Chief Justice Roberts Is Playing the Ostrich
Abstract
The Supreme Court is under great stress, if not in crisis. So says Chief Justice John Roberts in his annual report.
In important respects, Roberts is surely correct. The public’s trust in the court has slumped to catastrophic lows; individual justices are threatened with violence; the justices’ family privacy has been upended by demonstrations at their homes; the Internet is flooded with misinformation about the court and the justices that provokes deep concern about safety and reputation.
