US High Court Blocks Citizenship Question on Census



It is now more than evident Bush appointee, and ObamaCare delivering Chief Justice John Roberts should be addressed as Chief Justice John McRoberts.



I usually circle in red but used blue in this case for obvious reasons.



U.S. President Donald Trump responded Thursday to the Supreme Court’s decision to block his administration's effort to add a citizenship question to the upcoming U.S. census by saying he’d asked his lawyers whether there was a way to delay the nationwide head count. 

In a tweet hours after the court announced its decision, Trump said it "seems totally ridiculous" that the government could not question people about their citizenship on the census, which takes place once every 10 years. 

The Supreme Court ruled the administration's explanation — that the citizenship question was meant to better enforce the Voting Rights Act — was "more of a distraction" from the issue than an explanation. 

Opponents of the citizenship question say it would intimidate noncitizens into not answering the census, ultimately leaving them underrepresented in Congress. 

(Read the above sentence again. It's f-ing laughable!!!)

Chief Justice John Roberts joined the court’s liberal justices in the 5-4 ruling.
