A second German tourist is being held in a detention centre after having her Visa revoked by the U.S.
It’s the same detention centre holding Jessica Brösche, the German tattoo artist who spent 8 days in solitary. She’s been held for 6 weeks.
The U.S. is not a safe place to travel anymore

Now WHITE EUROPEAN TOURISTS? What's the scariest thing they could do to you? Give you universal health care? A free university education? Free daycare?
The horror.
Just desert.
Knowing the elected R's won't do anything, it's time to pressure *their* big time corporate donors & constituents.
Rather than USA falling to Russia in a blitz attack like in the movie "Red Dawn", it went down without a whimper, thanks to "Orange Don"
This is the beginning of Gestapo terror.

So there was no Visa revocation in this case.
Which is not to say thst locking him up for several days for a misunderstanding isn't overkill.
Are we now at war with Germany???😡😡😡😡
We must get Donald Trump out of office to salvage what's left of our reputation in the international community. Right now, we are the criminals. We're kidnapping visitors to our country.

But redistricting is handled by the states--with varied success--and chicken farmers don't want to give up their power.

In other news, I see there's a detained Briton now:
To think that the Palestinian people live like this all of their life on their own land without any visa mishap.
At least the Germans are intact in the American hands
Those of us in blue states will miss you.
That orange bastard is destroying us, with the approval of nearly half of our citizens.
Please wake me up!!!

The U.S. is now a lawless fascist totalitarian police state and foreigners would be foolish to come here.
thats a tell here
I think you could be right.
I'll rephrase my q: does anyone *know* what they are doing with these abductees?
I'm assuming all answers here are brainstorm guesses, unless accompanied by some sort of corroborative intel 🧐🤔
Friends of mine have missed flights and other connecting transport in the past (on Australian passports!). Detained for hours.
We’d need data on what has changed, and by how much.
My good god 🤬🤬
I think I know the reason why they were detained rather than turned away immediately.
And example if you will
Dah!
It’s not safe & given Trump’s repeated threats to annex or economically destroy us, we clearly aren’t welcome
But don’t forget to support the Americans who need us. Our disabled, marginalized & LGBTQ+ neighbours are terrified
Fuck these Nazis is all I can say.
Garden and make Good Trouble?
I wouldn't want to say the provision was extensive, but it was extra time in exams, monthly meeting with a specialist tutor to discuss issues, advice and support in navigating undergrad assignment expectations, laptop with various software to assist reading etc.
We apologize for Trump and his MAGAts.😕
I'm not sure Canada, UK and Australia are safe for long either tho.... : /
I once loved going there. Now that I’m retired I wanted to winter down there. No more. I’ll winter in Mexico instead
Please don't buy anything made in the USA. Only financial hardship makes MAGA people pay attention. A rapid financial crisis will help Trumps approval plummet.
The appointments website of the German Consulate in San Francisco has been down for days, with a message saying the server is overloaded. Figures.
our fully rogue fascist admin .. (has been for awhile..w/ certain groups.... just not across the board)

Trump is now holding your citizens hostage. Kinda like Russia.
As an American, I'd boycott anything to do with us right now too. This will hurt tourism. So many have already cancelled their trips. This will hurt areas that depend on tourists (Alaska, Hawaii & etc).

Sounds like they're arbitrarily locking up foreigners just based on their prejudices.
Please share
Come for the unlawful detention
Stay for the measles, mumps, rubella with polio & TB coming soon
Hell of a tourist slogan!
Oh. Well, now I'm embarrassed.
Sorry. Like a real Canadian sorry.
My current mood feels like the klikbeet video. Vile, angry and embarressed as hell. Towards Ukraine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39qNKC30T64

As an oversized male with significant tattoos.. I stand out
Wonder what ICE will make of my Canadian accent & Marine Corps Tattoos

Can that be happening?
She looks like an innocent bookworm.
My thing us I want the USA to hold less sway and for all the countries to held to same standards (tho with equity in mind.)
Don't risk y'all's safety to come here.
(tho unfortunately, that only works for people just coming her for fun.)
I just think it incredibly unwise to do what the white supremacists in our country want, one of them def is leaving NATO.
Terrified of an even more emboldened WH than currently.
I wish world politics was part of our basic education, as it was hard to rally even progressives to get upset about shit on that end until recently.
Not that race SHOULD be considered but it's telling that this administration is snatching up white tourists to harrass and detain too
That clicking sound you hear, America, is everybody canceling their summer plans to visit the US.
And the sucking sound you hear is the travel industry going down the drain.
First Trump alienated Canada, now Britain and Europe.
MAGA!

Isn‘t a B2 visa required for such travel plans?
