https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ice-policy-officers-enter-homes-immigration-without-judicial-warrant-rcna255305A 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.
Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said in a statement that immigrants in the country illegally who are served administrative warrants or I-205’s, which are removal or deportation warrants, “have had full due process and a final order of removal from an immigration judge.”“The officers issuing these administrative warrants also have found probable cause,” McLaughlin said. “For decades, the Supreme Court and Congress have recognized the propriety of administrative warrants in cases of immigration enforcement.”The group Whistleblower Aid, which is representing the whistleblowers who shared the memo with Congress, said, “This ‘policy’ flies in the face of longstanding federal law enforcement training material and policies, all rooted in constitutional assessments.”“In other words: the Form I-205 does not authorize ICE agents to enter a home,” the group said in a statement. “Training new recruits, many of whom have zero prior law enforcement training or experience, to seemingly disregard the Fourth Amendment, should be of grave concern to everyone.”Blumenthal said in a statement that the memo was “allegedly not widely distributed” despite being labeled “all-hands.” A copy of the memo shared with Congress is addressed to “All ICE Personnel.”“Instead, the disclosure claims that the memo was rolled out in a secretive manner in which some agents were verbally briefed while others were allowed to view it but not keep a copy,” Blumenthal said. “It was reportedly clear that anyone who openly spoke out against this new directive would be fired.”The memo is dated less than five months into the second term of President Donald Trump, who campaigned on mass deportations.Immigration crackdowns by the Trump administration against several Democrat-run cities have sparked protests and unrest, most recently in Minneapolis after an ICE agent fatally shot a U.S. citizen, Renee Good, on Jan. 7.
“It is a legally and morally abhorrent policy that exemplifies the kinds of dangerous, disgraceful abuses America is seeing in real time,” Blumenthal said. “In our democracy, with vanishingly rare exceptions, the government is barred from breaking into your home without a judge giving a green light.”The ICE memo says that Form I-205 is not a search warrant and “should only be used to enter the residence of the subject alien to conduct an immigration arrest.”Under the Trump administration, roughly 220,000 people have been arrested by ICE officers in the nine months Jan. 20 to Oct. 15, according to data shared by a project in December.Around 75,000 of those have been people with no criminal records, according to the data.The figures were shared by the University of California, Berkeley’s Deportation Data Project, which obtained them through a lawsuit brought against Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
This is now a party thread. Post tunes to deport immigrants to >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZHpWH80rKc
>>1479927And that's a good thing. Deport all criminal illegals.
A memo isn't overriding a fucking amendment. What the fuck? This is the easiest lawsuit possible.
>>1479937Supreme court says its ok.
>>1479938Where? Where does it say that? They didn't say this.
>>1479936They've already broken into the home of a US citizen who happened to be an old man. But I guess you're pretending to be American so you're just enjoying all this.
>>1479940Accidents happen. It's unfortunate, but not a reason to abandon enforcing the law.
>>1479941Yeah yeah, get your giggles in, pajeet.
>>1479942Save your crocodile tears for reddit, chomo
>>1479943classic projection esl shill
>ICE says they don't need warrants to enter homes >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.” OP is a fag, clearly
>>1479948why do you want ice agents to get shot for breaking and entering
>>1479948This is different; they're using warrants for an arrest to enter homes, which usually requires a separate warrant.
ITT: foreign shills celebrating americans giving up their rightsit'd be funnier if they weren't so apocalypticly retarded
>>1479951You don't have a right to be in the country illegally, Ramesh
esl shill is redeeming again
>>1479941>but not a reason to abandon enforcing the law.Then they should get a warrant dipshit
>conservatives 10 years agoDONT TREAD ON ME>conservicucks in current yearTREAD ON ME DADDY I LOVE BIG GOVERNMENT
>>1479953its weird, because everyone knows that they get fucked in the ass by a notorious MS-13 tranny every night.It'd be a shame if ICE showed up and destroyed their home their home looking for the shills throbby mommy
>>1479954They don't need one. Learn our laws before trying to debate them, Ramesh.
>>1479957Giving instructions to ignore the law doesn't mean it doesn't apply dipshit.
>>1479958What part of "ice doesn't need a warrant" did you not understand?
