Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 09:15:13 A British tourist has been detained by ICE and is currently incarcerated in Washington ... The U.S. is not a safe place to travel anymore. https://bsky.app/profile/jenniferlcroft.bsky.social/post/3ljxjdhfv4s22 https://laragelya.substack.com/p/ice-has-captured-and-detained-a-british |

Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 09:53:28 @Natasha_Jay Shocking, but not surprising these days. Lots of offers of help with funds, visits and contacting a lawyer in the Tacoma area for her though on bluesky, so hopefully there'll be better news soon. |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 10:29:22 @Natasha_Jay Not to make light of a horrible situation, but is there anything quite as British as "A friend is sending funds so she can buy basic necessities such as tea" 😭 |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 10:47:56 @Natasha_Jay I’m wondering what “an incorrect visa” is. As murricans we have no idea what people need to have to come here, but once were ecumenical with Brits. Every day here I feel more outraged and sad, wih a sense of impending doom, as if on a melting iceberg calved off from the mother. |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 11:00:41 @gentlegardener @Natasha_Jay It used to be that if your paperwork wasn't 100% in order then US Immigration officials would simply stamp your passport "entry refused" and put you on the first plane back to your home country. Or more likely (especially if you were polite & white) if the mistake was a very small one they'd let you in anyway. And it works both ways, I know a number of Americans who have been refused entry to Britain for various reasons to do with invalid visas or incomplete paperwork. But this incarceration thing that seems to be happening now is a whole new ballgame, at least for white citizens of western European countries. |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 10:48:34 Said it before, but, again US is not safe to travel to. Especially if you’re a #poc , #woman , or have ever advocated for #democracy Treat the US as you would have treated a trip to communist #Russia or Hitlerian Germany. #Boycottslavery |

Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 11:13:15 @Natasha_Jay also happened to a German tourist (who's hopefully on their way home soon) https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/03/ice-german-tourist-detained-immigration |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 11:32:25 @Natasha_Jay here’s what is needed per uk.gov to come here. To the states. https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/usa/entry-requirements |

Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 11:33:35 If you wouldn’t go touring in North Korea, don’t visit the US. US has been particularly hard on women of childbearing age #Boycottsexism |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 11:40:31 @Natasha_Jay what worries me is that these stories of white people being detained (like the two German tourists) must mean there is a massive number of non-white, not polite, not middle class people that are trapped in the system but we don't hear about them because it's just business as usual. Not that these people don't deserve attention and justice as well, and I hope they are freed as soon as possible. |

Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:00:49 @Natasha_Jay i wilkl try and make her story viral on reddit |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:05:01 @Natasha_Jay has anyone seen an active database of detained individuals? #AbolishICE |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:06:10 @Natasha_Jay again, a woman. USA is not a country for visitors any longer. |

Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:09:19 @Natasha_Jay I bet they won't be sending her to one of the concentration camps where they send my people. |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:41:14 @josuex @Natasha_Jay They did send a German tourist entering from Mexico to one of those places |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:13:24 @Natasha_Jay two Germans are detained, too. |
Föderation EN Mo 10.03.2025 12:38:39 @Natasha_Jay Honestly the story lost all sense to me when they mentioned that she is Vegan. Like, WTF this has to do with the detention? |
