ICE surges enforcement, makes 10,000 arrests in five days amid Supreme Court birthright citizenship decision

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted over 10,000 arrests in five days following a Supreme Court ruling that upheld birthright citizenship. The decision rejected efforts to end automatic citizenship for children born in the U.S. to undocumented parents, prompting ICE to intensify operations using funds from the One Big Beautiful Bill. Protests against ICE detention conditions and policies have escalated, including a violent clash at the Delaney Hall ICE facility in Newark.
