Just had a prominent colleague return from a conference in Italy. He was stopped at the border and questioned for several hours, making him miss his flight.

And he’s getting a lawyer and suing them right?

And don’t come back with some type of bs about how is he supposed to do that? I keep hearing from literally everybody.

Trump sues everyone in this country. You could sue anyone for anything sue them do something anything. Literally anything is better than nothing - write a fucking article! I keep hearing about everyone’s fucking friends. I don’t care about your fucking friend. Where are they? Why aren’t they fucking writing something? Why aren’t they doing altering? Literally anything with their position they have that’s much higher than the people I’m working with now who are attempting to help and they’re literally artists and people that work in grocery stores and retired folks meanwhile, scientists are getting stopped at the border and their friends are and telling us this bullshit while I don’t see any first hand accounts barely and when I do, they are just on social media!

They have power in their position where the fuck are they? Why aren’t they fucking telling everybody? Why aren’t they fucking suing them? Do something, anything, just do something!

Was your colleague stopped by the Italian border police or the ones in the USA?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Stopped at re-entry to the US.

Yes, so presumably your colleague went through the passport control when leaving Italy and when entering the United States. I am asking where the long delay happened.
