Good morning from New York.

A federal judge issues his ruling on Jeffrey Epstein’s bail application in court at 11:30 a.m. EDT.

Michael Cohen’s search warrant materials related to a closed campaign-finance probe to be unsealed at 11 a.m.

Covering both live for @CourthouseNews.
@CourthouseNews You're going to want some background on where things stand in both cases. This story on Epstein's passport has been updated for yesterday's revelations.

courthousenews.com/epstein-memos-…

Here's my write-up of Judge Pauley's order to unseal campaign-finance info:

courthousenews.com/sunlight-comin…
@CourthouseNews Remember: The search warrant materials were initially unsealed in March--specifically, eight documents and 895 pages.

So, how can reporters sift through them within 30 minutes before other major breaking news?

Only small portions remain redacted, and those will be lifted.

JUST IN: Prosecutors respond to Jeffrey Epstein’s excuse for why he had an Austrian passport.

Epstein said he never used it, but it had “numerous ingress and egress stamps,” including for France, Spain, the UK, and Saudi Arabia in the 80s. cc: @CourthouseNews
More specifically, Epstein’s attorneys hedged that the government had no evidence their client used the passport.

The government just responded, in sum and substance, “Uh, yeah we do.”

Not posting the doc because that’s the whole thing.
To be absolutely clear:

Epstein's attorneys heavily implied that the passport was a decoy that was not used, suggesting the gov't lack evidence to the contrary--but stopped short of *saying* it was not used.

Prosecutors just called that bluff.

Remarks by Attorney General William P. Barr on Census Citizenship Question

Thank you, Mr. President, and congratulations on today’s Executive Order, which will ensure that we finally have an accurate understanding of how many citizens and non-citizens live in our country.
As the Supreme Court recognized, it would be perfectly lawful for the federal government to ask on the census whether individuals are citizens of the United States.   It is entirely reasonable to want to know how many citizens and non-citizens there are in the United States.

@TheJusticeDept @CommerceGov @uscensusbureau

This is not rocket science, friends.

Asking the #citizenship #question is #necessary for the #federal #government to #fulfill its #role in #advising #Congress regarding #enforcement of the #constitutional #right to #vote.
So it is #perplexing to read #newsreports that @TheJusticeDept is searching for a #path to #inclusion of the #citizenship #question.

Why is this a #puzzle for you?
The @uscensusbureau must do the best it can to accurate #ascertain #both the #number of #persons and the #number of #citizens.

In a call with a federal judge hours ago a DOJ attorney said:

“The tweet this morning was the first I had heard of the President’s position … I have confirmed that the Census Bureau is continuing with the process of printing the questionnaire without a citizenship question”

Only in U.S. is it controversial to have a citizenship question on the #census—one we’ve had consistently since 1820 (and census still asks it today on the annual American Community Survey): dailysign.al/2Dmw2kU
Even the UN—the left’s favorite model institution—recommends a citizenship question in its manual on how to conduct a census.

Countries like Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Mexico all ask. Are they problematic? bit.ly/2K2kpVm
On 4/23 #SCOTUS is hearing arguments on the citizenship question for #2020Census—common sense and the Constitution say the question should be allowed. dailysign.al/2Dmw2kU

JUST IN: Federal judge in New York rules Commerce Dept cannot insert citizenship question on 2020 Census, that in trying to add it, Sec. Ross violated the Administrative Procedure Act.
Judge Jesse Furman's opinion says Ross's stated rationale for asking about citizenship -- to better enforce the Voting Rights Act -- is not backed up by the record. Instead, Furman says Ross had an "anxious desire" to insert the Q for unknown, pretextual reasons.
Furman says those who brought this case have "proved" that a citizenship question in the 2020 Census would lead to an undercount of noncitizen and Hispanic households.
