 This myopic Supreme Court will probably rule the wrong way.

Everyone and their mother knows this is going to be a 5-4 conservative decision.

SCOTUS should just skip the oral arguments from here on out and just dole out the decisions.

As it should be. Whether or not it's good policy, it's certainly constitutional.

That must be because everyone believes we have a Supreme Court with nine politically-minded Justices instead of the nine most highly objective interpreters of law in the country.

Everyone is right.

Why is this a bad thing? It’s not  like there’s anything to hide or will have any bad affect on our citizens for answering a census question

Even though the challenge wasn't based on constitutionality of putting the question on the Census, but rather the Commerce Department and Wilbur Ross violating multiple laws regarding the process in which they went about it their attempts to add the question.

Still it won't matter, the Republican Supreme Court will do what they please.

Roberts took Kennedy slot as the maverick. Should a Dem majority emerges, he will take up PR Statehood, Holiday for voting which will go through reconciliation with campaign finance reform. He will side with liberals except for ban on super Pac
