OK, let’s talk about why ICE doesn't need an article III judicial warrant to detain someone for deportation. Yeah, you heard that right.
The outrage machine is already in overdrive after an illegal migrant working as a Nashville reporter—one who often criticized US immigration policies and enforcement!—was arrested for deportation, supposedly “without a warrant.”

Of course, Estefany Rodriguez-Flores WAS detained for deportation on a warrant, but it was an entirely appropriate Article II administrative warrant, rather than an Article III judicial warrant.

The anti-American, pro-migrant screamers need to relax and stop lying to the American people. Immigration law treats illegal presence as a civil violation, not a crime—unless you're talking re-entry after deportation, which is criminal, but that's the exception.

Congress set this up decades ago: 8 U.S.C. § 1226, § 1357 allow for immigration detentions without need of a judicial warrant. ICE officers get the power to arrest and detain aliens they have reason to believe are removable.

Oh, the pearl-clutching! "Administrative warrants aren't real warrants!" cry the lawyers in their safe spaces. True—they're not signed by a "neutral and detached magistrate." That's the point! Immigration isn't criminal prosecution; it's removal. The "warrant" is basically an internal green light saying, "Yeah, this guy's deportable—go get him." For folks with final removal orders? Even easier—I-205 says the immigration judge (who's executive branch, not Article III) already ruled. Due process? Check. They've had their day in immigration court.

Liberals act like this is some Trump-era power grab. Nah, it's been the law forever. Biden's ICE used the same tools—just slower and with more apologies. Now with mass deportations ramping up, suddenly it's "tyranny." Funny how the Constitution only matters when your side's losing.

Bottom line: Judicial warrants are for criminal stuff—searches, probable cause for felonies. Deportation detentions? Administrative all the way. It's efficient, it's legal, and it's exactly what keeps the system from grinding to a halt. If we required judges for every ICE pickup, we'd need a thousand more federal benches and a budget the size of Ukraine aid. No thanks.

In other news, I’ll also cover the insane decision out of the DC Court of Appeals affirming a lower court’s preliminary injunction that strips out the word “Temporary” from “Temporary Protected Status,” and forces Trump to keep hundreds of thousands of Haitian barbarians in our nation, as unelected federal judges prove once again that they have zero respect for our Constitution’s separation of powers.

I was sitting in my office this weekend watching the news on Iran, and I couldn’t help but think that Iran’s decades-long antagonism of America and murder of Americans is finally turning out much like the Chihuahua that finally chased down the milk truck—bark around, find out.

Of course, it took Trump to make this find out a practical reality, after decades of feckless prior presidents bent the American knee to Iran’s relentless yapping—because unlike those prior presidents Trump just does the things that America can and should do.

Now the word on the street—or should I say, the word on the Strait of Hormuz—is that Trump is eyeballing Iran’s Kharg Island like a hungry bear eyes a fat rabbit. If you don’t know, Kharg Island handles about 90% of Iran’s crude oil exports—you can think of it as Iran’s big fat wallet. Seize that asset and suddenly Iran goes from rich boy living large on a trust fund to the kid restocking shelves on the night shift.

Without Kharg Island, Iran simply can’t keep distributing the fast sums of money that maintain its theocratic death-cult grip on the nation—and that theocratic death-cult will find itself eviscerated in precisely the same manner as its several layers of leadership have been eviscerated by American & Israeli bombs and missiles.

Even better is the strategic impact on China. Traditionally, China purchased as much as 80% of Venezuela’s oil exports, and as much as 90% of Iran’s oil exports. With Venezuela now a secured American partner and Iran demonstrably unable to ensure exports as the United States has begun to explode its tanker ships, China is facing a tightening petro-energy noose around its economy. Hear that gagging sound? That’s Xi as the rest of China’s political leadership see his rule of the nation resulting in its economic collapse.

Again, Trump can just do the things America ought long have been doing.

As for America’s enemies, foreign and domestic, black-pilling about sky-rocking prices of oil as a consequence of Trump’s military action against Iran—the brief spike in oil prices immediately after the bombs started dropping has already begun to collapse. Why? Because price setters of crude oil recognize that the world actually has a current oil surplus, America itself floats on an ocean of oil, the US has just secured Venezuela’s oil resources, Trump’s savvy offer of maritime insurance has already brought Lloyds of London back into the market, and any energy spike is likely to be short-lived at worst.

