Passengers of a domestic Delta flight from San Francisco to New York were told to show their identity documents to uniformed agents of the Customs and Border Protection agency upon their arrival at John F. Kennedy airport on Wednesday evening.

CBP officers are border agents, whose statutory authority is generally limited to international arrivals.

This was strictly a domestic flight. These are CBP agents demanding papers of everyone on the flight.

"Your Papers Please" Becomes Harsh Reality for Passengers on Domestic San Francisco to New York Flight

Customs and Border Protection (CPB) agents who claim they were looking for an unnamed person they thought might be aboard a flight who has been "ordered removed by an immigration judge" insisted upon seeing identity documents of every passenger on a fully domestic Delta flight (Flight 1583) from San Francisco to New York's JFK Airport on deplaning yesterday.

Good. Actions have consequences. People wanted unfettered immigration and bitched about a wall, now they can live with the results of their choices.

The people not responsible can and should direct any anger they have about it at those that actually caused the problem, whether next door or in DC.
