Given the risk of being picked up by ICE, I wonder how many people are stupid enough to actually trust this administration.

In the news last weekend:

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks
Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone’

The article notes British, German, Canadian, and New Zealanders caught up in arbitrary ICE detentions... despite proper visas/permits and even when leaving the country.

No one is safe. Is seeing a soccer match really worth risking weeks or months detained under conditions that contravene POW treatment treaties?
