No it isn’t. It’s arbitrary abuse of power. Vetting happens BEFORE valid paperwork is handed out. Detaining people with valid paperwork for hours and never charging them with anything is abuse.

It’s just very clumsy and very inconvenient. Which I always agree government shouldn’t be, but usually is.

Two people at SFO, one at Dulles, and two at JFK face “imminent deportation” because CBP won’t comply with court order, advocates say.”
If true, this will be interesting (from an advocacy group so I assume it’s at best misleading)
