Justice Roberts' Plea: Focus on Court Rulings, Not Judges' Lives

In Washington, Chief Justice John Roberts wants public critique to focus on the decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court rather than the justices themselves. At the State of the Union, he emphasized that scrutinizing personal lives distracts from the crucial legal rulings impacting society. His call reflects concerns over increasingly personal attacks on justices, which he sees as undermining trust in the judiciary. For a system built on fairness, transparency in decisions—not personal vendettas—should remain the priority. Let's hold the powerful accountable, but let's do it the right way.
