It appears that Roberts is a wholly owned asset of the Deep State. He’s not following the Constitution, he’s following orders.

Did anyone hear of a single Republican complaining about Obamas removing of the question?

Indeed! There is one easy and effective way around this entire debacle: Just print up the year 2000 census forms with a new date and be done with this nonsense.

The year 2000 census was legitimate and there were no legal issues then with a citizenship question.

Nope. It was a non-event.

This article presents the best analysis of the Census Question case and the flaws in the majority opinion. Roberts joined with the 4 usual suspects to issue an incoherent and extra judicial opinion. Justice Thomas summarized it clearly and succiently: Asking the question is constitutional and within the authority of the Secretary of Commerce to decide if it should be included in the 2020 Census. At that point, the judicial review should have been over.

The goal of this lawsuit on the part of the plantiffs and the corrupt district judges who supported this action was to run out the clock so that the Administration could not do a legal and constitutional addition to the Census that the Democrats wanted stopped for partisan reasons. They won thanks to the Chief Justice’s interference with the political and legal process.

Shifty John Roberts has something to hide,
He says “look, a squirrel”, “ a tax”, or “ intent”;
Artfully claiming it’s all bona fide,
With services rendered, his master’s content.

the court majority argued that it thought the administration’s stated rationale for reinstating the question was disingenuous

Doesn't the enemy of an action always hold that the advocate for the action is acting disingenuously? That's standard fare. Roberts only confirms his personal bias and willfully permits it to sway the mind of the SCOTUS. That is ... in a phrase ... "judicial tyranny". Roberts is, quite literally, now a "black-robed tyrant".

Why didn’t the supreme court interpret political intent when Obama removed it from the census?

Obama didn't remove it.

In 2005 the Census Bureau officially adopted the American Community Survey (ACS), which has the citizenship question, as the replacement for the long form, which also had the question.

Obama wasn't even running yet.

Yes Roberts DOES have something to hide. He illegally adopted two children from Ireland which does NOT allow non-citizens to adopt children. It involved lying and mail fraud - many felonies. The NY Times first posted the story then stopped talking about it. They knew it was better to have him in office so they could blackmail him. All of this is true and Roberts should be impeached and removed.

trump should divulge all this information and free Roberts up to be objective.

"John Roberts is keenly interested in protecting the SCOTUS as an institution..."

Roberts has long insisted that the courts should not be and are not political.
Recall his ridiculous statement to President Trump that there are no Obama judges, or Clinton judges, but only justices who are trying to follow the law.

Roberts sounded like the complete fool he is...he has done more to politicize the SCOTUS than any chief justice in history. He is a fraud and an embarrassment to America.

there is speculation that the blackmail is connected to the illegal adoption but is about a deeper more sinister crime associated to the adoption.

It’s obvious they have dirt on Roberts. Some REAL journalists should do some investigation going back to when he abruptly changed on obamacare.
