On Wednesday, the conservative-dominated Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) issued a rare ruling against President Donald Trump. Some of his biggest supporters are particularly unhappy with one of those justices.

Among other Trump-friendly rulings, Chief Justice John Roberts authored last year’s decision that said former presidents enjoy broad immunity from criminal prosecution.

Last week, the chief justice temporarily let the Trump administration avoid paying out congressionally appropriated funds.

Foreign aid groups on Friday implored the Supreme Court to lift a stay and unleash nearly $2 billion in funding they say was unconstitutionally frozen by Trump.
