Attorney General Mukasey disputes that the OLC memo argued that the 4th Amendment does not apply to domestic military operations
In a hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee, Senator Feinstein questioned Attorney General Mike Mukasey about a Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel memo allegedly arguing that the 4th Amendment’s prohibition of warrantless, unreasonable searches and seizures. Mukasey responds that his statement that the 4th Amendment applies “across the board” is not newsworthy, saying that his understanding of the memo is not that it argued the 4th Amendment did not apply.
