Thank you! What I’m saying. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
I feel like I am going a little bit crazy listening to Democratic lawmakers "demand" that ICE get judicial warrants before it arrests people in their homes, given that the Fourth Amendment has imposed this requirement on law enforcement officers for, oh, roughly 250 years now
Mike Johnson Is Very Annoyed By the Fourth Amendment’s Existence
For a constitutional lawyer, the House Speaker sounds alarmingly unfamiliar with how the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement works.

The Speaker of the House is openly disparaging the clear, unquestioned meaning of the Fourth Amendment. Dems' response shouldn't be to "demand" Congress somehow reinforce 4A via statute.
They can support 4A by loudly arguing Johnson has disqualified himself by breaking his Congressional oath.
