Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.

The AP just uncovered a whistleblower memo that says the ICE has authorized agents "to forcibly enter into ..homes without a judicial warrant."
And ICE told agents not to distribute these instructions, but to verbally pass them along.
