As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now?
As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now?
Until now this would have been a stupid question - this is my home. But we're in a strange timeline. My background is I was born in the UK, met first husband, married, got green card, that went tits up, divorced, met husband 2, found forever love, married, naturalized in 2021. Have my passport and everything.
It's my dad's birthday, and he lives in the UK. I want to go back and celebrate, but I'm nervous about reentry into the US. I naturalized during the Biden presidency, and I am a Democrat, I feel nervous that I have a target on my back. I have a home and pets here. Am I ridiculous for worrying or should I be cautious about leaving right now?

Trump immigration raids snag U.S. citizens, including Native Americans, raising racial profiling fears
Those who are getting caught in Immigrations and Customs Enforcement raids are being targeted because of their race or skin color, according to witnesses.
In all fairness they seem to be detaining plenty of white women too
That’s just what gets the most media because pretty white women getting harassed by ICE will get a lot more clicks than all the brown skinned people getting harassed by ICE
And white men. They detained a German guy and dragged him all over the country.
If it’s the same case I saw, he was gay. So, not exactly not a minority.
Yeah there’s been multiple reports of white Canadian women being detained for weeks before being let go
There have also been multiple articles about administration looking for ways to denaturalize citizens. They may be looking for a victim to try it out on.
And Brits (relevant to OP). But they had the wrong visa.

Amazing. Where are they going to deport them to, the actual state their tribe were from before they were forced out of there and onto a barren reservation?
I know that they're probably deported to El Salvador because E.S. made bitcoin their national currency.

It looks like it no longer is because it was a failure. I bet they still have a way to launder bribes through their system though
In December, 2024, El Salvador, in an agreement for a $1.4 billion loan from the IMF, agreed to reduce bitcoin purchases, removed the mandatory acceptance of Bitcoin requirement on merchants, will no longer accept tax payments with the asset, and will wind-down its involvement in the Chivo wallet.[77][78]
