They knew this policy was so unconstitutional that they kept the “legal memo” authorizing this practice hidden, wouldn't let physical copies of it circulate, and a whistleblower had to alert Congress about its very existence.

Screenshot of a post by Acyn quoting an exchange between Lyons and Senator Blumenthal. Lyons cites case law allowing entry into a home based on an administrative warrant; Blumenthal responds that this does not override the Fourth Amendment or allow ICE to break down doors without a judicial warrant. Below is a C-SPAN image of a congressional hearing with an ICE official testifying.

@georgetakei you could start to write "the facists" or "the nazis" instead of "they" or "the GOP"

@georgetakei If you're in your own home, have no personal expectation of a legitimate search, and treat it as a home invasion and start shooting at clearly armed people (and especially if they blast their way in, Castle Doctrine law could come into play.

If the shoe were on the other foot, MAGA etc. gun owners would be treating this as the tyrannical government take over that they've been preparing for for decades. It would become a total bloodbath.

Hiti

हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
