TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER TO LEGALLY BYPASS SUPREME COURT ON THE CENSUS




7/12/2019

Author: 777 Media Source



   On Thursday, President Trump announced that he would issue an executive order to get around the Supreme Court ruling that shot down his administration's quest for a citizenship question on the 2020 census.

  While much of the mainstream media was expecting President Trump to issue an executive order that would illegally add the citizenship question to the census, Attorney General Bill Barr reaffirmed that,

    "This has never been under consideration."

    Rather than fight the lengthy court battle that would assuredly conclude in not getting the information the administration wants; they decided to issue an executive order that directs the Commerce Department to take action. The Commerce Department is now allowed to obtain data on American citizenship through numerous means including the Department of Homeland Security as well as the Social Security Administration.

   The Census Bureau can already collect citizenship records from the IRS, Social Security Administration, the State Department, and the US Citizenship and Immigration services. The idea is to combine all of the records from each department to sort out who is and isn't a citizen in the United States without having to directly ask the question on the next census.

   Beyond avoiding the court battle the Trump administration can also save a decent amount of taxpayer dollars by not amending the census forms directly. The cost of adding the question to the census could be over $27 million rather than about $2 million to collect all the records from the various agencies.

   Another positive to the executive order, according to the administration is that they will get more complete and informative data from the current records they have on file rather than ask the citizenship question on the census. The Census Bureau has told the administration that asking the citizenship question could make illegal immigrants avoid participation in the census, thus leading to a less accurate count.

   Even though President Trump had to go an alternate route to get the information they want, he made sure to let his supporters know that,

     "Today we are here to tell you that we are not backing down in our effort to determine the citizenship status of the United States population."

    Also that, "We will leave no stone unturned."

   It's too soon to tell if this is a win for the Trump team or for the Democrats. The only thing that is for certain is that regardless of what the left throws Trump's way, he can always spin it back and turn it into a win for him and a win for his base.

Epstein Trial Set for Next June - "Over 1 Million Documents in Evidence"; Possible Suicide Attempt and Other Updates U.S. District Judge Richard Berman tentatively set the date for June 8th, but may revisit the subject at a later time. This comes a week after Epstein allegedly attempted suicide, although some sources say it may have been an attempt by Epstein to get a transfer to another facility, others say it may have been an assault on Epstein. The judge has denied bail and is also not allowing Epstein to remain under house arrest at his 77 million dollar NYC apartment, even though Epstein offered to pay for the security to keep him there, due to a recent ruling . More recently, information has been coming out regarding Epstein's apparent fascination with transhumanism, or as is cited, a desire to "seed" many women with his DNA and the DNA of Nobel laureates to 'strengthen the human gene pool.' As well, we are hearing more about his ch

Attorney General Barr Overturns Board of Immigration Appeals

A new ruling has come into play by U.S. Attorney General William Barr, which is anticipated to prevent tens of thousands of migrants from seeking asylum under the justification of family ties. Barr is now saying that it is not enough to qualify for asylum if you are simply a family member of someone being targeted by gangs.   The case highlighted on Monday by the Justice Department is known as Matter L-E-A and is reportedly about the son of a man “who owned a store targeted by a local drug cartel.” The son, who is a Mexican citizen, entered the US illegally seeking asylum twice. His last entrance was in 2011. Barr ended up overturning the asylum decision made by the Board of Immigration Appeals stating the board had “improperly recognized” the father’s immediate family member as a “ particular social group.” Barr’s argument was that “virtually every alien” would be able to claim asylum under those terms and in conclusion he stated, “ While the Board has recognized certain

Clinton Appointed Judge Throws DNC Lawsuit Out the Window — Witch Hunt Now Put to Bed

A monkey wrench was thrown in the works for the Democrats on Tuesday. As they aggressively pursue the Trump team and it’s possible ties to Russia, a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) against primary members of the campaign and WikiLeaks. The lawsuit involved hacked DNC documents in which the judge stated the Trump campaign members “did not participate in any wrongdoing in obtaining the materials in the first place” thus relieving them from any legal responsibility for publicizing the information. In a tweet President Trump noted that the judge who dismissed the case, John Koeltl, was appointed by Bill Clinton and stated, “... vindication & exoneration from the Russian, WikiLeaks and every other form of HOAX perpetrated by the DNC, Radial Democrats and others. This is really big “stuff” especially coming from a highly respected judge who was appointed by President Clinton.  The Witch Hunt Ends!” In court filings, the DNC decla
