Without mentioning his name, liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor took a veiled shot at President Trump on Thursday evening.
During remarks at an event for the American Bar Association in DC, Sotomayor told lawyers in attendance to stand up and fight against unprecedented attacks.
โOur job is to stand up for people who canโt do it themselves. And our job is to be the champion of lost causes,โ Sotomayor said referring to Trumpโs executive actions against Deep State law firms.
โBut right now, we canโt lose the battles we are facing. And we need trained and passionate and committed lawyers to fight this fight,โ Sotomayor said according to AP.
Sotomayorโs comments come after Chief Justice Roberts on Wednesday evening rebuked President Trump AGAIN in a rare public appearance.
This is the second time Roberts has publicly lashed out at President Trump in recent months.
In March Justice Roberts defended the rogue judiciary and slammed Trumpโs call for impeaching judges.
Speaking at a fireside chat to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the US District Court for the Western District of New York, Justice Roberts lashed out at Trump for his calls to impeach radical judges.
โWell, Iโve already spoken to that and, you know, impeachment is not how you register disagreement with decisions,โ Roberts said in front of hundreds of judges and lawyers.
โThatโs what weโre there for,โ Roberts said.
โThe judiciary is a co-equal branch of government, separate from the others, with the authority to interpret the Constitution as law and strike down, obviously, acts of Congress or acts of the president,โ he said.
