[Take Off] Supreme Court Allows Texas To Arrest Illegal Migrants The Supreme Court on Tuesday overturned its stay and [voted 6-3 to allow Texas](to enforce its law allowing the state to arrest illegal immigrants. On Monday, Justice Sam Alito blocked enforcement of the law in an administrative stay until the full court could act. On Tuesday, the full court surprised officials by allowing the law to go into effect immediately, pending a full review by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The three liberal justices [issued public dissents]( from the 6-3 decision, saying it would cause enforcement chaos. The court said it could revisit the issue quickly if the Fifth Circuit doesn’t decide soon. The Justice Department says the law is unconstitutional because authority over immigration status belongs to the federal government. Texas has argued that its borders are being overrun because the government isn’t enforcing the law. [Article Icon 1] Housing Prices Far Outstrip Decades of Inflation U.S. home prices [rose 2.4 times the inflation rate]( over the past 60 years, meaning a $500,000 house would cost $177,000 if homes had just increased at the same rate as other prices. More simply, prices are ten times higher today than in 1963, but housing prices are 24 times higher. Experts say the added costs are due to a housing supply shortage, the high cost of land, the increased average size of homes, and various zoning restrictions. Surveys consistently show that housing costs have a political impact. A Redfin survey shows that over 50% of Americans say [affordability affects their voting plans](, and another survey shows it as [the No. 1 issue for liberals and No. 3](for conservatives. [Article Icon 1] Fish Tale: Man Snags World-Record Paddlefish A Kansas man set a world record by catching a 164-pound, 13-ounce paddlefish at the Lake of the Ozarks on his first “snagging” trip. [Here's a photo](. Paddlefish are considered [“living dinosaurs"]( and are prized for their size, uniqueness, and black-market caviar. To catch paddlefish, fishermen drag hooks through the water in a technique called snagging. Chad Williams of Olathe, Kansas, [snagged the giant five-foot fish]( early in his chartered fishing trip and spent 10 minutes reeling the record-breaker in. “As soon as it hit the boat, everybody’s jaws dropped,” said the charter captain. Williams shared the paddlefish meat with [the fishing group]( and preserved the head to mount on his wall. --------------------------------------------------------------- We're happy to report that The Flyover keeps growing, now surpassing 620,000 readers thanks to our advertisers and readers like you.
