This is a red alert for anyone in Canada planning on travelling to the United States. People are being denied entry for mild political positions that contradict the current regime.
But, and this is crucial, when it happens at airport pre-clearance in Canada, worst-case is DENIAL, not detention.

Heard multiple reports of Canadians being asked at US custom desks in 🇨🇦 airports what they think of the current USA administration. Those who responded w mild comments like "glad it is not the same here" were refused entry and banned from entering the 🇺🇸 for 5 years.

james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country
"...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

Here’s my ask of you today:
I want you to engage with EVERY article/post you see about Signalgate. Like, comment, share. Every one.
The reason why the media kept talking about Hillary’s emails was because every story & post about it got massive engagement.
Sound good?

WHAT TO DO IF ICE COMES KNOCKING
1) REMEMBER YOU HAVE RIGHTS
2) ICE CAN AND WILL LIE TO YOU
3) THEY CANNOT ENTER WITHOUT A WARRANT SIGNED BY A JUDGE
4) THEY WILL USUALLY NOT HAVE A WARRANT SIGNED BY A JUDGE AND WILL OFTEN LIE AND SAY THEY HAVE ONE. ASK TO SEE IT BEFORE THEY ENTER
