Threat of Cell Phone Surveillance

The U.S. Supreme Court’s June 2026 ruling in Chatrie v. United States marked an important step in protecting Fourth Amendment rights against modern surveillance techniques. The Court determined that broad “geofence warrants,” which compel companies to turn over location data from large numbers of phones in a defined area, constitute a search under the Constitution.

ICE Detainer: Haitian Deadly Trucker

The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a statement after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer asking Pennsylvania officials to not release from jail a Haitian illegal alien who was arrested after allegedly causing a semi-truck crash that killed a Pennsylvania State Trooper.

Part 2: Constitutional Debate Witnessed

When I wrote recently that the Roberts Court appears to be restoring the constitutional boundaries between Congress, the President, and the federal courts, I had no idea that only days later the Supreme Court would decide a case that answered a constitutional question I had personally wrestled with thirty-five years ago.

This week’s decision overruling Humphrey’s Executor is being reported as another dispute over presidential power. I see it differently. I see it as the Supreme Court finally resolving a constitutional argument that took place inside the George H. W. Bush Administration in 1991.
