Department of Justice shaking up legal team on census case

The legal team coordinating efforts to include a controversial citizenship question on the 2020 census will undergo a major shakeup, with a new group of political and career attorneys expected to replace the current team, a Department of Justice official told ABC News.

The news comes as President Donald Trump has doubled down on his demands that the question be included on the 2020 census after the Supreme Court blocked the administration’s previous efforts, with Chief Justice John Roberts describing their initial rationale as"contrived.” "The Attorney General appreciates that service, thanks them for their work on these important matters, and is confident that the new team will carry on in the same exemplary fashion as the cases progress,” the statement continued.

Congressman from NY hahahahaha shocker

Like this clown has a say. The money has already been appropriated. They stopped printing and will continue when they are told to. Another democrat that supports illegals over Americans.

Odd how it wasn't a problem before Obama can't along to remove it.

“Controversial” when majority want it done? 🤦🏽‍♀️

Why is it controversial to count how many Americans and non America’s are in our country... cause the left is trying to find a new base. That’s why. locksofknowledge

washingtonpost nytimes maddow NicolleDWallace wolfblitzer Lawrence The turn over in the Trump Administration is just incredible. Now he is shaking up the Justice Department to see if someone can come up with a better reason for the citizenship question on the census.

How much do they have to donate to be on the team?

Trump's motto, let's see how much money they let me waste before they hold me accountable.

Controversial? You are the enemy

Being a citizen should NEVER be controversial.

Gotta bring in people with lower ethical standard. Understand. Maduro had to do the same thing. Sucks when you have people working for you with morals and dedication and principles to the law. SenatorLankford JimInhofe, as you’ve sold your souls, gotta talk these guys down.

So it’s controversial to ask if you are here legally? God this country is going to hell.

You see, many people don’t even know the consequences of adding this question. US CENSUS will get biased results. It could create major problems many people are not slightly aware of, unless you have studied what it takes to realize this is wrong! I hope a sane person stop Trump

It was on the 2000 uscensusbureau and Obama removed it in 2010 with SC approval so POTUS is adding it back per 14 amendment! SecretaryRoss TheJusticeDept

It’s not controversial, democrats are just anti-America

They should all be disbarred for even looking for a way around the law. Nobody w/integrity would do twitlers bidding.

As usual it doesn't matter what the law or the courts say if someone will not give realDonaldTrump what he wants they will be gone till he finds someone who will. Of course that is easy with the DOJ since his lap dog BassettHoundBarr is in charge.

They are bringing in a new legal team because noone on the current team of lawyers could figure out a way to make a constitutional case to the supreme court to win a ruling in favour of the inclusion of the citizenship question on the census.

How are they going to get away with lying about the month of Junes deadline?This administration keeps breaking all the rules and has been successful of not being held accountable for their actions. Why is that? “Our democracy is hypocrisy” -Malcolm X

Again- the last desperate gasps of a dying breed! They can not see the inevitable ...they get weaker every day... the end of their domination of society is in full view, and they are going out fighting with their dying breathe.

“ Controversial” citizenship question? SMH

I am of the opinion that a lot of crooked Republican lawyers should be did barred, convicted, & incarcerated.

Man racism and bigotry working overtime, terrified of brown people.

LowBarr

They're filling the team up with Trump sycophants.
