Vice President JD Vance defended a leaked Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo that authorizes ICE agents to forcefully enter homes without a judicial warrant, as critics slam what they say are the memo’s perceived violations of search and seizure protections enshrined in the Fourth Amendment.
Vance told reporters, “We're talking about different types of warrants that exist in our system,” adding, “Typically in the immigration system, those are handled by administrative law judges. So we're talking about getting warrants from them."
Vance said it is the Trump administration’s understanding “that you can enforce the immigration laws of the country under an administrative order if you have an administrative warrant.”
