ICE has been authorizing officers to forcibly enter homes without judicial warrants—a reversal of longstanding guidance to protect people's constitutional rights. Senior reporter Samantha Michaels found a family in Memphis that experienced this in November. Six kids were home with their mother, all US citizens, when federal agents bust... show more

A newly disclosed whistleblower complaint indicates that Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorized its officers to enter homes without judicial warrants in the cases of people with deportation orders, a sweeping reversal of longstanding rules. Historically, ICE has told its officers that they could not rely on administrative immigration warrants — signed by officials at the agency, not judges — to enter people's homes, due to constitutional protections against warrantless searches.

🚨BREAKING: A video shows an ICE agent driving an SUV onto a PUBLIC SIDEWALK… and INTO A U.S. CITIZEN… all because peaceful protesters were watching ICE operate, in their neighborhood, on Friday night… in Frederick, Maryland. And notice in the video that there was no one blocking ICE vehicles, or attacking them… or preventing them from driving down the street. These people were standing on a PUBLIC SIDEWALK, documenting federal agents operating in their neighborhood. An agent can be heard ordering them to “get off the property… or they will be arrested” as the vehicle drives down the SIDEWALK… and hits a person. And then it gets even worse. After agents forced people off the sidewalk, protesters moved to the home agents were apparently targeting. Agents then moved in with batons… punching, kicking, and dragging people away, as agents tried to enter the private home… without showing a warrant. And after all of that… ICE DIDN’T ARREST ANYONE. And it is STILL unclear whether ICE even had a judicial warrant authorizing them to enter that private home in the first place. This situation is exactly why we have a Constitution… It is supposed to protect ordinary people from the government abusing its power. The First Amendment is supposed to protect our right to protest, and document what our government is doing. The Fourth Amendment is supposed to protect us from unreasonable searches, seizures, and excessive force. So, why the hell are we watching federal agents drive into people on sidewalks, beat protesters, force their way onto private property, and into a private home… without showing a judicial warrant? If the Constitution is supposed to protect us from this, why isn’t it?

After working a night shift in the pediatric ICU, Teyana Gibson Brown was jolted awake when federal agents used a battering ram to break into her home and detain her husband without a judicial warrant. Another example of ICE violating the rights of Minnesotans.

THEY SAID THEY HAD A WARRANT. THEY LIED. Two ICE agents in an unmarked car were found roaming through houses on a construction site. But when the site manager confronted them and demanded to see the warrant, they suddenly had somewhere else to be. No warrant. No answers. Just federal agents trespassing until someone challenged their authority. helps workers, employers and property managers verify warrants, protect private property, document ICE activity and respond without surrendering their rights. Know the law. Ask to see the warrant. Make them prove their authority. PAXIS is free for immigrants and citizens. Help keep it that way:

ICE agents busted into the home of a family of U.S. citizens who had just moved to Oklahoma City, pointing guns at them, forcing young girls outside in the rain in their underwear and then left with their life savings in cash, cell phones and other belongings as “evidence.” The mother pleaded with them that they were making a mistake and says her daughters have been traumatized for life.

🚨Another day, another video of ICE agents illegally demanding a U.S. citizen prove their citizenship, in Brownsville, TX. In the video, ICE agents have a U.S. citizen boxed in with their vehicles. After demanding that he show his ID, the U.S. citizen asks if he is free to go, and then tells them to get the F away from his car. Instead of going back to their own cars, the agents tell him to “chill”… after they had already illegally detained him and demanded identification. The U.S. citizen then gets out of his car, to record the agents’ license plates, and one of the ICE agents has the audacity to say: “Sir, please don’t interfere with our investigations.” Interfere with what investigation? He WAS the investigation. If they’re letting him leave, then there is nothing left for him to “interfere” with. Recording government agents, in public, is protected by the First Amendment, and they don’t get to invent an “investigation” to discourage someone from filming. And this is becoming a pattern. ICE agents are stopping whoever they want… and demanding papers. But that is not how constitutional rights work. ICE didn’t have reasonable suspicion that he had committed an immigration violation… since he is a U.S. citizen. So, detaining him, and demanding that he identify himself, violates his Fourth Amendment rights. U.S. citizens are not required to prove their citizenship, to any law enforcement, simply because they were stopped and questioned. And that’s what makes these encounters so dangerous. When U.S. citizens refuse to comply with these unlawful demands, we’ve repeatedly seen ICE agents escalate the situation with physical force. Citizens have been shoved, dragged from vehicles, pinned to the ground, and pepper sprayed after refusing unlawful demands, or asserting their constitutional rights. And a right isn’t a right if exercising it means you risk being assaulted by the very government that’s supposed to protect it. This isn’t just about immigration anymore. It’s about whether every American can exercise their constitutional rights without fearing they’ll be met with intimidation, violence, or retaliation from federal agents. If federal agents can stop U.S. citizens, demand they prove who they are without lawful justification, and then escalate when people refuse… Then nobody’s constitutional rights are safe.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were filmed trespassing in a fenced-in yard, with their gun drawn, without a warrant, in Joliet, Illinois. In the video, a person inside the house starts recording after noticing ICE agents were walking around their property. One agent can be seen with their hand on their gun. Then, a second agent walks into view with their gun fully drawn… and briefly points it toward the person filming inside the house, before moving out of frame as the person filming yells, “what are you doing?” A fenced-in yard is not public property. Under the 4th Amendment, the area immediately surrounding a home, including fenced yards, is considered part of the home itself for constitutional protections. Courts call this the “curtilage” of the home. Which means federal agents are not supposed to just roam around inside it without a warrant, consent, or an actual emergency circumstance that legally justifies it. Then there’s the gun… Because this wasn’t someone charging at officers. This was a person INSIDE their own home… holding a phone… recording what armed federal agents were doing on their property. So, what exactly justified drawing a firearm and briefly aiming it toward the person filming? What immediate threat existed? This is the kind of behavior that should terrify people regardless of politics… because once armed federal agents start treating constitutional protections like suggestions, no one is safe. Rights either apply to everyone… or eventually they stop meaning anything at all.

