Supreme Court slaps down Trump’s citizenship Census question in surprise ruling
- Thread starter Banjo
- Start date
This administration is so incompetent. they couldn't get anything done for 2 years with a full GOP government and now they are failing to even get their agenda through the most conservative Supreme Court. MAGA, my ass.
This ruling was interesting in that conservative justices normally balk at pretext but the corrupted intent was so obvious that Roberts said hold up a second the rationale the Trump government is using doesn’t even make sense on its face.
It was a compromise at the end of the day. I can understand why Roberts didn’t want to make a landmark ruling based on something so obviously poisonous and just said come back when you have an honest reason for subverting standing process.

Roberts is challenging Earl Warren as the worst Supreme Court pick by a republican president ever. Since he comes from Chicago and its cesspool of corruption, I suspect the dems have some extremely damaging blackmail material on him and pull it out at crucial times, like his idiotic Obamacare decision and now this clear infringement of Separation of Powers.
Thanks again Bush.
Thanks again Bush.
shut the fuck up.
"In a dissenting opinion, Thomas wrote that, "For the first time ever, the court invalidates an agency action solely because it questions the sincerity of the agency's otherwise adequate rationale."
"This conclusion is extraordinary," he wrote. "The court engages in an unauthorized inquiry into evidence not properly before us to reach an unsupported conclusion." "

The Census asks all kinds of intrusive questions but something as basic as citizenship is off limits? Add that to the growing pile of stuff that makes no sense.

Ryan James GirduskyVerified account@RyanGirdusky- I really don’t understand why we have a hard July deadline for the Census.... we can bomb a country in under 5 minutes but to fill out and mail 100 million forms it takes 6 months?

In solo opinion in census case, Alito says there should be no APA review of Secretary's decision: "To put the point bluntly, the Federal Judiciary has no authority to stick its nose into the question whether it is good policy to include a citizenship question on the census."

Steve MilloyVerified account@JunkScience 2h2 hours agoNot sure why SCOTUS didn't stop here. Why does the President have to justify further to a judge the need to know how many citizens we have? The reasoning is self-evident and is the purpose of the census.pic.twitter.com/WRKvA6oqNv
