    The US are really working hard to get prohibition, 30’s great depression, and McCarthyism all at once.

    You think it’s going to stop there? US citizens will soon have to do the same, or be on the no fly list.

    “In addition to social media histories, Customs and Border Protection would add other new data collection fields, including email addresses and telephone numbers used in the last five years, as well as the addresses and names of family members, the notice reads.”

    Wtf I was planning to visit NYC but this is crazy man.

    🤦🏻‍♀️ What about the people who don’t use social media? Or have used social media for less than 5 years?

    Or people who disclose a suspiciously wholesome 5 years of social media use? Or use social media platforms that allow backdated posts - how well are those going to be scrutinised?

    Why am I even asking? This is all so stupid. People only want to travel to places where they won’t be immediately grilled on what they think of the dictator. (…Out of curiosity, what’s the process like for North Korea? Strictly for comparison.)

      I’m pretty sure the only posts I’ve put on Facebook in the past five years are all a version of, “Hey, I’m just checking in so y’all know I’m still alive.” I haven’t updated my personal information on there in about a decade.

    None of you better come here. I’m not saying this because I don’t want you here, I’m saying it because we are literally on fire right now. We have a lot of finding out to do.

      Check under your couch for Russians. Or Venezuelans. Or is it Chinese? Whatever it is, it’s certainly not a home-made problem.

    We have already postponed our Disney trip until the cheeto is gone.

    I am prepared to go to Europe or Japan instead though if America can’t figure its issues out.

    I’ve been sending emails to hotel companies and urging them to oppose this. I urge you to contact your congresspeople and also companies in the travel, hospitality and tourism industry and demand they oppose this policy and more broadly ask them to stand up to Trump because he’s causing people to rightfully boycott the US.

    Also to everyone who is boycotting the US thank you so so much, I’m really grateful and as are so many Americans who also hate what the Trump regime is doing. The more people who boycott the more pressure it will put on companies to finally stand up against the Trump regime.

      I mean it genuinely is, seems like others are still in denial and not getting the message.

      European: Haha, yeah I hate foreigners too! Now, onto our vacation in the Florida Keys-

      Trump: No, you. I meant you. Get out.

      He’s getting his buddies those covid-era interest rates, one way or another. Our sacrifices are ones he’s willing to make.

      Pages 732 and 736 of project 2025 (50% complete already btw) outline the “suffolk banking system” that they’re forcing.

      Combine SCOTUS ruling on the 14th amendment in summer of 26 and you can start to see the narrative of canceled midterms. Dude jerks off to the thought of surpressing riots

    Wow. Next year’s World Cup is going to be either the biggest debacle, or played to empty stadiums (in the USA anyway). What a complete and utter fuck up.
