1. Buried in the legal filings of the 2020 Census case is PROOF that the Department of Justice is lying about how this scheme was hatched.

This gets in the weeds a bit but stick with me.

It's worth it.

2. To understand what is happening, you have to understand the information flow.

Tom Hofeller, who was on the RNC payroll, is the one who hatched the scheme to rig the 2020 census.

He was communicating with Mark Neuman, an informal adviser to the Commerce Department.

3. Neuman was communicating w/Jason Gore, the DOJ official who crafted the official justification for rigging the census.

Gore testified in the case that HE DRAFTED the letter laying out the justification himself.

The DOJ claims this is COMPLETELY UNCONNECTED TO Neuman/Hofeller

4. But a close reading of the documents in the case show that this is a lie. The letter drafted by Neuman (left) contains the virtually the EXACT SAME conclusion as the official letter drafted by Gore (right) (and signed by General Counsel Arthur Gary)

5. The phrase "Please let me know if you have any questions about this letter or wish to discuss" is the fingerprint

If you Google it, there are only 8 results and they are ALL this letter about the Census from DOJ

They had the Neuman letter and used it. google.com/search?ei=1eD3…

6. Misrepresenting facts to the court is a BFD. They shouldn't be allowed to get away w/this. This is a political plot that could change US politics for decades
