"A day after pledging that the 2020 census would not ask respondents about their citizenship, the Justice Department reversed course on Wednesday..."

"... and said it was hunting for a way to restore the question on orders from President Trump. Officials told a federal judge in Maryland that they thought there would be a way to still add the question, despite printing deadlines, and that they would ask the Supreme Court to send the case to district court with instructions to remedy the situation. President Trump had been frustrated with Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross for mishandling the White House’s effort to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census, according to an administration official, and [tweeted] on Wednesday... 'The News Reports about the Department of Commerce dropping its quest to put the Citizenship Question on the Census is incorrect or, to state it differently, FAKE!... We are absolutely moving forward, as we must, because of the importance of the answer to this question.'"

This has been playing out already this evening on George Conway’s Twitter feed, which is my new fun go-to news aggregator replacing Ann Althouse’s blog. The lawyers on the case have been told by the US District Court Judge to be in court on Monday, to put into writing their commitment to begin the process of producing Census questionnaires without the citizenship question.

Basically saying, don’t even think about fucking around on this anymore.

And of course here is the periodic reminder that I favor the citizenship question on the form. I like having that question on it. And I also think that the executive branch should have full powers to include such a question absent specific Congressional mandates. And if I had been on the Supreme Court, I’d have been a deciding vote for Secretary Ross.

But in fact the main reason the case was lost (and now being shoved up Trump’s flabby ass) is because of the noxious, incompetent way that they rolled it out. Like every other policy rollout from the Trump Administration.

Bullshit.

You are a liar and you know this is pure garbage.

The reason the case was "lost" was because globalist traitors like John Roberts and the District Judge ignore the clearly written law and are looking for any excuse to keep our borders open and get more representation for democrats.

Trump is fighting a bunch of traitors that you are cheering for. We know you are on the democrats side.

Nobody believes you actually want the citizenship question on the census.

If you were who you say you were you would commit ritual seppuku.

So our resident Moby intro's a long-winded version of why this is a good idea, but does anyone doubt where he will wind up? Let's take a closer look:

Chuck: But in fact the main reason the case was lost (and now being shoved up Trump’s flabby ass) is because of the noxious, incompetent way that they rolled it out. Like every other policy rollout from the Trump Administration.

Was there ever any doubt? Note that he still assumes we are stupid enough to fall for his concern trolling. So arrogant in his ignorance. SMH.

PSA time:

Just add the question and forget it.

SDaly said...

Trump should order the question to appear on the Census and say:

"Sure, the Court has the nominal power to resolve questions of law, but I suspect that the its opinion was not the real reason that it ruled as it did, given the past statements of some of the Justices, so I don't think it should get the benefit of its power in this instance. That's a thing, right Chief Justice Roberts?"

Original Mike said...

"Just add the question and forget it."

Send it to the printers and let the courts continue to argue about whether it gets used.

David Begley said...

Easy legal solution. Put the citizenship question on the census form. Under the APA recite that reason is that since 10 Dem candidates for President want to extend free health care to illegal aliens, then the President needs to know how much that will cost.

The Dems then go to court seeking an injunction. Rocket docket and irreparable harm standard of proof. Trump wins.

And, yeah, Commerce Department screwed this up but it doesn’t help that there are political hack judges in the federal judiciary. Alito had it right.

David Begley said...

Correct. Just start printing the forms with the citizenship question. Make the Dems get an injunction to stop the presses. Trump wins.

David Begley said...

And print the forms in Nebraska. The printer would be a necessary party. Lawsuit would have to be in Nebraska. Trump wins.

Here in Canada, I know you gots to tell the Feds if you got the long form in 2016 your immigration (or non) status. Maybe the short form too. Does tend to silent (for a few seconds) the more-virtuous who pontificate on these matters from high towers, when they forget that little tidbit. Remind them after the pontification. In the silence that follows, you can sometimes hear kids playing merrily outside.

A sound that can act as a reminder of better days. Before the ceaseless bitterness/resentment had burrowed in.

