In case we needed anymore evidence that the Democrats' "concern" regarding corruption in the Trump administration was anything other than pure politics...

The Biden administration has declined to prosecute former Trump administration officials, including former Commerce Department Secretary Wilbur Ross, after an inspector general confirmed they provided false testimony regarding the origins of the proposed citizenship question on the 2020 census.#

The Commerce IG launched its probe in 2019, following a#request#from lawmakers. The investigators did not make their report public, citing Privacy Act concerns, but said in a#letter#to Senate#Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., that Ross and other officials played a “substantive role” in proposing the addition of the citizenship question to the census. The proposal caused significant controversy as critics said it would deter non-citizens from participating in the count at all and it was eventually struck down by the Supreme Court.
