[See NewsBusters for more.] When CNN Newsroom got the breaking news on Thursday that the Supreme Court had invalidated President Trump's efforts to undo DACA, the network's chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin was a logical choice to bring on to discuss the matter. However, instead of discussing legal matters, Toobin praised Chief Justice John Roberts as a politician who is in tune with public opinion.

Toobin began his explanation by noting that Roberts, in addition to his Obamacare vote, also recently joined Neil Gorsuch and the four liberals in ruling that sexual orientation is protected under Title VII. He then tried to explain Roberts' votes.
