Question: 1 / 400

Who is the current Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court as of 2023?

John Roberts.

John Roberts is currently the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court as of 2023. He was appointed to this role in 2005 by President George W. Bush. This means that John Roberts has been the Chief Justice for a longer period of time than any of the other options.

While Sonia Sotomayor, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett are all current Associate Justices on the Supreme Court, they are not the Chief Justice. This means that they do not hold the same level of authority and responsibility as the Chief Justice.

In addition, the dates in the question (as of 2023) suggest that the question is asking about a future Chief Justice. Since the other options have already been appointed as Associate Justices, it is unlikely that they would be chosen as the future Chief Justice.