Fen said...

Good point. We should not forget that the Romney/McCain approach would have been: "Gosh darn we just couldn't get it done. Not this hill. Maybe in 4 years if you donate to send us back to DC..."

Fuckers.

Even if Trump fails, there will be no Failure Theater. And Chuck's Establishment Wing of GOP is delusional if they think we will ever go back to that and their treacherous cuck ways.

It's going to be very interesting to see how the party re-aligns after the Trump Presidency. Can you just imagine the NeverTrumpers begging us to stand behind their RINO Cuck "for the good of the party"? LOL get fucked.

GatorNavy: "Sorry, but this Conway fellow does he have any bragging rights other than schtupping his wife who is more famous than he is?"

George Conwsy has zero real accomplishments and has delivered nothing in ensuring conservative principles win.

So naturally LLR Chuck identifies with him.

Kellyanne is a conservative fighter and has delivered the biggest political upset since Jackson and gave the republicans all 3 branches of govt.

Not to mention the first successful campaign run by a woman.

Needless to say Chuck despises and attacks Kellyanne daily.

Just like every other leftist.

Mr. Majestyk said...

Just say, "we want to know how many citizens there are." Isn't that a valid reason to include the question?

Fen said...

Oh I didn't realize we were talking about THAT Conway.

The spurned ex-husband who was married to the first woman run a presidential campaign, and who pulled off the most stunning upset in American political history.

I hear he hangs out with Michael Avanetti these days, gulping down dregs of bitterness.

I have decided that, despite never hearing one family story about it, that I am now a white Hispanic. My ancestors from Friesland, in the Netherlands, were subjects of the Spanish king when it was named the Spanish Netherlands. That went on for 100 or 150 years. I think that should be long enough to become a white Hispanic.

I am looking forward to the 2020 census.

Chuck said...

Oh I don’t care what you fucking jackasses think.

This is whatcha call a wedge issue. The Supreme Court has ruled. There isn’t a Circuit Court of Appeal in the nation that will not adhere to the ruling in Department of Commerce v New York.

So Althouse will have to choose between the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and a career in law on the one hand; and her Trump Cult readership on the other. This will be peculiarly rich.

You jag off non-lawyer fuckheads don’t get it. Trump is going to have to back down on this. Like his many bankruptcies, his lost libel cases, his threatened libel cases, his Trump University fraud case that he said he’d never settle, etc.

And when Trump concedes on the litigation outcome, I want to be around to rub your noses in it and particularly to press Althouse on what should have happened. Again; to drive that wedge in between Althouse and her readershipp.

I’ve already said that I think the Executive should have the power to add the question. There is nothing wrong with the question. But the court case was lost, and perhaps when it should never have been lost, because of the peculiar and remarkable communication incompetence of the Trump Administration. But no matter what you may think about that, the federal court ruling stands. Nobody is going to violate it. Only Trump is stupid enough to talk about the that.

John Roberts, a cuck just like you Chuck, knows fucking well that Commerce has the authority to add the question PERIOD. He even said so, but since he's a black-robed dictator he does whatever he wants to do.

Which of your favored pols would have put the question on the census in the first place? NOT ONE.

Drago said...

I havent seen Chuck this happy since the dems won the House in 2018.

Drago said...

Naturally, Chuck is wrong on the facts again..(and always in the leftists direction)

Here's a more sober and in point view of todays events:

"This is all fun and games for the left but the fact of the matter here is that Hazel is not only hostile to what the administration is doing, he’s irrelevant. The only question hanging out there is whether Justice and Commerce can cobble together a plausible rationale that will pass the smell test for 5 justices on the Supreme Court.

No one really cares about the lawsuit in Hazel’s court because he doesn’t have the authority to impose an injunction preventing the mailing of the forms or their processing as that is an enumerated responsibility of the Executive in the Constitution. If he did try to do that, he would be in direct conflict with the Supreme Court which would have already allowed the question into the Census. The only reason his injunction is still in place is because the case in his court was not the one heard by the Supreme Court.

