#1 Then don't use the results for determining the number of delegates, redistricting, etc... The data is tainted.

#2 This SCOTUS is an abomination if they do not understand apportionment versus Citizenship. We almost did not have a Nation over it.

Looks like they are working for those days again.

#3 the Dept of Commerce is in charge of the Census Questionnaire, not the DoJ and certainly not the NY State Att Gen.

Not sure what is going on here

#4 US Dept of Commerce put out a press release confirming this decision.

Too bad.

If Sec Ross had the ability to produce a good administrative record this would have been a win.

Trouble is that many Republicans are not really bureaucratically literate. So they don't know how to cya enough to make their decisions bullet proof in the courts.

#5 Then don't use the results for determining the number of delegates, redistricting, etc... The data is tainted.

The low friction way the citizenship question was dropped suggest maybe something like that is in the works.

#6 Roberts has it in for Trump. Perhaps it started with the Obama Judge comment.
Trump is picking his battles with SCOTUS.

#7 I don't understand. Aren't both departments under Trump appointees ? Why did Jacobson say "We won" ?

#8 Undermines national security. Title X USC, Section 246. Militia: composition and classes

(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States

So, how many citizens do you have? Where are they located? Where to establish regional mobilization centers near population concentrations?

#9 Roberts is an absolute disgrace. He is all for the government controlling everything in our lives and keeping the cheap and exploitable labor available.

#11 End life terms for the judiciary. Give them terms and term limits. You can't have a republic otherwise.

#12 Rush just declared the news that Trump has given up on getting the citizenship question on the 2020 census is fake news. Hope he's right.
