A quick write up on our 4A rights because if a shit ton of congressmembers are confused about whether or not any old warrant gets agents into a home, more of us need to help educate them on the answers they can't find on their own. It's not a complicated answer.

Not only has this Admin launched a regime-change war of choice that the American people don't want, they can't even get their story straight about why they did it. American servicemembers and hundreds of civilians have been killed β and all they can do is lie.

We don't just realize it, we intend for it to hit that way. Trump isn't doing this alone - he is helped by not only the Republicans in congress, but also the voters who put them there. They all own this.

It's going exactly as one would expect an operation led by this collection of fuck ups and orange nosers to go. They have no plan, nor the intelligence between them to come up with something sustainable and successful. REPUBLICANS OWN THIS. LET TRUMP BE THE LASTING LEGACY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028. He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.

Or Republicans in congress can stand up and remember they are there, being paid quite well in tax dollars, to represent the people and uphold our constitution. That should be at least as plausible as more illegal acts being done by the sitting president.

Absolutely, 100%illegal. The 4A was meant to protect from exactly these types of targeted attacks. It was because of what John Adam's saw done with "general warrants" in England. The courts have called this type of shit from over zealous agents unconstitutional at every challenge.
