"Can you imagine an American president, any president, giving West Point as a gift to an offshore company, only to demolish it and build a hotel?” Aleksandar Jovanovic, a member of Serbia’s parliament, said last year as the deal was being negotiated, referencing the U.S. Military Academy. “One would have to have a vivid imagination to imagine that.

They weren't there to vote, just out for a walk in their constantly tranquilized state, saw a line formed, & went to stand in it, staring down at their shoes.

Germany and Britain Issue U.S. Travel Advisories https://www.fodors.com/news/news/germany-issues-advisory-to-its-citizens-about-u-s-travel Quote The crackdown on immigration ordered by the Trump administration has drawn international attention. After three Germans were detained while trying to enter the U.S., Germany is emphasizing to its citizens that a visa or an entry waiver does not guarantee entry into the U.S. A spokesperson reminded people, “The final decision on whether a person can enter the U.S. lies with the U.S. border authorities.” German authorities are monitoring the recent detention of its citizens and investigating whether these were isolated incidents or indicative of a shift in immigration policies. Spokesperson Sebastian Fischer said, “Once we have a clear picture, we will then, if necessary, adjust our travel and security advice.” Two German tourists and one green card holder were arrested upon entering the U.S. The two tourists were sent back to Germany after their cases were resolved, but both endured lengthy ordeals. Update – March 20 at 11:10 a.m. PDT: The United Kingdom has also updated its advisory for the United States, writing on its website, “You should comply with all entry, visa and other conditions of entry. The authorities in the U.S. set and enforce entry rules strictly. You may be liable to arrest or detention if you break the rules.” Expand 6 1 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/215/#findComment-8612648

suomi March 20 Share March 20 from the article: Administration’s Details on Deportation Flights ‘Woefully Insufficient,’ Judge Says In an angry order, the judge, James E. Boasberg, told the Trump administration to explain why he should not find that officials had violated his instructions for the flights to return to the United States. Judge Boasberg’s three-page order was a remarkable display of frustration with an administration that has sought not only to use the extraordinary powers of the wartime law, the Alien Enemies Act, to pursue its immigration agenda, but has also stubbornly refused to provide even the most basic information about the deportation flights. On Thursday, the government finally filed court papers under seal to Judge Boasberg, but hours later, he revealed in his order that the papers “repeated the same general information about the flights” that department lawyers had already given him in previous court filings and hearings. Appearing to reach the end of his patience, Judge Boasberg, who has a reputation for being a measured and understated jurist, gave the government a series of ultimatums. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/us/politics/trump-deportation-venezuela-tren-de-aragua.html 12 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/215/#findComment-8612717
