The President is expected to issue an executive action ordering data on citizenship to be collected by means other than the US census, two sources say

These people said Trump is expected to table his effort to add a question about citizenship status to the 2020 census, setting aside his demands last week to continue pursuing the issue despite a Supreme Court order blocking it. Trump tweeted Thursday morning he would be holding a press conference in the Rose Garden in the afternoon about"the census and citizenship." Attorney General William Barr will participate in the event, according to Justice Department spokesperson Kelly Laco.

The Trump administration initially announced printing would go forward without the citizenship question. Government attorneys had asserted to the courts that the printing process -- either with or without the question -- needed to begin on July 1 to avoid extra costs. That approach was thrown into disarray when Trump abruptly changed course last week, ordering officials to find another way to add the question -- something the Supreme Court left the door open to in its ruling.

If the trade war between US and China deteriorates into Taiwan strait military competition, all that arms itself isn’t defense.

This guy is unbelievable ! Biggest racist in the White House in 70 yrs.The sooner he's gone, the better.

I demand his fuc n taxes

The US Census Bureau is mot really a!part of the gov't but it's own entity and the only ace that can legally and truly answer a citizenship question. Trump has no authority to force it. SMDH

I am not answering without the question.

The president is tripping. As he is influenced by extraordinary ultra right. This is gone too far . Just think . If EUR AVE DA WAS MEA INGFULL , BY NOW IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FULFILLED, such as John Bolten ,who wants to go to war w Iran . Insane

So, what's is plan? Does he want to send ICE from door to door?

CNNSitRoom I believe the American government has lost its mind, this is madness of the highest level. O my God what is happening, The hands of time has ticked back to a dark time.

CNNSitRoom Smart, just have the executive branch find out how many citizens and non-citizens are in the USA.

JuliePorterj4 EO by Obama to remove the question = EO by Trump to reinstate the question. 🇺🇸

King trumpass wants his own gestapo.

I wake up every day and remind myself that I wasn’t dreaming; realDonaldTrump is actually, I mean really, really is the President of the United States of America. What a tragic situation.

So in other words, he will do nothing

No, He's defying the Supreme Court!! He's breaking the law!! Why doesn't CNN report the truth 😲🤤😱

I’ve learned recently, that “I do not recall” is a perfectly acceptable answer to any serious government inquiry

I'm a citizen as much as he is an🐖

Why do we even have Legislative and Judicial branches?

Poof 🤯Air went out that angry narcissistic lawless balloon 🎈🤬

You mean to put the question back on the census? I get asked this question by so many surveys, but the government isn’t allowed to?

Gestapo on steroids

I say, as a citizen, don't cooperate with this.

After his own conservative supreme court judges rejected it. DictatorTrump DemocracyDies

Hell., we all want to know how the Nazi Trumps got to America from Germany.

Trump doesn’t respect our government. He attacks our Intelligent Agencies, Congress, freedom of speech, the right to peacefully protest, judges and now the Supreme Court. This makes the President of the United States a dangerous man.

Sounds like some Gestapo shit to me

What is his problem, I can guess he just wants to be a Dictader. Just line them up and put a chip in there body. That way he knows who's who, where there at and what there doing.

Trump’s way of admitting defeat.

Parscale’s stringy chin hairs...

Agreed US census.

He will use ICE to conduct house to house count.

Wow, above the law indeed, America is in a mess

His hate runs deep 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Is this a WH issued image? Or is CNN photoshopping it themselves?

Basically he's signing an executive order to do nothing. There is no other way to get citizenship information legally.

Is he going to institute a new gestapo to ask for our papers when we want to go from city to city?

Is Der Furor going to have his Brown Shirt thugs collect it? Or perhaps his GICEstapo agents?

U know this just means every excuse his lawyers tried to come up with to put it on the census was bullshit and he just wants to know who r not citizens so he can deport them all. He has made that abundantly clear

good luck with that. Why would anyone respond?

It is important to split a society if you want to control and manipulate... Erdogan has his Gülenists, Hitler had the Jews...

Does one have to fill in the forms?

This is not only about citizenship. People think! What will it take?

I wish this was unbelievable.

I'll pass.

Looks like the NSA will be around a while longer.

By other means?

Are militia will go door to door on Seek and Destroy mission's to help Trump find non citizen's!

Why would you not want to know who’s living here?

Twitter polls FTW

Another one in the Loss column for Donald. Thankfully we still have some semblance of checks and balances.
