BREAKING: DOJ Says It’s Been ‘Instructed’ To Try Get Citizenship Question Back On Census | Talking Points Memo

DOJ is humoring the Orange Buffoon. The equal protection cases attacking Trump’s malignant citizenship question will slowly move forward. The Trump regime will lose, given the recent information the question was added for cynical political reasons to undercount. The forms without the question then get printed.

If we had a real AG, and not Trump henchman Barr, this charade wouldn’t be occurring.

Hunt said the plan, if the government goes down that route, is to go directly to the Supreme Court to get instructions on how to streamline future proceedings over its efforts to re-add the question.

Since when did it become the job of the judicial branch to provide instructions for how the executive branch achieves the executive’s goals? I thought they just called balls and strikes.

The fireworks exclusion area for trump’s rally is literally right behind the VIP section.

I was at one celebration where falling embers injured my sister, and at another where one firework went sideways and hit a parked car.

Is it normally legal to have fireworks so close to the viewing area?

Every branch of the government is all the same now, just one big happy family.

Welp, he’s all in. If he thinks the initial loss was bad, the upcoming loss will be a thermonuclear explosion.

At first glance I almost thought that was Pete Buttigieg! :slight_smile:

A lawyer with a moron for a client has to do what the moron wants. That doesn’t make the lawyer a moron. It just makes him a lawyer with a moron for a client.

Then that AG would be fired, and he’d find one that would do what he wanted.

So that night (July 3) I saw the whole infield of a racetrack engulfed in ground exploding flames.

The next night we went to the coast for the fourth, and the fireworks were being launched from an island, and it happened again. Just a conflagration of patriotic hell. Twice in two days,

When he mounted the horse he broke its back, so he didn’t really ride in on it. I feel sorry for the horse.

In other words, Hey Roberts, how much money to do what I want?

They’re probably going to use the direct method, and tell John Roberts they know where his grandkids go to school.

PS: I buy printing for a living. And even though this job will be a one-color government form job – and the printer has done a ton of those jobs in the past – that deadline ain’t moving. At this quantity and with this timing, they must be pulling their hair out.
