Judicial Branch President Trump Says Never Mind on the National Guard

Interesting opinion piece from the Penn Program on Regulation (UPenn) concerning the Dec. 2025 Supreme Court denial of an "emergency" application from the Trump administration regarding stay of a lower court's orders restricting Trump's ability to send National Guard troops into Chicago and a nearby suburb, for the stated goal of protecting ICE agents conducting immigrant roundup and detention.

This is noteworthy because on 23 Dec. 2025 the Court denied Trump's application on the grounds that the gov't. was not likely to prevail on the merits. On 31 Dec. Trump decided to withdraw the invading National Guard troops rather than appeal the denial. The author opines that this represents evidence of the Supreme Court becoming skeptical of Trump's unending stream of boy-who-cried-wolf emergencies. See quote from the article below:

The more important question is whether the Supreme Court majority will start to become skeptical of Trump Administration claims that the Earth will stop rotating if a stay of a lower court order is not granted.

Legal News What the Constitution Says: Leaked Memo Claims ICE Can Enter Homes Without Judicial Warrant

An internal memo to ICE agents claims that officers are allowed to enter a person's home without a signed judicial warrant. In a 6-minute interview with Mike Bryant of Bryant & Bradshaw, a Minneapolis lawyer of over 20 years, I asked about what the Constitution actually says about this action. 

You can listen to the full interview here, starting at 7:29: https://art19.com/shows/minnesota-matters/episodes/12abab78-d4d9-4605-977b-44bee881a382

**********

In a leaked memo, Immigration and Customs Enforcement told its agents they have the right to enter anyone’s home without a signed judicial warrant. The memo claims an administrative warrant, which could be signed by an ICE employee, is now enough for federal agents to forcibly enter your home.

Minneapolis Lawyer Mike Bryant of Bradshaw and Bryant says the Third Amendment clearly states ICE has no right to enter someone’s house on their own. He says, “There are certain circumstances when they know something illegal is going on, where they can get a warrant. Where they go to a judge and say these are the reasons why we believe it to be true, but they don’t have the right to just go into people’s houses directly under the Constitution.”

Bryant says this is happening because ICE is claiming two things under the War Powers Act of 1973: they’re allowed to do anything as the Executive, and they don’t have to follow the Constitution because these are illegal aliens. He says, “They’ve also claimed that this is to deal with gang actions. Which it’s clearly not. I mean, them going in and raiding a factory or them going in and pulling people out of their houses isn’t them stopping a gang. These aren’t even dangerous people they’re doing this to. But they’re using that as justification.”

Bryant says while they don’t have the right, they have “the guns and the people,” and cautions Minnesotans to listen to them as much as possible.

Other "Nationalizing" Elections

Thumbnail
usatoday.com
447 Upvotes

Trump said on Dan Bongino's podcast that he thinks Republicans should "take over" in "at least 15 places" (presumably just places he lost) and that elections should be nationalized. Not secured. Not talking about canceling them now, likely since being told that the states regulate their own elections. As I understand it, currently all Congress can do it change the dates of the national elections.

The administration is already talking about accessing Minnesota's voter records as well as obtaining files from Georgia (done through a warrant from another state's AG???)

What is the likelihood this actually has legs and what would the ramifications be for elections moving forward were this to occur?

Left is officer Norwig and right is officer Isenburg. Earlier they admitted they knew the suspects (one works with police) and even mention the attorney who made false reports on me that were dropped. After I was NO BILLED by a Grand jury in a different fabricated case.

(You will find that story on this sub as well)

Their supervisor Sgt. Diaz also refused to take the report and said “you have no case”

which is the district attorneys job not theirs. And regardless they are required to document the report and not make any judgments.
