Laura Ingraham shines a spotlight on everyday Americans and examines how their lives are affected by politics at the federal, state and local level. Census. Up until 1950, we did have it on the census. The census changes and we didnt ask that question. Tell us about the posture of this case and this police judge, jesse furman. Laura what is happening here is that these judges are, you know, taking these cases and imposing their own judicial philosophy and new standards that are not written into the law into these cases. You saw the exact same reasoning that judge furman used here, which is that wilbur ross, in charge of the census in his department, had made some remarks about the reasoning behind wanting to count citizens that raised an issue of animus. Well the United States Supreme Court recently ruled that this Animus Theory is bogus and one of the elements that shouldnt be applied. Clarence thomas has spoken out on nationwide injunctions. So basically, this is a
confusion and we h
happy, so. jermaine knight awaits a staff ruling of a different sort. he has applied to be taken off the jail s validated gang list so that he can participate in programs. as he nears the end of his two year nine month sentence for unlawful wounding and violating probation on an armed robbery conviction. so talked to the lieutenant. he s showing that you are still a gang member. his whole thing is, he s still validated. that s how he feels. and the other thing that s not working in your favor is your history here. i mean, you can go through this jail, ask any of these dudes that s supposed to be crip, do they know me? they will tell you no. that s all i have to go by. all right? while we never had no issue, i ve always been straight with you, vice versa. it s the history. i wish i had better news for you. no, i m serious too. so just keep your head up straight. and keep your head on straight. kind of walk a straight and
trump s regardless of the prourt supreme court laura: okay. can i say this? that case didn t also wasn t just rested on discrimination issues. the apa was violated. the court found despite the advisory committees as well as staff ruling against it or recommending against it, wilbur took it upon his own to put it in place. the case is not over. they just got passed a motion to dismiss. it s not the final decision. laura: it s not the final decision. but to say it s racial so now you can t scott, now you re saying a question asked of all people is racist? all americans would have to answer the question. that s unbelievable to me. you re a smart guy. it might not be racist but has a racial disparent impact. laura: why? it s absurd. laura: we have to move on. all right. we have to move on. we got another case.

my sister s going to be here. removing an inmate wristband is a pretty big deal, that s why it s a class i charge. that s basically our only way of sort of tracking who is who here in the jail. even if it s just maybe a foot away but not on the wrist, it s still it s still a charge. still just as serious, because again, there s no sort of lesser charge, you know, removing an inmate wrist band but having it close by. it just either is or it isn t. so i gave her a loss of visiting for a week. just so happens she does have a pretty big visit i think scheduled next weekend. so i think it will hit home to her sort of the punishment for what happened. can i ask them to take another privilege away or what do you think? no. that s not up to you. oh. you can t decide what you re going to be punished for. i understand. so i m unable to get my visit. it s okay. i really don t want them to see me like this anyway. they probably wouldn t be real happy, so jermaine knight awa
