Chief Justice Roberts on Trump Admin Lies

From Dana Milbank:

Chief Justice John Roberts used every euphemism in the thesaurus this week to accuse the Trump administration of lying.

“The evidence tells a story that does not match the . . . explanation.”

“The sole stated reason — seems to have been contrived.”

There was “a significant mismatch between the decision . . . and the rationale.”

The “explanation . . . is incongruent with what the record reveals.”


Furthermore, it was a “distraction” from the truth, “based on a
pretextual rationale” and lacked “a rational connection between the
facts found and the choice made.”
