4th amendment shit on - ICE says they don't need warrants to enter homes

A May 2025 internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement document shows that the agency told officers and agents they can forcibly enter homes of people subject to deportation without a warrant signed by a judge.

The memo, dated May 12 and which reads that it is from ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, was shared with U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., by two whistleblowers.

It says that ICE agents are allowed to forcibly enter the home of a person using an administrative warrant if a judge has issued a “final order of removal.” Administrative warrants permit officers and agents to make arrests and are different from judicial warrants, which a judge or magistrate signs allowing entry into a home.

Lyons notes in the document that detaining people “in their residences” based solely on administrative warrants is a change from past procedures.

“Although the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has not historically relied on administrative warrants alone to arrest aliens subject to final orders of removal in their place of residence, the DHS Office of General Counsel has recently determined that the U.S. Constitution, the Immigration and Nationality Act, and the immigration regulations do not prohibit relying on administrative warrants for this purpose,” the memo reads.

The memo says that agents may “arrest and detain aliens” in their place of residence who are subject to a final order of removal issued by an immigration judge, the Board of Immigration Appeals, or a U.S. district or magistrate judge.

The memo says under general guidelines that officers and agents using a method called Form I-205 must “knock and announce” and that “in announcing, officers and agents must state their identity and purpose.”

The Associated Press first reported on the document Wednesday.

Republicans continue terrorizing children

School district officials in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, say their sense of security is shaken and their hearts shattered after four students from the district have recently been taken by officers with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The Columbia Heights Public School District says two children were taken on Tuesday, including a 17-year-old boy on his way to school. He was removed from his car and taken away.

Then in the afternoon, 5-year-old Liam Ramos was taken with his father while in their driveway after just arriving home from his preschool classroom. School officials say the child was used as bait to knock on the door and ask to be let in, letting officers see if anyone else was home.

"Why detain a 5-year-old? You can't tell me that this child is going to be classified as a violent criminal," said superintendent Zena Stenvik.

Two weeks ago, a 10-year-old student in fourth grade was taken by ICE agents on her way to elementary school with her mother. During the arrest, the child called her father on the phone to tell her that ICE agents were bringing her to school. The father then came to the school to find out both his daughter and wife had been taken.

School officials say both children and their parents are being held in a detention center in Texas. They say Liam Ramos' family is following U.S. legal parameters and has an active asylum case with no order of deportation.

Thing That Everyone Warned Would Happen With DOGE Turns Out To Have Happened

No.1479552 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Two members of Elon Musk’s DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states,” and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls, the Justice Department revealed in newly disclosed court papers.

Elizabeth Shapiro, a top Justice Department official, said SSA referred both DOGE employees for potential violations of the Hatch Act, which bars government employees from using their official positions for political purposes.

Shapiro’s previously unreported disclosure, dated Friday, came as part of a list of “corrections” to testimony by top SSA officials during last year’s legal battles over DOGE’s access to Social Security data. They revealed that DOGE team members shared data on unapproved “third-party” servers and may have accessed private information that had been ruled off-limits by a court at the time.

Shapiro said the case of the two DOGE team members appeared to undermine a previous assertion by SSA that DOGE’s work was intended to “detect fraud, waste and abuse” in Social Security and modernize the agency’s technology.

“SSA believed those statements to be accurate at the time they were made, and they are largely still accurate,” Shapiro wrote, adding “At this time, there is no evidence that SSA employees outside of the involved members of the DOGE Team were aware of the communications with the advocacy group. Nor were they aware of the ‘Voter Data Agreement.’”

Trump Does a Little Bit of Trolling

President Donald Trump sent a text on Jan 18 to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre in which he complained about not winning the Nobel Peace Prize, saying he no longer will think “purely of Peace” as a result. Trump went on to assert that only a “Complete and Total Control of Greenland” by the U.S. could keep the world “secure."

Trump’s message was first reported by PBS journalist Nick Schifrin in an X post, and confirmed by Støre's office to USA TODAY on Jan. 19. The prime minister's office also shared the message exchange between Støre and Trump with USA TODAY.

“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America,” Trump's text, sent at 4:15 pm Norway time (10:15 am ET), said.

"I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland," he continued.

Trump's message was in response to a text message Støre sent on behalf of himself and President of Finland Alexander Stubb less than half an hour before, at 3:48 p.m. local time, urging Trump to "de-escalate" on "Greenland, Gaza, Ukraine and your tariff announcement."

"You know our position on these issues. But we believe we all should work to take this down and de-escalate - so much is happening around us where we need to stand together," Støre wrote. " We are proposing a call with you later today-give us a hint of what you prefer!"

Resolution to Bidens Energy Catastrophe

Trump steps up to shield Americans from Bidens disastrous energy policy

He will be requiring AI companies to find their own way to power their data centers.

