U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts on Wednesday underscored his
defense of the American judiciary on Wednesday amid verbal attacks by President
Donald Trump and his allies on judges who have impeded aspects of his sweeping
agenda, again stating that impeachment is an inappropriate response to
unfavorable rulings.
Trump,
some fellow Republicans in the House of Representatives, and billionaire
adviser Elon Musk have advocated impeaching some of the judges who have issued
decisions against the president's policies since he returned to office in
January, a process in Congress that could lead to removal from the bench.
"Impeachment
is not how you register disagreement with decisions," Roberts said in
remarks at a judicial event in Buffalo, New York.
Roberts,
who leads the Supreme Court and its 6-3 conservative majority, did not mention
Trump by name. But his comments echoed the rare rebuke issued by Roberts of the
president in March after Trump called for the impeachment of a judge who had
ordered his administration to halt the removal of Venezuelan migrants under a
1798 law called the Alien Enemies Act.
Trump
also labeled the judge a "Radical Left Lunatic."
The
Supreme Court is increasingly being called upon to intervene in major
legal disputes involving the president, whose aggressive agenda and flurry of
executive orders have often been stymied by lower courts.
Critics
have accused the administration of defying lower court orders and even a
Supreme Court ruling involving Trump's crackdown on immigration.
Roberts
on Wednesday indicated that the appeals process — not impeachment
— is the proper way to deal with adverse rulings.
"That's
what we're there for," Roberts said, answering questions posed by a
federal judge before an audience of lawyers and other members of the judiciary.
Roberts,
who was born in Buffalo and raised in Indiana, also spoke about the importance
of the independence of judges in the U.S. system of government that separates
the powers of the president, Congress and the judiciary.
"This
job is to obviously decide cases, but in the course of that, to check the
excesses of Congress or the executive, and that does require a degree of
independence," Roberts said, drawing applause from the crowd.
Roberts
engaged in a wide-ranging conversation addressing numerous subjects, including
the relationship among the court's nine justices, which he said were strong
despite sometimes sharp words exchanged by those in the majority and in dissent
in major cases. Members of the court's conservative and liberal blocs are often
on opposite sides in the most important decisions.
The
Trump administration is contending with more than 200 lawsuits challenging
his policies. His Justice Department has in turn flooded the Supreme Court with
requests seeking emergency relief to enforce his policies. It has filed 13 such
requests in just over 15 weeks since Trump returned to office.
That
number is unprecedented and shows no signs of abating, Georgetown
University law
professor Stephen Vladeck, who has studied the Supreme Court's emergency
docket, wrote in a blog post.
The
court on Tuesday handed Trump a major victory when it allowed his ban on
transgender people serving in the military to take effect. It has also
permitted the administration to cut millions of dollars in teacher training
grants — part of Trump's crackdown on diversity, equity, and inclusion
initiatives — and to fire thousands of probationary employees as he moves to
slash the federal workforce.
The
justices, however, declined to let the administration withhold payment to
foreign aid organizations for work they already performed for the government,
and required it to "facilitate" the release from custody in El
Salvador of a man deported to that country.
The
justices also issued a decision to halt deportations of Venezuelan migrants to El
Salvador under the
Alien Enemies Act after lawyers reported that the government was poised to
imminently remove some in violation of the Supreme Court's prior order.
The
court is scheduled to hear arguments on May 15 in Trump's bid to broadly
enforce his executive order to restrict automatic birthright citizenship.
