"The US Supreme Court’s ruling today against the inclusion of a citizenship question on the US 2020 census is a sneaky way for the Republican right wing majority to have the best of both worlds. ... "So, [Roberts] joined the “liberal” minority, but with a hitch: His opinion simply said that Ross must come up with a better excuse than the one he has used so far.