Trump says Microsoft will pay more for its datacenters’ electricity
Microsoft’s president said firm won’t accept tax breaks in towns for its datacenters as backlash against facilities grow

Donald Trump said he is partnering with tech companies to ensure the large energy-hungry datacenters vital for AI do not drive up electricity bills in the US. On Tuesday, the US president announced that Microsoft was “first up”.

“We are the ‘HOTTEST’ Country in the World, and Number One in AI. Data Centers are key to that boom, and keeping Americans FREE and SECURE but, the big Technology Companies who build them must ‘pay their own way.’” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Thank you, and congratulations to Microsoft.”

Brad Smith, Microsoft’s president, outlined the company’s plan at an event on Tuesday near the White House titled Community-First AI Infrastructure. He said the initiative aimed to minimize water use and ensure that Microsoft’s electricity usage does not add to individuals’ utility rates. In towns where Microsoft has datacenters, he said, the company would pay its property taxes and accept neither tax reductions nor electricity rate discounts.

“Like major buildouts of the past, AI infrastructure is expensive and complex,” Smith wrote in a blogpost on Tuesday. “This revives a longstanding question: how can our nation build transformative infrastructure in a way that strengthens, rather than strains, the local communities where it takes root?”

Social media trial: Woman who uploaded video booked in Kerala
The incident related to the case happened last Friday, when the woman uploaded a video on Instagram, accusing Deepak of sexually harassing her while travelling on a private bus in Kannur district.

KOZHIKODE: What began as a social media post has now escalated into a major legal and human rights controversy in Kozhikode. After the family of Deepak -- a 42-year-old man from Govindapuram who died by suicide days after a video accusing him of sexual misconduct went viral -- moved top authorities demanding an exhaustive probe into his death, the police have slapped non-bailable charges against the woman who uploaded the content.

Based on a complaint filed by Deepak’s mother K Kanyaka, the Medical College police registered the case on Monday against the 35-year-old content creator, invoking section 108 (abetment of suicide) under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), for posting a defamatory video on social media. Earlier, Deepak’s family had written to the chief minister, the state and district police chiefs, and the district collector, seeking justice. Subsequently, the police have also recorded the statement of the family.

Hiring woes and 'super high' prices

"It feels like the price of everything is rising.
Childcare costs are about $25,000 per year, which really surprised me. My parents might retire next year, which could help.
It feels like Trump doesn't tell the truth about almost anything, so it's hard to know how the economy is actually doing. I'd grade him a 4 out of 10 for the economy, because he talks about it more than he actually does anything to help it."

Jim Sullivan, 55, Indiana

"I know inflation is down, allegedly down, but prices for all kinds of other things are super high, electricity, all kinds of things.
There's so many things that he could be doing - that he is doing - but he's in so many places I think he just needs to focus in on a few things. He promised the economy would be the primary thing, but I don't know that it's completely been that."


Devynn De Velasco, 22, Nebraska

"My husband and I are honestly worried about an economic collapse.
We've been saving a lot of money - thinking of buying a house - but we have that in the back of our mind that if there is some sort of problem, we do have a full safe.
Politics and the economy are very much linked, so what our president does impacts the economy. So the threats to Greenland and Denmark and these remarks about Nato has made me quite anxious."

Denise Demontagnac, 21, Maryland

"One year post graduation, I have not been able to find a stable job which is extremely impacting my life and my family's life as well.
It's not that I haven't applied for jobs. I've applied for jobs every single day. It's the fact that people are not hiring, partially because they cannot afford to hire.
You look at interviews where Trump says 'Oh, the job market has never been better, we've created more jobs than have ever been created before'.
As somebody who is actually going through that [market], I don't see the data, I don't see the proof."

NEED TO KNOW
Faced with Democrats polling up in midterm races, President Donald Trump suggested that "we shouldn't even have" midterm elections during a new interview with Reuters
In the interview, Trump blamed "some deep psychological thing" for the looming threat that Republicans might lose Congress in November
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during a press briefing on Jan. 15 that the president was "speaking facetiously" when he made the comment

Faced with the looming threat that Republicans might lose control of Congress, President Donald Trump suggested America should call off its upcoming midterm elections.

The president, 79, sat down with Reuters for an interview on Wednesday, Jan. 14, during which he addressed new polling numbers. The Lincoln Project reported this week that 18 House races have recently shifted in the Democrats' favor, and the Senate is thought to be up for grabs as well.

“It's some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don't win the midterms,” Trump said.

He even went so far as to boast that the first year of his second term had gone so well that "when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election."

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt attempted to walk back the president's comments about midterms while speaking with the press on Thursday, Jan. 15. Leavitt, 28, said she was in the room during Trump's interview with Reuters, which was not recorded, and insisted he was "joking" about doing away with elections.
