Nitpick: I'm not sure that's right for the 1868-1898 period: Wong Kim Ark happened exactly because of a dispute over the meaning of the birthright clause and it was 6-2, so there were two SCOTUS judges who disagreed over the meaning. Certainly it's fair to say since 1898, though.

TSA workers have been going a month with no paycheck and they’re pissed that ICE agents are getting paid to chill and play airport cop. “TSA officers are sickened that we have unqualified DHS employees walking the airports, with pay, while we all suffer doing our qualified work unpaid.”

I am struggling to figure out exactly what the impact of this disclosure is (besides making the judge furious). I *don't* necessarily read it the same way as @bradlander.bsky.social and @rgoodlaw.bsky.social do; that DOJ is admitting ICE doesn't have authority to arrest in immigration courts.

Sponsoring a spouse costs US citizens up to $2,675 in fees alone, $675 to petition, $1,440 to adjust status, $560 for a work permit. The government is cashing those checks and then doing nothing. That's fraud not delay.
