The Halls of Montezuma are in Mexico City and the war in which the phase “Halls of Montezuma” refer to was the Mexican War of 1847. The “Shores of Tripoli” refers the the USMC involvement in the “Barbary Wars” to fight the pirates in Libya.

Why can an idiot judge in hawaii stop an executive order?

Uh, because we let them. They have absolutely no authority to rule on immigration other than the President lets them. What happened to his great love for Jackson?

The aliens that don’t complete it definitely won’t be counted.

Remember when Bill and Hillary wanted to do the census by statistical analysis? No need to count just guesses by guys in white coats and pocket protectors.

I believe the correct path lies in this article by Thomas Lifson, posted here three days ago, How President Trump can use 14th Amendment to put citizenship question back on the 2020 Census.

David B. Rivkin, Jr. and Gilson B. Gray write in the Wall Street Journal:
Section 2 of the 14th Amendment provides that if a state denies the franchise to anyone eligible to vote, its allotment of House seats shall be "reduced in the proportion which the number of such ... citizens shall bear to the whole number of ... citizens ... in such state." This language is absolute and mandatory. Compliance is impossible without counting how many citizens live in each state.
Here is how the president — a man who loves winning — wins:

The president should issue an executive order stating that, to comply with the requirements of Section 2 of the 14th Amendment, the citizenship question will be added to the 2020 census. In addition, he can order the Commerce Department to undertake, on an emergency basis, a new Census Act rulemaking.

“Remember when Bill and Hillary wanted to do the census by statistical analysis?”

I had forgotten that. Thanks for the reminder. I don’t remember how they tried justified it. Cost, maybe?

Should not really have been all that hard since the question was on the census until the idiot clean negro took it off. Never heard a peep from the USSC when he did that why should they have a damn thing to say about it now?

In a somewhat related matter, I’d like to try to understand why democrap party members continue to vote for their politicians who would rather have them pay to take care of millions of illegals instead of working to make a better life for themselves. Brain dead is all I can figure.

Speaking to reporters after a scheduled stop at a federal prison, Barr said, “I think over the next day or two you’ll see what approach we’re taking and I think it does provide a pathway for getting the question on the census.”

Get it on the census form and then we can talk.

And again, just because it's on the form doesn't mean people will answer it. You can expect the Democrats to launch a full bore campaign to get that information out.

Even Vespa at Townhall had to get this Untruth dig in:

“The Trump White House appeared to cave on issuing the census without the question but changed course hours later.”

No, Trump did not cave. Some idiots thought again they knew better than Trump and shot their mouths off.

When the Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out demons as the work of Beelzebub, Jesus stated “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” - and I see more uniformity in the demon party (except for ‘The Four’), than our side. Amazing.

dumb people on FR say Barr is a deep state tool

Splendid job explaining why they're wrong, Chief.

Maybe you should consider becoming a leftist since you like throwing insults around instead of substance.

Not sure if this is a bug deal anyway. Why would a a person here in the US illegally, complete a census survey? Even if they did, they would likely provide false information.

Good point.

They’re here illegally now so they already demonstrated they don’t give a rat’s @$$ about U.S. law. Chances are pretty good each one of them has broken several Federal and state laws along the way, with not a shred of guilt.

Why would they chance a knock on the door by ICE?

You may wish to re-read Section 2 of the 14th Amendment. Not only does it call for a reduction in representation based on non-citizenry, but also of those convicted of crimes. Has that been legislated? Those governors restoring voting rights by executive action or even state constitutions may actually be in violation of the U.S. Constitution.

... the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