The strategy in Hazel’s court is to try to throw up enough obstacles to the Census going out with the citizenship question in a timely fashion that the Administration will have to fold. If the Administration makes it across the hurdle set by SCOTUS, the odds of a nothingburger case like the one here derailing the Census approaches zero. The single important thing that happened here was that the government was given an immaterial deadline to declare its intentions. If it doesn’t, the only thing happens is that a bunch of lefties get to masturbate to fantasies of Trump getting a comeuppance when the case Hazel is overseeing restarts."

Well, lefties & LLR-lefties.

LOL: "immaterial deadline"

Its interesting to read what real non-lefty/obama lawyers have to say about things.

Lefty/dem/LLR "victories" are in short supply so its funny to watch our far left posters like Chuck celebrate like this.

Looks like Chuck will be hitting that bottle a little harder soon...

I never claimed that Trump was declaring martial law. Indeed, I’d claim that Trump was far from martial law, inasmuch as he wanted a very big Soviet/North Korean-style military parade, and the US military and civilian leadership told him he couldn’t have it. That’s not martial law, that’s presidential fecklessness.

Does anyone here even know what the issue is?

I listened to the oral arguments. Or about half of them. They were boring.

The Supremes don't have any question that they can ask the citizenship question. Even the people that are opposing asking it admit that there is nothing wrong with collecting the information.

The argument, from the opposers, is that asking the question will make the census less accurate. Dept of Commerce says no, it won't affect accuracy.

We've asked it on a bunch of previous censuses, it seems a perfectly legitimate question.

And, according to both sides and, it would seem the Supremes, is a perfectly legitimate question.

Except as it affects census count accuracy.

It was DoJ lawyer Josh Gardner who was on that he transcript, saying that he was trying to figure out what was going on. The lawyer, the plaintiffs, the District judge, and Commerce Secretary Ross all thought it was a done deal. Then Trump started Tweeting, apparently in response to something he saw on Fox News. And so the judge hauled them all into his chambers via a teleconference. In order to set a timetable for committing the SCOTUS ruling into a stipulated order in their case. Everyone had to interrupt their Independence Day holiday to respond to Trump’s Tweet.

You want all those services and money going to actual citizens, don't you? I don't know about you , but I pay a lot of money in taxes and I'd like to see whatever it is spent on goes to actual mericans. Shouldn't they be first in line?

During the course of my career I had to work many, many holidays. Big Fucking Deal.

Maybe they shouldn't have tried to weasel out of trying to not include the question in the first place if they didn't want their fourth of July ruined.

Fopdoodle lawyer more worried about enough leisure time for other fopdoodle lawyers than the pointless cuck on the Court.

Readering is worried about the politicization of the census? I guess she can't read the Spanish-language press. They're all for it--the other way, of course.

I can't read Spanish, true (sad).

Democratic Presidential candidate Cory Booker has caused controversy by crossing into Mexico to escort deported asylum seekers back over the border.
The Senator, 50, visited the Mexican border city Ciudad Juarez from El Paso, Texas, to help five women who had previously been sent back to Mexico.
He was joined by immigration rights attorneys and advocates to get the women, who are fleeing domestic violence, admitted back into the US.
However, he has been accused of breaking the law by critics who claimed he violated legislation which prohibits 'bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens into the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry'.

readering, as always, projects the Leftist motivation onto the other.
The other in this case is Americans who would like to determine its own destiny.
The other does not want open borders to change the demographics of the nation.

We see what you want: power over the other.

Readering, I’m cool with you for admitting that. 👍

"We know the proposed citizenship question is politically motivated for sure."

No more so than removing the question in the first place. Maybe less. I can certainly see why having the question on the census is superior to not having it, without any "political" considerations.

So the SC now decides on what is or is not printed?

Since Roberts punted, not forbidding but sending it back down the chain, obviously there is some validity to Trump's claim.

So print the questionnaire WITH the question and you can instruct the Census takers on whether to ASK the question or not.

Easy peasy.
