Yes, @Lawrence, 51 votes can overrule the CJ on any procedural matter, but if 50 Senators are determined to subpoena Bolton, and 50 are dead set against it, there obviously won’t BE 51 votes to overrule Roberts’ choice to break that tie — regardless of which way he breaks it. — PolitiTweet.org

I agree. Roberts is risk-averse. He’s also smart. Hiding evidence that’s bound to come out eventually is both risky and very, very dumb. — PolitiTweet.org

@tribelaw @Lawrence Can’t fathom a CJ voting to hide the evidence.
