Why is this in the courts? A plaintiff? Since when do illegal aliens have standing?

Absolute anarchy.

it was posted last week she walks a mile a day. She started 7 days ago, so now she’s 7 miles from home and no one can find her. (acknowledging Rodney Dangerfield)

Every region with a collective of illegal, foreign invaders being counted will be assigned more House of Reps.

Apportionment is based on the headcount, not if those counted are citizens, permanent residents, or illegals. The left fears the citizenship question because they believe illegals will choose not to be counted rather than answering truthfully.

[This entire illegals thing is ONLY and ALL ABOUT POWER.]

It’s more than that. Federal dollars are based on population as well as the number of congressional seats that are given to a state.

Several blue states have lost 1000s and are propping up their numbers with illegals.

Thew premise of the suit is absolutely stupid. People won't participate if there is a citizenship question.

But it falls on its face.

First, it only asks if you are a citizen.l It does NOT ask whether you are a legal alien or ILLEGAL alien. It's a yes or no.

The Dems are claiming ALL aliens will not participate in the census and of course that would skew the number of reps.

I doubt illegals have participated in the census of the past. One will only know the result AFTER the census.

The question will be on the next census. It never should have been taken off.

This news came out last night. Unfortunately it is just a small step in getting around the obstructions.

We don’t know if or when the USSC will take a peak at this.

they should decline and let this ruling stand. Ridiculous challenge.

There’s a reason why the democrats don’t want this. They don’t want you to know how much they have allowed people to come into the country and live off your money.

"...First, it only asks if you are a citizen.

That, IMHO, is the only question that needs asking...

Sufficient to reduce the number of RATS in the House..

Of course it’s not the last word. It’s not even the last word from this judge. It’s the denial of a preliminary injunction. It only means the court won’t “freeze” the situation right this minute pending the final decision

There are constantly posts on FR framed as “Declarations of Victory” in court proceedings where it’s just the first inning of the ballgame. This is one of them.

There was a time not long ago when every detail of our lives wasn’t decided by “federal judges.” This is our ruination.

When I was young, I think I was blissfully unaware we even had federal judges. They toiled in obscurity as it should be.

Nice to see a federal judge upholding the Constitution, instead of subverting it. Needs to happen more often.

Appointed by President Trump, and she dated Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

I’m going over to Twitter to watch the splodey heads...
*********************************************
And this is why it is important to get constitutional conservative judges appointed even at the District Court level.

BOTH the Senate and President Trump need to get cracking to QUICKLY fill the MANY VACANCIES on US federal judgeships. There are 149 vacancies for which there are only 60 having nominees pending. That leaves 89 VACANT federal judgeships for which Trump has not yet submitted nominees.

https://www.uscourts.gov/judges-judgeships/judicial-vacancies/current-judicial-vacancies

And there are 21 other judgeships where near-future vacancies are known. These also need nominations in the pipeline.

Will Ruthie be opining on the matter?


You bet she will, unless she’s been declared legally dead!
