"She was weirded out by it," he says. The agents, O'Rourke says, said nothing to him, but took his ID and scrutinized it for nearly 30 seconds before letting him pass. He describes the experience as "a little bit alarming." Only later did O'Rourke find himself asking, "Why is a customs agent doing this search? The flight didn't enter from another country."

Asked to clarify CBP's authority over domestic passengers, the spokesman replied that "at this time this is all I have."

Rolling Stone asked CBP to point to its statutory authority to stop and examine the identity documents of deplaning domestic passengers. The spokesman sent a link to a document titled CBP Search Authority. The document refers to CBP's authority to inspect international arrivals. Specifically, it cites 19 C.F.R. 162.6, which states, "All persons, baggage and merchandise arriving in the Customs territory of the United States from places outside thereof are liable to inspection by a CBP officer." The CBP document adds: "CBP has the authority to collect passenger name record information on all travelers entering or leaving the United States." (Emphasis added.)

In a statement to Rolling Stone, a spokesperson for CBP said the agency had been asked "to assist in locating an individual possibly aboard Delta flight 1583" who had been "ordered removed by an immigration judge." The spokesman added that CBP agents "requested identification from those on the flight" but that ultimately "[t]he individual was determined not to be on the flight."

Not Fake News, TarHeelEer, the report is real. And you accurately report the statement of CBP being asked to assist with Homeland Security to determine if a specific passenger was on the flight.

It's the spin from the OP that would be in question, not the article itself. The fact that an unusual circumstance occurs is newsworthy. Just hard to believe that it is relevant to anything, actually.

Better call the Rivals police station and report him for unlawful trolling. Have you found your snowflake support group yet?

He definitely shouldn't be used by the coast guard for recruiting young people.

And what has THIS to do with Mountaineer sports? You have only been on here for a week with your two dozen contributions (seems your object is to join and be disruptive). Are you one of the many paid agitators that leo travels around to disrupt Town Hall meetings? why not just go back to your pouting about the election (and finally acknowledge that more has been done fr the American people in the last month by DT than was done over the previous 8 years--I am talking about positives for the citizens and not more left wing socialism).

So explain how the news was fake? It appears to have happened. According to you, now stuff that actually happens is fake if the reason for it happening can be legitimized by the alt-right? You scare me.

eerdoc,
It is not the Mountaineers Sports message board so you won't find any sports on here. Go the the Mountaineers Message Board for sports.

Some people should not have access to the internet, you may be one of them.

The "spin" is the truth. Do you think it's fine to ask Americans for ID documents because authorities are "looking for someone". Do you think Nazi's weren't looking for individuals when demanding documents from citizens? Where's the difference?

Everything happened, but the snowflake op purposely failed to mention that they were targeting a specific illegal immigrant that they thought was on that plane.

Therefore fake news as reported.
