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.

Strenghtens me in my decicion to ditch the vacation with my daughter, in that i wanted to show her some US cities and visit a friend.
If it stays like this, my feet will not willingly touch US ground in the future. I'd be too afraid for myself, let alone for my child.
(not that i felt safe in the US on the last two trips many years ago. Would not immigrate there for money. )
