Why don’t we just declare the entire world’s population to be
American citizens and Democrats? Save a lot of squabbling down the road.

6-3 Conservative Majority? Whoever wrote this article actually believes John Roberts is on our side?

Since Representatives are elected by citizens, it make a clear argument that only citizens be counted.....
Everyone else has some sort of government attachment elsewhere and an embassy etc to represent them.....

I hope to be wrong, but, I predict a ruling against omitting illegal aliens. And the liberal reasoning will be that, #1, we can’t specifically identify who is here illegally, and #2, people who are here illegally, since they are in fact here, deserve congressional representation. And #3, since the census counts are used for so many purposes, it would be discrimination to pull out non- citizens for this one specific purpose.

Flame away. I hope I am wrong, but I think the above could be the reasoning used to include illegals and all non citizens in the apportionment numbers.

I listened to the SCOTUS hearing last night.

At one point Roberts cut off Alito who was asking six questions to point out the silliness of counting people who are illegally in the USA:

1. Is a person on a 90 day tourist visa counted? Answer NO.
2. Is a person who overstays a 90 day tourist visa counted? Answer YES.

At that point Roberts cut off Alito and went to the next justice.

I believe we all know the reason Roberts cut off Alito. Roberts did not want to have a soundbite the media would use if they had all six questions and answers.

Talk about voter disenfranchisement. Every Congressman a cluster of illegals get, American citizens are deprived of representation in Congress.

Non citizens should have no impact on our nation, except by
leaving.

Criminal Migrants do not need representation, they need deportation.

Roberts is perhaps the most protected person in the country. The deepstate owns him. To have a RINO justice, and be able to control every vote, is priceless to the deepstate. They take no chances on his personal safety.

Illegals are stealing power from Americans. Causing some states to be under represented. Also with that power they can push their agenda with their congressmen. Which has always proven detrimental to American citizens.

Counting them is defacto granting them a form of citizenship.
