@TheJusticeDept @uscensusbureau 4. In their latest filing, @TheJusticeDept attorneys do not say whether they found any other documents during the investigation they said they were conducting in this Nov. 25 filing (I've emailed DOJ spokespeople for comment.)👇
@TheJusticeDept @uscensusbureau 5. UPDATE: @TheJusticeDept spokesperson Alexei Woltornist says DOJ declines to comment on whether it's found any more internal documents that were "inadvertently" left out of the docs the Trump admin was supposed to disclose for the lawsuits over now-blocked citizenship question.
@TheJusticeDept @uscensusbureau 6. US District Judge Jesse Furman apparently had same question I had after reading DOJ's latest court filing: judge wants to know by Dec. 19 about the status of Trump admin investigation into any other documents about now-blocked citizenship question that may have been left out👇
