DHS ramps up its use of a secretive legal weapon, administrative subpoenas, which allow federal agencies to obtain your data without a judge’s order. Tech reporter @joemenn.bsky.social warns, “We are so awash in data now that an immense amount can be compiled without you ever knowing.” #Velshi
DHS is using administrative subpoenas to retaliate against dissenters
The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known legal weapon, targeting dissenters with administrative subpoenas. MSNOW Legal Analyst Melissa Murray says the Trump administration isn’t using them “to fight crime or enhance public safety, but to minimize public dissent.” Tech reporter Joseph Menn warns, “This isn’t an isolated case.”

1. Require that election officials purge voters using the DHS's DOGE "SAVE' AI system.

2. Everyone registering to vote must prove their citizenship in person.

3. Disenfranchises many of the 69 million married women.

NEW: House Republicans unveiled a new version of their voter suppression bill that would erect unprecedented barriers for those hoping to register while imposing a nationwide photo ID requirement for voters.

The changes would gravely undermine the right to vote in the U.S. before the 2026 midterms.

“Late Friday night, the Fifth Circuit adopted the extreme minority view—that the government can indefinitely detain without bond millions of non-citizens who have been here for generations; who have never committed a crime; and who pose neither a risk of flight nor any threat to public safety.”

This is a very, very bad decision from one of the two Reagan judges left on the Fifth Circuit, joined by one of the two most extreme Trump appointees on the court.

They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

The GOP is pushing the SAVE Act, to make elections 'more secure.’ How many wives took their husband's name in marriage?

How many of those have names that no longer match what's on their BIRTH CERTIFICATE?

Under SAVE, they will not be eligible to vote. MILLIONS of women will LOSE VOTING RIGHTS.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.
