BREAKING: Census Bureau official Christa Jones privately contacted GOP strategist Thomas Hofeller about #CitizenshipQuestion in 2015, according to email from court filing by @MALDEF, @AAAJ_AAJC, @CovingtonLLP. Plaintiffs argue this shows link between Hofeller & commerce secretary
Here’s my write-up on the latest revelation about the #CitizenshipQuestion from the hard drives of the late GOP redistricting strategist Thomas Hofeller👇

3. UPDATE: @uscensusbureau spokesperson Michael Cook and @TheJusticeDept spokesperson Kelly Laco both declined to comment on the #CitizenshipQuestion plaintiffs' latest court filing in Maryland about Thomas Hofeller & Christa Jones.
@uscensusbureau @TheJusticeDept 4. CORRECTION: Bc of incorrect info on @uscensusbureau's website, a previous version of my story incorrectly said Christa Jones serves as chief of staff to the bureau's director. In fact, Jones is serving as chief of staff to Deputy Director Ron Jarmin👇

5. @CommerceGov spokesperson Kevin Manning compared plaintiffs' claims about Thomas Hofeller & Christa Jones to "conspiracy theories" that are "outlandish & should be disregarded,” emphasizing Hofeller/his views were not part of commerce secretary’s #CitizenshipQuestion decision

Hello from Day 30 of El Chapo’s trial.

Alex Cifuentes is back on the witness stand for more cross-examination. My story on his claim yesterday that Chapo paid a $100 million bribe to @EPN, among other stunning allegations…

news.vice.com/en_us/article/…
The government filed a sealed motion last night to limit cross-examination of witness. Coming on the heels of yesterday's testimony about presidential bribery, we can guess what it's about…
Lost amid the craziness yesterday was some fascinating testimony by Alex Cifuentes about El Chapo's business in Canada.

We heard how the cartel planned to buy homes on Lake Champlain to smuggle drugs by boat, but it seems most of the business was done in Vancouver BC.

BREAKING: Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein denies a NYT report that he suggested last year he secretly record Trump to expose chaos in the administration. According to the Times Rosenstein also floated the idea of trying to remove Trump through the 25th Amendment. apnews.com/e84a4acdb42641…
Rod Rosenstein should know better than to joke about something like the 25th Amendment. Especially in the era of Trump.
McCabe memos say Rosenstein considered secretly recording Trump
