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.

@randahl @mc they’ve been doing this to brown people even those with developed country passports for a long time through all administrations

It's even more telling how this single WASP case suddenly is a scandal while openly racist shit like this has gone on for much longer and nowadays at unprecedented scale when it comes to POC, innit.
