INSANE: Cj roberts starts off the new year with an old error | Vintage Vibes

As is tradition, Chief Justice Roberts released his year-end report. On page 2, there is a glaring error:

After securing independence, the fledgling United States did not immediately set about creating a national judiciary. Indeed, among the many defects of the Articles of Confederation, the absence of any mention of a judicial branch—or judges at all—seems particularly glaring.

The Constitutional Convention of 1787 remedied that oversight.

A simple CTRL-F of the word "judge" and "court" in the Articles proves this statement is wrong.