>>1479960i know you're literally not american, but the americans who are ICE better count down to their trials for their crimes against humanity, it's only a matter of time
>>1479948administrative warrant is not the same as a judicial warrant
>>1479957A memo doesn't override the fourth amendment. That's it. That's the end of it. That's the law. You need a warrant to enter homes.
>>1479960They do and saying they don't doesn't change that. There's a reason these retards try to rush deportations and block legal council, because a judge would see how many laws they broke in the process and put them in their place.Of course, this has its own issues. ICE was so eager to deport the other day they accidentally turned a potential 15 years in prison into a free ride back home by deporting a jewel thief accused of helping steal over 100 million before he could go to trial.
>>1479950Wait, I'm a little confused. So there's two warrants? One to justify the probable cause and the other to enter the home?
>>1479964They're not rushing deportations, though. We literally know where the immigrants are going, dude. They're being sent to private prisons.
>>1479966>They're not rushing deportations, though.You sure?>https://www.kare11.com/article/syndication/associatedpress/immigration-officials-allow-suspect-in-100m-jewelry-heist-to-self-deport-avoiding-trial/616-df544988-aff8-4fff-a566-edfb1e3937db
>>1479965Yes. Police get one warrant to arrest someone if they spot them in public, but in order to enter someone's home, even the suspect's, they need another permitting them to enter private property. This is enshrined by the 4th Amendment.
>>1479963The fourth amendment doesn't apply to illegal aliens.
>>1479969Yes it does retard. Hence why police can't just raid property owned by foreigners whenever they want.
>>1479970We can and we will. Illegal aliens have no rights.
>>1479971then stop posting esl shill. stop breathing while you're at it
>>1479971You can't. And you'll be prosecuted for ignoring the constitution and doing so anyway.
>>1479973We can literally send you to a gulag in El Salvadore and there's nothing in the constitution that says we can't.
>>1479974>wenobody will ever believe you're american
>>1479976Did you type this while staring at yourself in the mirror, Ramesh?
esl shill is projecting again
>>1479969So why are the breaking into citizens homes and detaining them? This never happened under Obama, and he deported millions more than what Trump has managed.
>>1479974The constitution actually does say something about that. It also says the sheer amount of power abuses deserve a hanging.
>>1479981Hangings are for traitors. You know, betraying your country to outsiders? That kind of thing?
>>1479982>Brutalizing and murdering citizens>Blatantly ignoring the constitution>Invading states based on whether their politicians have been critical of the president instead of actual illegal countThe founding fathers would've left your bodies to rot at the end of a rope. ICE has abused its authority so badly it's legitimately imitating what led to the revolution in the first place. By all counts they have betrayed their oaths to the american people as members of the federal government.
>>1479982outsiders? like faggot shills such as yourself? yeah, you're right
>>1479980>citizens
>>1479981It doesn't, actually. ICE is operating entirely within the letter of the law.
>>1479986I'm sorry, did they not get caught repeatedly doing that?
>>1479987i doubt you even know the alphabet by memory esl shill
>>1479987>ICE is operating entirely within the letter of the law.>Ignoring the 4th amendment>Ignoring official protocol for lethal force>Literally shoving tear gas into cars with children inside>Ignoring the 1st amendment by stopping people from recording them and raiding businesses critical of them
>>1479988Ice can enter legal private residencies without a warrant under certain conditions. But if you're here illegally, you have no rights and fuck all the way off.
>>1479969The fifth amendment. Jesus Christ. India is not sending their best.
>>1479991>Ice can enter legal private residencies without a warrant under certain conditions.No they can't.> But if you're here illegally, you have no rights Not true.
>>1479989YWNBAC, Ramesh
>>1479991But they entered the home of legal citizens. Are we going to keep doing this stupid game?
>>1479995at least you come when called esl shill. good boy
Like, there are genuinely Americans on here that hate illegals, and probably rightly so, but how fucking stupid do you have to be to suddenly think that the right to a trial doesn't extend to fucking everybody? This is shit taught in the fifth grade. I know that the guy in the thread is a pajeet, but there's surely not Americans stupid enough to think this, right? How the fuck did they think anchor babies came about?
>Americunts not knowing their own rights? >Nah!! It's just pajeets and botsSaddest mutt cope
>>1479998They actually can be deported without a trial legally. Google expedited removal.
