"... with candor and honest reporting of their financial dealings on the routine occasions on which they were asked. In the midst of the crisis, they eschew a commitment to candor to instead mutter something about the nature of checks and balances, with the proviso that they are susceptible to neither.

And the Constitution grants him no overarching right to insulate his entire court from the kind of minimal accountability without which no democracy can thrive."

Write Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern, in "King Roberts/The chief justice’s latest trick to ward off oversight is the ploy of a royal, not a judge" (Slate).

But the Constitution does insulate the Court from political pressure. It's not complete insulation, but that's why this article is framed as a call for "minimal accountability." The question then is whether what Roberts's refusal to do was in fact only a request for minimal accountability.
