitler removed judges he didn’t want and replaced with those loyal to him.

Fascist fuckery like this is dangerous and the courts and Congress need to open their eyes.

And Alito & Thomas will aid in the arrests. Those two are a disgrace.

Your move, John Roberts.

Hoist by their own petard. They placed him above the law, and now he doesn’t need them any more because he owns the people who enforce it. They’ll go for the democratic judges first, of course, but the rest will not be far behind. They have outlived their usefulness by giving away their power.

So would this be one of those official Presidential acts he’d have immunity for?

Well, if we don’t defend our institutions, even the ones we moderately dislike or don’t really understand, we lose them. Simple as that.
Democracy isn’t a spectator sport.

But don’t call them fascists.

So, when SCOTUS gave trump a hand, they didn’t expect him to take their arm, too?

What does this mean??

But, apparently, NOT for corruption/bribery.

This is getting crazier by the day. This administration is threatening everybody.

Do it. I double dog dare you. Arrest Biden too. Arrest Clinton. Like my dad used to say if you feel froggy, just jump. Push this trash can over, Nazi Barbie and us rats will roll right in to wish you a good day.
People were very disinterested in the last election, but they will be pretty aware if you did such a thing as arrest a fucking Supreme Court Justice.

When the fascist coup is going so poorly you need to arrest the judges you corrupted in advanced.

Can MAGA finally admit they don’t give a fuck about the constitution?

Do you think there’s any legal precedent for something like this? Could the DOJ actually arrest Supreme Court justices, or is this more of a political talking point? 🤔

Congratulations, Chief Justice Roberts.
This turkey you inflicted on us all has come home to roost.

Roberts must be pushing back behind the scenes (if I had to guess, on the recent arrest of a judge) if they are going this nuclear. Talk about reaping the whirlwind.

> Leavitt said no judge is safe from the administration’s crackdown on the judiciary.
In other words… if the Legislation branch of the government were to impeach Trump they would be impeding this administration and they could be arrested.

I am sure SCOTUS is going to LOVE this. Maybe the immunity ruling wasnt such a great idea afterall.

Never forget – judges can deputize law enforcement to enforce the law, and at any time the Supreme Court can review their decisions, such as giving sitting presidents immunity. They could end this today!

This is just poor form.
Why would you be combative with your majority-Republican court? The same court that’s been carrying your fascist water for years now.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the own goals (that don’t harm underprivileged people) but this is very, very, stupid.

There it is.
You’d think the SC would take this as the threat it is.

Hey John Roberts, are you enjoying this nightmare hellscape that you created?
