ICE Can Now Enter Your Home Without a Warrant to Look for Migrants, DOJ Memo Says
A new memo from the Trump administration reveals something shocking: ICE agents have been told they can enter homes without a warrant to arrest migrants, based on little more than suspicion. The Ma…
The March 14 directive, signed by Attorney General Pam Bondi, uses an obscure 18th-century law — the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 — to give law enforcement nationwide the power to bypass basic constitutional protections.
According to the memo, agents can break into a home if getting a warrant is “impracticable,” and they don’t need a judge’s approval. Instead, immigration officers can sign their own administrative warrants. The bar for action is low — a “reasonable belief” that someone might be part of a Venezuelan gang is enough.

...That's not how the relationship between laws and the Constitution works.
Journalists don't need to just print both sides arguments and throw their hands up like determining truth is beyond them. Don't print lies and falsehoods without immediately pointing out they're lies and falsehoods. They didn't find a glitch in the system that maybe the courts will patch eventually, they're making up unlawful justifications to violate constitutional rights. Yeah, constitutional rights aren't going to save you from the violation, but we all need to know and establish that it's a violation in advance. ICE could always enter your home without a warrant, they just couldn't do it legally, and a memo from fascist Barbie hasn't changed that.
Your mistake is thinking that the media in the US employ journalists. They're oligarch controlled propaganda machines.
Not great
Hey that 60 Minutes producer quit because he couldn’t run the show independently anymore, so apparently sometimes oligarchs didn’t have complete control yet
Still waiting on those nuts to step up to what they said they were keeping guns for.
You can go exercise your rights too.
Learn to shoot, might not be long before they’re kicking in your door.
I’m not going to some El Salvadoran death camp. If I’m gonna get killed by my own government, I’m going down swinging. Maybe I’ll take a few of the bastards with me.
No no those guns were to make sure they don't end up on the bottom.
Why?
Are you unarmed and regretting your anti gun political beliefs as you run head first into this brick wall of reality?
