This DHS memorandum says that the DHS General Counsel's office has adopted a new position that the Fourth Amendment allows entry into the home to make an arrest just based on an administrative warrant.
I would like to see that argument.

To regain the trust of Europeans and the rest of the world, it will not be enough for the US to get rid of their king; they will also have to take measures to ensure that never again shall such a tyrant come to power.

Scientists Thought Parkinson’s Was in Our Genes. It Might Be in the Water
New ideas about chronic illness could revolutionize treatment, if we take the research seriously.
A good story about the environmental, not just genetic, causes of Parkinson's. A big culprit? TCE, a chemical Obama banned, Trump unbanned, Biden banned again, and Trump is now unbanning again. #MakeAmericaToxicAgain

Il faut arrêter de dire que la crise provoquée par la révélation d’un réseau de corruption en Ukraine affaiblit Zelensky. C’est plutôt le contraire. Et le dire nourrit le message russo/américain sur l’illégitimité de la démocratie ukrainienne.

Au vu de la vitesse d'ouverture de la fenêtre d'Overton depuis le début de l'année, et comme il semble que la "liberté d'expression" ne soit plus envisageable que pour un seul parti, le passage au fascisme assumé ne devrait plus tarder, sous les vivats de la foule MAGA.

Ride the wave: A big, beautiful European strategy for Trumponomics
The US president is throwing the EU lots of economic curveballs. Brussels should not be distracted by these; instead, it should double down on adopting measures that will benefit the bloc long after…
Which data points are the most useful to understand US-EU relations in the trade, investment and financial fields—and what do these data tell us about the impact of Trumponomics 2.0 on Europe? Here's a selection of 12 charts from my new @ecfr.eu policy brief 👇 [🧵 Thread]
