I do think that the 2010 census was inflated, don’t trust the base number.
Yeah, all those missing IL school children, who no longer attend schools in IL, they all just left on their own, without parents or grandparents. It’s a census error too. Nobody believes this crap. Every institution under Joe Biden has politicized. craptasic fuchs was having a field day with this, “oh, we actually gained 250,000 people” sure we did as we look around at the abandoned buildings, empty office space, and abandoned strip malls that liter our landscape.
Absolutely a load of old cobblers.

The end is coming; it is written in the Scriptures. And so it should.
Control the census bureau. Control the census. Familiar tune.

I don’t believe it, just a different type of ballot box stuffing to achieve this result.
