[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you really believe CBP is monitoring your social media posts, and will detain you on your way back from Vieques because you were one of the 65 million people who made a disparaging remark about Trump on Twitter?

I agree that the federal government is too big, but this is taking that argument to an extreme.[/quote]

Yes CBP can ask you to hand over your phone and look through it to look through your social media apps.  I haven't flown internationally recently, but friends have told me this.

For those asserting that CBP can't/won't hold citizens.  Sure maybe for now they are being let through after a lot of questioning.  But this EO was implemented without prior notice, so no one saw it coming.  I am American-born, but also Muslim whose parents were born in a Muslim country that isn't on the list yet.  I would not take the chance of going overseas because I can't guarantee that my own government won't put out a stricter EO.  Nothing is guaranteed in these uncertain times.  You may think I'm being dramatic, and I'm happy that you have had the fortune of never being in this position.[/quote]
