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.
Reminder that many states have “STAND YOUR GROUND” laws that include protecting you in the event you shoot someone claiming to be a federal agent who doesn’t produce badges or a warrant.
Funny you think people will still get a fair trial (or even a trial at all instead of a bullet or “accident”) in the United States after shooting someone from the regime.
it’s encouraging to see Americans who still believe the law means anything. I hope you manifest it back into existence.
Fun Fact: In Indiana, you can legally convert ICE agents into a fine red mist if they try this.
They have no legal protections while breaking the law.
Problem is… It then gets reduced to you shooting at people, and people shooting at you. That’s seems like lose lose situation.
I mean, if you’re going to die anyway, might as well take some assholes with you.
And dying in a concentration camp in El Salvador is a lose win situation
This is a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment, and they are counting on the Supreme Court to back then, which they won’t. Then they’ll just ignore the Supreme Court, and do it anyway.
Which is why everyone needs to be arming themselves and open-carrying at protests moving forward.
Agree. They need to be extremely afraid of us. Politicians are greedy cowards, and they only respond to money and fear. We don’t have money to bribe them like the Sociopathic Oligarchs, so we have to make their fear of us overwhelm their greed.
It’shard to keep up with all the shit, but didn’t the supreme court rule they couldn’t use this act? Does a “DOJ memo” override a supreme court ruling?
Report a MAGAt today!
Fuck yeah, plus it adds a sabotage element to their plans
I said we would have late night, door to door searches by year’s end,
They’re running early
Someone is going to get killed.
I hope a lot of them (ICE agents) do. I wonder where all these gun toting larpers who take guns to walmart to “protect the innocent” are?
Too busy sucking at the teat of tyranny.
Considering ICE likes to abduct people in masks, civilian clothing and without any identification and thus are easily confused with burglars, i’d say shoot on sight for trespassing would be a viable option.
So… where is that outrage from preppers and gun enthusaists of the government barging into their homes?
Can you image if Biden, Obama, or even Bush did this?
There would literally be a massive armed mob outside the White House.
Turns out guns are useless in the face of propaganda, I guess.

This is the real takeaway. Orwell was right about a lot of shit, but the use of language as a means of control was extra prescient.
See they are not coming for their guns, so there does not appear to be a problem. Yet.
No, They can not, It is a violation of the constitution. Which dumb fuck also is in violation of.
Read as: Enter your home under the false pretense they’re looking for migrants, so they can search for any reason to charge you with a crime and toss you in a camp.
Sounds like a second amendment solution.
violent problems require violent solutions.
Shoot warrantless masked unconstitutional kidnappers and ask questions later.
Sounds a little too familiar
Enter my home without a warrant or identifying yourself, and your gonna leave in a casket.
I’ve also explained to my family that we do not open the door to anyone, especially people who claim to be cops. Way too easy to claim it, then force their way in while your waiting for them to prove who they are.
I think trump is a fwit, but sounds like there will be more than 1 bodybag leaving.
Not a good survival strategy for your family honestly…
Better off moving somewhere safe like Australia. No guns here. No idea why anyone would want to live in that shit hole anymore with all the corruption, shitty leaders, dangerous living environment, and uneducated idiots in charge
The way I see it, if ICE is trying to come into my home without a warrant, then they already intend for me to die. I’m a white natural born US citizen, but I’ve made my stance on kings in this country pretty clear, so a visit from the SS is a factor I have to be ready for. I’d rather die at home, taking a many of them with me as I can, then quietly allowing them to send me to a death camp, if I had to choose.
We don’t want to live here right now, but we don’t have the finances to leave. So instead, we’re going to protect our home, and continue to support and participate in the actions against tyranny that we can. Protests, pressure on other elected officials to resist as well, etc.
Edit: Besides, if evil comes to your country and knocks at your door, shouldn’t you fight it?
If a bunch of armed guys in masks show up refusing to identify themselves or provide warrants, what do you think most people would assume they are???
In a country with more guns than people, this seems line an insanely stupid tactic that guarantees preventable tragedies.
Warrants get rubber stamped on a regular basis, the argument that it’s suddenly too onerous a burden and they’re just allowed to ignore our constitutional rights is pretty fucking absurd too.
law enforcement isn’t known for it’s critical thinking
It’s the rubber stamping that is the problem. Sometimes they get a talking to when they get too rambunctious and kill a few innocent bystanders. Now there’s no rules to bind them, so have at er!
