🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Are we doing burner phone discourse now? Fine. A Burner phone is a phone belonging to a Bay Area tech worker who won't shut up about Burning Man. You will never see them at a protest where they have even the slightest chance of being arrested.
