CNN: Vance says Roberts is ‘profoundly wrong’ about judiciary’s role to check executive branch

Vice President JD Vance called Chief Justice John Roberts’ comments earlier this month that the judiciary’s role is to check the executive branch a “profoundly wrong sentiment” and said the courts should be “deferential” to the president, particularly when it comes to immigration.

“I thought that was a profoundly wrong sentiment. That’s one half of his job, the other half of his job is to check the excesses of his own branch. And you cannot have a country where the American people keep on electing immigration enforcement and the courts tell the American people they’re not allowed to have what they voted for,” Vance told New York Times opinion columnist Ross Douthat on the “Interesting Times” podcast, which was taped on Monday.

This idiot J.D. Dunce has a law degree?

Did he even pass civics in high school?

Irish Star: Pope Francis snubs JD Vance with brutal ‘compassion’ decision

JD Vance was delivered a “lecture on compassion” by Pietro Paroline, Pope Francis‘ second-in-command this weekend, while many expected to meet with Francis himself.

Vance, who converted to Catholicism with the support of his wife Usha, had a meeting with the Vatican’s second-in-command on Saturday. This followed a significant papal criticism of the Trump administration’s harsh stance on migrants and Vance’s theological defense of it, invoking the ancient Catholic concept of ‘Ordo Amoris’.

While not specifically mentioning Vance by name in the letter, the Pope refuted the Vice President’s interpretation of ordo armoris, reports New Republic.

The Pope wrote: “Christians know very well that it is only by affirming the infinite dignity of all that our own identity as persons and as communities reaches its maturity.

Memo to J.D. Dunce: Don’t try to be a theologian. You’re not very good at it.
