that's not an adequate explanation. namely, the explanation by the commerce secretary, wilbur ross, that he decided to add this question only after he got a letter from the justice department saying we need this data to better enforce the voting rights act. the supreme court basically said that's not true. he was thinking about this way before that. so what they've done is they've sent it back to the court where this came from. according to york they ruled in favor of 18 states and other groups that challenged this decision to put the citizenship question on and that court had sent it back to the census bureau to say try again. tell us now why you really want this question. so that's where it stands. the census bureau can come back now, they will go to the judge in new york, he will probably rule against them, the trump administration will ask the supreme court to take the case and the question is by the time all that has played out, has it simply been too late to get this process going. >> peter, isn't that stunning? a cabinet member isn't honest about the way in which he makes
