SCOTUS "has given no sign they will check Trump's one-man governance by executive order."
Supreme Court justices like to talk about the Constitution's separation of powers and how it limits the exercise of official authority.
But Chief Justice John G. Roberts and his conservative colleagues have given no sign so far they will check President Trump's one-man governance by executive order.
To the contrary, the conservative justices have repeatedly ruled for Trump on fast-track appeals and overturned federal judges who said the president had exceeded his authority.
The court's new term opens on Monday, and the justices will begin hearing arguments.