>>1479990>>Ignoring the 1st amendment by stopping people from recording them and raiding businesses critical of themHave they actually been enforcing that? I know they purposefully made it into a trap using distance but it seems they haven't really been able to stop it beyond just mass mob violence.
>>1479996They can do that under certain conditions without a warrant. How many times must it be repeated
>>1480002And what are those conditions, pajeet
>>1480003whenever he needs to lie for a penny, is my guess
>>1480000>They actually can be deported without a trial legally. Google expedited removal.Yeah that's only if they literally get caught at the border.
>>1480003Google it, Ramesh
>>1480006lol
>>1480006can't count to four, can you esl shill
>>1480005Indeed, being on American land doesn't grant you the rights of an American citizen, silly retard
>>1480009It ONLY applies there retard.
>>1480010It only applies on American land to American citizens, correct. You absolute ignoramus
>>1480011nobody will ever think you're white or american, have a penny faggot
>>1480013I appreciate that you badly want to be an American. And you should, because its the greatest country in the world. But you have to do it the legal way.
>>1479984>By all counts they have betrayed their oaths to the american people as members of the federal government.Doing what? Getting rid of illegal aliens that don't belong here in the first place?Lest you forget: you're arguing in favor of illegal immigrants who have committed widespread fraud and steal jobs away from the American people. The average hardworking American can barely afford healthcare while you're over here singing the blues about foreign criminals.You've got a lot of balls to call other people traitors.
esl shill is using multiple devices now isn't he. all in a day's work
>>1480011No, expedited removal only applies at the border and recent arrivals. Precisely because the constitution applies to PEOPLES who live in the US and not citizens. If you live in the US, you have constitutional rights.
>>1480006So you dont actually know yourself and have been talking out of your ass this whole thread. I mean it was obvious but thanks for confirming i guess.
>>1480015>please ignore how we've abused the citizens of the US over and over again>The average hardworking American can barely afford healthcare while you're over here singing the blues about foreign criminals.The average hardworking american can barely afford healthcare and instead they gave a few hundred billion to ICE which they then used to gas that american and forcibly detain him without cause.
>>1480017Even "people" that have been here for <2 years can be removed without a trial. Rights are not afforded to non-citizens.
>>1480020>Rights are not afforded to non-citizens.Yes they are and the more you try to subvert that, the greater you will be punished by the law. Being an ICE agent will be a permanent black mark on your record. Even if you escape legal punishment, your cooperation with their abuse of the constitution will ensure your life is effectively over.
>>1480022Wrong, and I've just demonstrated how illegals have no rights. There's nothing in the constitution or bill of rights that suggests non-citizens have rights. In fact the very idea that our laws apply to everyone in the world regardless of citizenship is childish and patently retarded
>>1480015Would it blow your mind to learn the infamous Somali fraudsters in question are in fact, citizens? Otherwise, that bill about denaturalizing them would be kinda weird.
>>1480024>ourLOL
>>1480024>In fact the very idea that our laws apply to everyone in the world regardless of citizenship is childish and patently retardedIt literally is settled law that the constitution and the rights within apply regardless of citizenship.>https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/amdt14-S1-3/ALDE_00013743/
>>1480025It would blow his mind even more to learn the actual leader of the fraud ring:1. Already got arrested in 20222. Was a white woman.
>>1480027The preceding clause literally outlines the precepts necessary for naturalized people to be considered legal citizens so that the laws may apply to them. You are so dumb.
>>1479941Our Constitution was written with the exact opposite idea in mind. Better a hundred guilty men walk free than a single innocent jailed.
>>1480031>The Supreme Court has held that this protection extends to all natural persons (i.e., human beings), regardless of race, color, or citizenship.You continue to get BTFOed every time you make this argument.
>>1480032Literally has nothing to do with the topic>>1480034Illegal alien =/= naturalized God you guys are so low tier. I could do this all day. State your country of origin
>>1480028Wait, let's ignore the pajeet for a second, can I get a fucking source on this?
>>1480031>The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits states from depriving "any person" of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. The Supreme Court has held that this protection extends to all natural persons (i.e., human beings), regardless of race, color, or citizenship. Thank you for playing.
>>1480020For the love of God, stop using ChatGPT.
