    Idk who needs to here it but Do Not Come Here. For your own good, cancel plans if you had them. If you have a work event, tell them you feel unsafe (because you sure af will be if you come to a fascist country).

    It is not safe.

    So if I read this right

    They left the states and couldn’t return because the guys visa wasn’t valid anymore, but Canada turned them away because of the car.

    At that point you should probably apply for asylum now and refuse to go back to where you don’t have valid papers anymore.

    Or have the person with no longer valid papers walk through if they’ll let you and the other person go back.

    she knew that international travellers were being locked up in immigration detention centres in the US. “I was aware,” she nods. “But I never thought it would have any impact on my holiday.”

    “I am not a dangerous criminal. I didn’t enter the country illegally and I had everything I needed to be there.”

    Fuck the Trump administration, but also fuck this privileged bitch in particular

      What makes her a privileged bitch? She had a visa, she entered the country legally. In any other non-fascist country this wouldn’t have happened.

        She was aware it happened to others and despite evidence to the contrary just bought the US government’s narrative that those all were illegals and criminals.
