"Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, memo says"
Congress is voting on ICE funding **TOMORROW** --
call/email/fax your members of Congress tonight so that they arrive to a deluge of constituent feedback before the vote in the morning.
Demand that they uphold the Constitution, which is literally the most basic summary description of their Legislative Branch duties, by refusing to fund unconstitutional acts.

Memo tells ICE officers they can enter homes without a warrant
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo obtained by The Associated Press reveals that the agency allows immigration officers to forcibly enter homes to make arrests without a judicial warrant. This change reverses previous guidance and raises concerns about constitutional protections against illegal searches. The memo, signed by ICE’s acting director, states that administrative warrants are sufficient for forced entry if there’s a final order of removal. This policy could face legal challenges and criticism from advocacy groups. Whistleblower Aid, representing two government officials, describes the directive as seemingly unconstitutional and a significant shift in arrest powers. The Associated Press obtained the memo and whistleblower complaint from an official in Congress.
AP NewsMost of us are rallying behind Governor Newsom, but don’t we all want to see more of this?! I for one want to see ALL our blue governors push back & there are plenty of ways they can do it as this wonderful lady explains.

Fight The Trump Takeover Rally · Fight the Trump Takeover
The Texas House Democrats are denying quorum to stop the Trump takeover of Texas and block his attempt to rig the 2026 midterm elections. But Trump isn’t stopping in Texas. He’s targeting Missouri, Ohio, Florida, and every state he can twist to help him steal Congress next year. States like California and New York are starting to fight back.
Let’s be clear: this fight started in Texas, but it doesn’t end there. This isn’t just about redistricting or one state’s politics. It’s about the future of our democracy. Trump is terrified of the American people. He knows he can’t win on his ideas, so he’s trying to take Congress by hook or by crook--and he’s doing it by silencing the voices of communities of color. We’re not going to let that happen.
That’s why we’re organizing a National Day of Action, on Saturday, August 16, to fight back against the Trump takeover of our country.
Texas will lead with an anchor rally at the Capitol in Austin. Across the country, we’re asking people to show up at their state houses, city halls, or community spaces and make it clear -- we see what Trump is doing, and we won’t stand for it.
**Please note:** A core principle behind our Fight the Trump Takeover actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
MobilizeEveryone needs to get off their collective asses and participate in the Democratic process. Donate $, speak out against misinformation whether in the grocery store or the gas station. Attend demonstrations!