I will state again that a fucking memo doesn't mean jack shit. It does not magically grant you authority to override the constitution.
>>1480038The 14th amendment does not say "regardless of citizenship". In fact it says " No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens."OF CITIZENS. Holy shit you're so fucking dumb lmao

>>1480049Wow have you told anyone about this? Because the document itself seems unaware.>The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is not confined to the protection of citizens.
>>1480048Habeas corpus applies to unlawful detention. Illegals can be lawfully denied the rights granted to citizens.
>>1480051>Illegals can be lawfully denied the rights granted to citizens.No they can't. This is settled law.
>>1480050Key words: without due process of the law. Illegals have no due process
>>1480051>unlawful detentionthat is determined in court.
>>1480052They absolutely can. Easy example: illegals cant own a gun. They aren't entitled to rights.
>>1480053Yes they do. That's included under the Fourteenth Amendment.
>>1480056Show me where.
>>1480055They're entitled to the 14th amendment. This includes right to a fair trial.
>>1480057>nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.And before you argue, see >>1480044.

>>1480059See >>1480053
>>1480060>Illegals can be expedited without a trialOnly if they're caught at the border. Once they're firmly inside the US, expedited removal is off the table per the 14th amendment.
>>1480060by your logic, gunfags would have gone to the mexico border and shot anyone that they saw coming into america and that would have been legally fine.

>>1480062Seen>>1480020Learn the law, dum dum
>>1480065That isn't the law though. Please realize you literally cannot win an argument over settled law. The supreme court has ruled, multiple times, that the 14th applies regardless of citizenship.
>>1480064No one is saying the 14th grants them due process. That's literally not written in any piece of law anywhere.

>>1480066Wrong, the Supreme Court ruled that a non-citizen cannot be discriminated against on the basis of nationality. Not that the 14th applies to non-citizens. Quit being obtuse

>>1480069>the Supreme Court ruled that a non-citizen cannot be discriminated against on the basis of nationality. Not that the 14th applies to non-citizens.In their ruling that says, quoting it directly here>The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is not confined to the protection of citizens.You sure about that?
Break into my home you are getting shot. I don't give a fuck what memo some pedo politician handed you. I'm gonna be blowing a hole in your head the size of a fist.
>>1480070In the multiple supreme court rulings that affirm that "nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." means regardless of citizenship you numbskull.
>>1480071Every time you say this, I'm going to refer you to the part of the 14th that says "due process." Illegals are not due process.
>>1480074>Illegals are not due process.holy shit do you actually think it means "they are due process" instead of just the concept of "due process"?
>>1480075Do you not understand that under due process, we can legally just deport them? How fucking dumb are you?
>>1480074>The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is not confined to the protection of citizens.
>>1480078See >>1480074
>>1480073They don't think "other people" are people. It's like having reverse Schizophrenia.
>>1480077Under due process you need to let them have their day in front of a judge first moron. This is shitty bait; the law is black and white on this and no amount of arguing will change that. But I'll gladly keep letting you discredit the whole movement.
>>1480079The supreme court ruled they are "due process". Continue getting BTFOed by settled law.
>>1480081Some of them are required to see a deportation judge. Some are not. "Due process" does not mean these people are entitled to the same rights as citizens. Retard.
>>1480084>"Due process" does not mean these people are entitled to the same rights as citizens.The Fourteenth Amendment says otherwise>INB4 "Uh the fourteenth doesn't apply to non-citizens. The language in it that literally says any persons within a state doesn't mean anything. Those cases where the supreme court ruled outright it applies to non-citizens actually meant literally anything other than what they said directly
>>1480085God you're dumb. Due process literally means to what extent of the law process is due. And in the case of illegals, that extent is very limited. It does not grant the rights permitted to citizens.
>>1480085Its weird how closed retards like the shill claim to love the US Constitution, but clearly hate the actual words and intentions
>>1480086>Due process literally means to what extent of the law process is due. And in the case of illegals, that extent is very limitedYeah that's not how due process works. It means you're entitled to a fair trial under law. That includes immigrants being able to plead their case in immigration court.
>>1480089Bro, you're retarded. Due process does not require a trial. It means fair treatment and protection of rights under law. Illegals have no rights and fair treatment means deporting them.
