The very idea they didn't just turn her around proves how evil these fucks can be.
CBP agents at the border accused Brösche of planning to violate the terms of the visa waiver program by intending to work as a tattoo artist during her trip to LA
Oh wow, a visiting artist might come do some art, fucking arrest her!
Jesus fucking christ the sociopathic cowards running these ABC agencies are dumber than shit

Add tourism to another industry Trump is helping out.
And she remains waiting for a deportation flight back to Berlin, when she already had her own return ticket? Which she would have used already by now and been gone??? God these people are so fucking stupid.
... another industry Trump is helping stamp out.

You'd have to be downright r-worded today to want to visit USA. Not this woman, I mean every one who comes after her.
I would go. But i'm not crossing the border legally lmao no fucking way.
As an American, I would recommend that folk reconsider travel to the US during the current administration. There are no longer checks and balances and it’s a very dangerous place at the moment. They’re removing all accountability for the border patrol and any immigration adjacent services so they can now do whatever they want. You’re at the complete mercy of the immigration service and they have full latitude to do whatever they want (legal or illegal) as the threat of repercussions have been removed. Be safe out there.
And these police that have you at their mercy are pm selected for being dumb, and anyone who wants the job just wants the power to harm people. Also they get like two days of training before being given a badge and a gun. When they abuse their power, even when they murder people, they have next to zero accountability.
Don't come here. Most of Central America is fantastically beautiful, welcoming, and safe. From what I understand Canada is as well (I'm not allowed in the country) but it's cold there much of the year.
My university sent out travel warning announcements about the US to all students and staff through email and matrix last week. Basically warning everyone, especially queer people, that you should expect complications or unjust treatment when traveling to the US. Kinda crazy that some german university takes this more serious than the US democrats take the end of their democracy.
Thanks. The US is the last place I wanted to go anyway, I don't want to support genociders.
Yeah. I have friends who are wanting to come to the US. "It couldn't happen to me, I'm white" they say. "I'm from Europe, I'll be safe" they say.
No.
It'll happen to them, and I'm scared because they refuse to listen.
Send them a link to this story.
I did.
What a horrible situation for the artists and all those detainees..Seems random people have been detained and held way too long, without legal reasons.

I would not even fly to the USA right now, if I would get paid to do so. This country turned from one of the most attractive targets into a total shithole within weeks.
to be fair, it was not an attractive target before either for a long tim, independently of the president. CBP and ICE were bad people for a very long time now, and that's not even the only problem
I've visited the US a couple of times for work.
I've been very careful with my wording when they've asked if I'm there to work.
Yes, I'm there for work. I'm employed in the EU, and I'm just there representing my employer at a fair or technical meeting. I'll be gone in a few days.
My colleague didn't have the same way with his words, but back then they'd just put you on the next plane back.
Yeah, I've been to the US for work-related training and it's the same. You must emphasize that you will not be working as an employee while you're there, or they assume that you are.
"business" used to be the right way to describe it . Then if asked you'd elaborate.

Sue Sue Sue. Take them all down and take them over the coals for every cent you can get.
I don't want to be mean, but I think it's a bit naive that a German citizen would be able to sue the US gov with the current checks and balances
What checks and balances?
Sueing everything and everybody is such an American thing to do.
She'll be glad to get the fuck out of that shithole and never look back.
It's the goddamn plot of Mexican Joker from South Park happening in real time

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
