German tourist and her friend wants to make art on a holiday trip in the US, but Trump's goons decide she is probably there for illegal work and throw her in a detention facility, just like MAGA wants it.

I hope the German government helps this couple sue the US to kingdom come.

German tourist held indefinitely in San Diego-area immigrant detention facility

The young woman had planned to spend a month with a friend in Los Angeles and then fly home to Berlin. But she’s been in federal custody since late January.

She has very little recourse, unfortunately.

I was detained for hours back in 2008 at a US border crossing, and I had a valid TN work visa. Didn't make any different.

The Homeland Security putz had decided he didn't like me taking an American job and drug it out until my employer and the client, both multinational conglomerates, got involved.
