Kasparian: Because it's in the constitution, the United States constitution, the supreme court ruled on this in 2019, and they ruled against Trump
Counting everyone is important in subtle ways, because census data are used for dozens of different reasons in capacity planning for all kinds of things. All people use resources and occupy space regardless of their legal status. Not counting them doesnโt make them disappear.

In 2016, Ghislaine Maxwell falsely stated, under oath, that she was not aware that Jeffrey Epstein recruited underage girls for sex (you know, the ones she was actually recruiting on his behalf). She was charged with two counts of perjury for this.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
