    that just means ICE and DHS carry on, funded…

    Yes and no. From what I can gather, exempt employees continue to get paid (as their pay apparently comes from some sort of separate fund unless that fund is depleted) but excepted employees are not getting paid and would theoretically get back pay at the end.

    So yeah, they’re there, but a decent chunk probably aren’t getting paid.
