COURTS/OBAMA/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Normally restrained Chief Justice John Roberts took issue on Wednesday [11-21-18] with President Donald Trump’s characterization of a federal judge who ruled against his administration as an ‘Obama judge’…Roberts issued the statement in response to a request from The Associated Press after Trump’s comments about the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar in San Francisco, who on Monday [11-19-18] blocked the Trump administration’s effort to keep migrants trying to enter the U.S. from applying for asylum. The president, who is spending time in Florida for the Thanksgiving holiday, disagreed and posted a response on Twitter Wednesday afternoon detailing his complaints with the court.”
