[00:00:00]I not give you any permission to enter my home based on my Fourth Amendment rights. That's Jasmine recording from her home in Escondido as she reads her rights to federal immigration agents at her door. I wish to speak with you, answer answer your questions, or sign your hand you any documents based on my Fifth Amendment rights under the United States Constitution Okay, I'm watching this video and getting chills because they did such a good job here. I do not give you any permission to enter my home based on my Fourth Amendment rights. Perfect. And look, she's got two phones, one to read her rights from and one to record.

[00:00:34]That's smart. She has been watching legal videos and learning her rights and it's paying off right here. Here's what makes me super proud. She is staying calm and sticking to the script even when ICE is trying to pressure her. The agents go back to their car and return with administrative warrant. And Jasmine, she knows exactly what that is.

[00:00:53]It's not a warrant to enter your home.

[00:00:55]They need a judicial warrant signed by a judge. And when they try to pressure her more, she says, "If you're going to say that you're going to go get a warrant, then go get it." Boom. That is exactly right. This family stayed safe because they knew their rights and they were not intimidated into opening the door. The moment you open that door, you've given them permission to enter your home.

[00:01:16]That's why I make these videos.

[00:01:18]Knowledge is power and this family just proved it. Follow me for more breakdowns of how to protect yourself when ICE [music] shows up.
