Chief Justice John Roberts reaffirmed the Constitution's enduring stability on Wednesday, addressing concerns after a tumultuous year for the judiciary marked by pivotal upcoming Supreme Court decisions.

In his annual letter, Roberts quoted former President Calvin Coolidge, emphasizing the founding documents' resilience against today's partisan challenges, despite fears of constitutional crises raised by legal scholars and Democrats.

The chief justice's message comes as the court's conservative majority has supported many Trump administration policies, while sometimes opposing contentious actions, and prepares for major decisions on immigration and presidential powers in the coming years.
