WASHINGTON (AP) — In an extraordinary display of conflict between the executive and judiciary branches, Chief Justice John Roberts rejected calls for impeaching judges shortly after President Donald Trump demanded the removal of one who ruled against his deportation plans.


Wow, Roberts has a conscience!
 
Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. issued a rare public statement to rebuke an idea raised by President Trump after the president called for a federal judge to be impeached. “Impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,” he wrote, hours after Mr. Trump referred to the judge hearing a deportation case, James E. Boasberg, as a “Radical Left Lunatic” and said he should be removed.

And he did not disclose this.

The Executive Branch: Article II of the Constitution establishes the executive branch of the national government, headed by a single President. Article II outlines the method for electing the President, the scope of the President's powers and duties, and the process of removing one from office.
 
“For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision,” Roberts said. “The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”

They will defend everything trump does.

And this has no effect on impeachment.
 
The judge did not stay in his lane and will either remove his hold or be overturned by an higher appellate court.

Article II authorities belong to Congress, not some lower court partisan judge.
