John Roberts, Flaming Liberal

OK, we all know the title is ridiculous but Roberts has handed the Trump administration not one, but two smacks in the back of the head in the last week.

First the SCOTUS ruled the protections of the 1964 Civil Rights Act extended to LGBTQ folks. To make things more delicious, Neil Gorsuch joined Roberts on this one so the vote was 6-3.

Now, the court has ruled that the DACA program, initiate by Obama, cannot simply be arbitrarily terminated. This time the vote was 5-4 with Roberts joining the four liberals.

We cannot allow Trump and the Republicans to name another Supreme Court justice. Hang in there RBG, the cavalry is (hopefully) on the way.
