Summary
Germany is monitoring U.S. detentions of its citizens after three Germans were recently held by immigration authorities.
Two tourists were detained at the Mexico-U.S. border and later deported, while a Green Card holder, Fabian Schmidt, remains in custody in Rhode Island.
The German Foreign Ministry is assessing whether these cases reflect a broader policy shift under President Trump, whose administration has intensified immigration crackdowns.
Germany may adjust its travel advice based on further developments. U.S. officials have not clarified why Schmidt was detained.
(Didn’t read the article)
You’re being detained by a foreign state and your country gets your back by “adjusting traveling recommendations”
haha I’m sure Germany is acting here but the summary reads funny
It will take the world a while to move away from the US. It’s built itself as a relatively trusted, albeit flawed, nation to all the major western powers.
It’s sad to see the destruction of my country’s reputation, sadder to see 50% of the population take pride in it. I’d leave if I could
+36%, dont forget the ones that didnt care to vote at all! (or -36% depending on how you see that group)
Yeah those 36% are in for a rude shock when it finally smacks home to them what is actually happening. Makes me wonder if all the content that is out there has essentially pushed politics aside. Whereas before all the easy access to social media or when it was limited to a couple there was still time in the day to catch the news etc.
