I'd previously seen reports of this in San Diego specifically. I'm assuming they're testing this for a wider rollout, which is horrific. They've always deferred to USCIS to make a decision (in which the overstay is not a factor) before enforcement.
But these are lazy people with arrest quotas.

"A thorough review of these allegations has been initiated" doesn't mean they're gonna do anything. They don't have a case. It's likely a bluff meant to instill a chilling effect.
Nevertheless, things are as serious as they were immediately preceding the Civil War.

It is so very easy to offer non alcoholic beverages - just buy some fancy sodas or pop some regular apple cider on the stove, everyone will cherish your kindness, I promise.
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.