Once more: America's back, baby. Under Sleepy Joe, we'd be begging the UN for permission slips while oil hits triple digits. But with Trump? We're talking leverage on every strategic front, baby—enforce the Donroe doctrine in the American hemisphere, seize Iran’s wallet, stabilize the energy prices, and make China suffer sufficiently to neuter it’s own strategic ambitions against Taiwan, against America, against anybody.

Episode #M1161

Yesterday anti-American paramilitary forces invade a Christian church in Minneapolis during services, terrorizing the parishioners—men, women, and weeping children.

Their “justification”? One of the senior leaders of the church is employed by ICE.

Leading the invasion was former CNN journalist Don Lemon, a self-identified homosexual black man, who cavorted with the invaders before, during, and after the invasion. The invaders also included various well-known professional agitators.

Now the Department of Justice is looking into bringing federal charges against Don Lemon specifically and the other invaders generally.

Yesterday foreign-born anti-American agitator Mahmoud Khalil received a well-deserved set-back from the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, which in a 2-1 vote reversed a lower district court ruling that ordered Khalil released from immigration detention while he sued to avoid deportation ordered by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Khalil had for months been leading often-violent anti-American protests at Columbia University calling for the eradication of western civilization. During this period he transitioned his immigration status from student visa to preliminary “green card,” following his marriage to an American woman soon after his 2022 arrival in the US.

Secretary Rubio, noting that America has no compelling reason to allow to remain in our nation foreign nationals advocating against America’s national interests, ordered Khaliil detained and deported. That initial March 8, 2025 detention set off a series of detentions and releases and federal litigation that continues to this day.

On June 20, 2025, federal district trial court Judge Michael E. Farbiarz ordered Khalil released from immigration detention, a decision appealed by the government. Yesterday’s Third Circuit ruling reverses that release order—though this change in status is paused for 45 days to allow Khalil to appeal to either the Third Circuit en banc or directly to the Supreme Court, so he will remain free during that period.

Two days ago, a three-judge 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel voted 2-1 to allow California’s new re-districting of congressional seats remain in place for the upcoming 2026 mid-term elections, effectively ensuring that the Democrats will secure an additional five House seats.

The majority opinion consists largely of 70 pages of politically partisan word-salad so commonly produced by the liberal 9th Circuit when it simply wants to lock in a win for the Progressive Fascist Democrats.

The dissent by Judge Kenneth Lee, however, is ON FIRE, and exposes the racist fecklessness of California Governor Gavin Newsom—a man who appears incapable of not lying about any subject whatever—in pushing this Prop 50 re-districting through the already super-majority California.

In this video, we break down the major January 14, 2026 Supreme Court decision in Bost v. Illinois State Board of Elections — a 7-2 victory for election integrity and candidate rights.

The Court ruled that political candidates, like Illinois Republican Congressman Mike Bost, have Article III standing to challenge state election laws governing how votes are counted in their races — even before proving specific harm to their electoral chances. This reverses lower court dismissals and remands the case for further proceedings.

At issue: Illinois law allows mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be received and counted up to two weeks later. Bost argued this violates federal statutes setting a uniform Election Day for federal elections.

Chief Justice Roberts, writing for the majority, emphasized candidates' concrete interest in the integrity of vote-counting rules and the democratic process. The decision could open the door to more pre-election challenges nationwide, helping resolve disputes before votes are tallied and reducing post-election chaos.

A big step forward for transparency and accountability in our elections. What do you think — will this lead to fairer processes or more litigation?

Yesterday the US Supreme Court heard oral argument on a pair of cases involving men playing in women’s sports—Little v. Hecox, and West Virginia v. BPJ.

As usual the justice line up appeared to be Alito, Kavanaugh, Barrett, Thomas, Gorsuch, and Roberts on the side of reason and law, and the three SCOTUS crones—Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson—as the liberal lunatics in the conversation.

And once again Justice Ketanji “I’m not a biologist, how would I know what a wom
