	Description:		Federal immigration authorities are asserting power to enter private property without a judge’s permission in clear violation of the Constitution. It’s a bedrock of the Bill of Rights. The Fourth Amendment requires law enforcement to have probable cause — and a judge’s OK — before entering someone’s home. But in a May 12 memo obtained by the Associated Press from the organization Whistleblower Aid, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons claims that agents only need an administrative warrant signed by another ICE employee. Extreme cold warnings are already in effect for parts of northwest and north central Minnesota and will be in effect statewide by Thursday night. That's as the coldest air in seven years could settle over Minnesota Friday morning.
