Summary
Germany updated its travel advice for the US after three German nationals were detained despite holding valid visas or entry waivers.
The Foreign Office clarified that holding a US visa or ESTA approval does not guarantee entry, as border authorities have the final say.
Recent detentions include a green card holder held at Boston airport and two others detained at the US-Mexico border.
Germany investigates whether these cases reflect a broader policy shift under Trump’s tighter immigration policies.
Wow, that’s really scary. I wonder if my government will put out travel warnings urging Canadians to stay away, we’ve already had a deportation story make the news and the details are harrowing.
Do Canadians even need such a warning at this point? Between the tariffs and the direct threats to your sovereignty, I’m surprised you aren’t installing trenches, barbed wire, and land mines along the border yet.
It’s a really long border. In fact, it’s all but impossible to defend, and greatly favours an invader to pierce - due to its size - than a defender trying to keep people out.
Canada understands its best option is a France ploy, with politicians toeing the line and letting the barbarians in, while sniping and burning and counter-attacking and fomenting civil war on the nightly.
So the other one, not the Maginot Line, LOL.