Democrat leaders in California have failed their duty to protect citizens and law enforcement. While mobs attack federal agents and ICE officers, California officials do nothing-or worse, side with the criminals. President Trump is PROTECTING the federal officers from being attacked at the FAILURE of the state. They're baiting us into saying we are taking over CA - he's not. He's trying to protect his federal agents while doing their job. Don’t fall for the left’s framing of this as overriding local authority.

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: ICE NOW ASSERTING POWER TO ENTER HOMES WITHOUT JUDICIAL WARRANTS An internal ICE memo confirms agents are now authorized to forcibly enter private residences using only administrative warrants signed by immigration officials, not judges. The rules: Agents must knock and announce between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. If occupants don't comply after a "reasonable chance," force is authorized. This applies to individuals with final deportation orders. It's already happening. In Minneapolis, agents used a battering ram to enter a Liberian man's home as part of "Operation Metro Surge." The warning: For years, legal groups told immigrants they didn't have to open the door without a judicial warrant. This memo explicitly undercuts that advice. Minnesota AG Keith Ellison filed a federal lawsuit alleging Fourth Amendment violations. A judge issued an injunction, but an appeals court just suspended it, allowing the tactics to continue. The DOJ has now subpoenaed Minnesota officials, including Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Frey, for alleged obstruction. This is heading straight to the courts. Source: AP/Fox

🚨This is terrifying. ICE illegally broke into a home in Burnsville, Minnesota, without a warrant, searched the entire residence, broke down doors, and detained U.S. citizens. According to the family, everything started when a couple renting the basement was followed home from the grocery store by ICE agents. Ring footage shows agents detaining the man while the woman ran into the house with her 7-year-old son. That’s when the chaos began. Angel, the owner of the house, says ICE agents forced their way inside without showing a warrant, then took his sister, mom, daughter, and niece into the kitchen, made them hand over their phones, and pointed guns at them, telling them not to move. He says all four are U.S. citizens… and only after they were terrified at gunpoint did they finally get the chance to show their paperwork. And to make this even worse, the man detained outside the house had a work permit, which is more than Melania Trump had when she came to America, and allegedly worked without a work permit. This raid raises urgent questions: if ICE can allegedly storm the homes of U.S. citizens without a warrant, what protections do any of us really have?

On April 24th, armed ICE agents broke into a home occupied by a family of American citizens in Oklahoma City in the middle of the night. The family repeatedly said we are citizens, you have the wrong people. ICE broke down the door, terrorized the family, ripped apart the entire house. It's not other people that this is happening to. It's us. Due process is not some pie in the sky idea. It's what literally holds our country together. This family is all of us. Open your eyes. Wake the hell up.

Federal law dictates that ICE and CBP are responsible for immigration enforcement. Cool. Can't dispute that. But even government agents must abide by State laws - unless a federal law exists that overrides State law. It's time for Democratic Mayors to start arresting ICE agents who are kidnapping American citizens and immigrants off the streets, at their place of employment, and their homes - without cause, without identifying, and without warrants. Thanks to Philadelphia DA Larry Krashner for laying it all out there. 👇👇👇👇👇

🚨ICE agents aren’t the only ones illegally storming homes, detaining people, and operating without proper warrants… the Memphis SAFE Task Force is doing the same. And it’s no surprise, because this is exactly what “justice” looks like under Donald Trump’s administration. A man in Memphis says task force agents held him at gunpoint, then searched his home using a warrant that wasn’t even for him. That is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment. This task force brings together federal agencies like ICE and the U.S. Marshals Service… the same agencies already being exposed for detaining people without proper warrants and grabbing the wrong individuals. This administration told you this was about “violent criminals”… but now, people who aren’t even on warrants are having guns pointed at them inside their own homes. If they can enter a home without a warrant, detain someone who isn’t even the target, and ignore the Constitution entirely… then even U.S. citizens are no longer safe. This is the same pattern we’re watching with ICE… they say they’re targeting the “worst of the worst”… then expand it to everyone else. They say they follow the law… then break it when it’s inconvenient. They say it’s about safety… but violate your rights. This didn’t happen by accident… this is what happens when you flood cities with federal agents, demand high arrest numbers, and strip away accountability.

🚨BREAKING: In Norman, Oklahoma, ICE agents illegally surrounded U.S. citizens, and demanded they prove their citizenship. The Fourth Amendment doesn’t allow law enforcement to detain people without reasonable suspicion that they’ve committed a crime. “Looking Hispanic” isn’t a crime. And because ICE is a federal agency, targeting people based on race, or ethnicity, is a Fifth Amendment equal protection concern. And then, after ICE agents demanded that two American citizens prove they belong in their own country… they just went back to their cars and drove away, like they didn’t just violate the constitution. Imagine being surrounded by unmarked vehicles, treated like a criminal, and forced to prove your citizenship because of how you look. This is exactly why constitutional rights exist. They’re supposed to protect us from the government abusing its power. When agents think they can stop anyone they want, demand papers, and drive away like nothing happened, that’s how constitutional rights become meaningless.

Congress made it a federal crime in 1865 to bring armed federal agents to a polling place. On September 1 the man who runs ICE said his agents will walk into one this November if they decide they need to. In this video I break down the law and the four sentences to say when an agent stands between you and your ballot. You have rights at that door, and the room where you vote is the one room in America where the government has to wait outside. Send this to every voter you know.
