Alice Fraser thought she was being paranoid until her lawyer advised her jokes about Donald Trump and Elon Musk could be scrutinised at US airport

I'd be a lot more worried about being sent to an El Salvador prison without cause, not just being denied entry

as always, being denied entry is the best outcome, and workers who decide to deny people entry should honestly be celebrated for potentially saving lives.
