This letter from Sen. Wyden (D-OR) to CIA Director Brennan is unusual.
For reasons unknown, Sen. Wyden felt the need to create a paper trail that lets the public know something is wrong in the classified arena.
Very curious indeed.

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. Theyโre signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.

Abolish ICE.
Thereโs no reforming it.
Thereโs no compromise.
Thereโs only one way to rein in ICEโs terror campaign. Abolish it.
