Michael Popok: 我认为我们正处于一个非凡的时代，因为我们有机会看到以美国最高法院为首的司法部门是如何应对特朗普政府对法治和司法独立的攻击的。三位最高法院大法官罕见地集体发声，捍卫司法机构的独立性。我认为没有一个独立、无畏的司法机构和律师，我们就无法管理这个国家。特朗普政府正在威胁我们的宪法权利，包括正当程序和人身保护令。每当他侵犯和蚕食我们的宪法时，我们都会变得更渺小。我认为最高法院正在为自身的生存和我们民主的生存而进行着一场存在主义的斗争。 John Roberts: 我认为司法独立至关重要。司法部门是政府中与其他部门平等的部门，有权解释宪法并驳回国会或总统的行为。对法官的弹劾不是表达对判决不同意的方式。我认为我们有责任捍卫司法机构的独立性。 Sotomayor: 我认为我们需要训练有素、充满激情和忠诚的律师来打这场仗，对我来说，和你们在一起就是一种团结的行为。我敦促法律界人士坚强起来，为那些无法自卫的人挺身而出。我们不能再输掉我们正在面对的战斗。 Katonji Brown Jackson: 我认为司法机构的独立性正受到行政部门的攻击和威胁，这是一种通往暴政的道路。我将利用我的时间来捍卫司法机构。
