But how exactly is shouting "Fuck Trump" in front of LEOs considered an arrestable offense? https://www.buzzfeed.com/ravenishak/federal-agents-chasing-man-chicago-video

I don't get it. Is drive-by cursing/insults not considered protected free speech even if racist, sexist, xenophobic, directed at LEOs, etc. as long as it doesn't insinuate any violent threats at all?

A lady on Facebook stated her entire party is not what the political cartoon in question was portraying. I responded to her that there are factions in every party including hers that can beg to differ. She responded insisting all factions in her party agree with her and then went on to insult me...

Wouldn't CBP need to aggressively recruit more officers if they're going to assume even every single fellow American coming back from Colombia or Mexico is a drug trafficker? Talking about millions too.

Maybe. Almost forgot I notched in one international travel under the current administration so far when I went to Colombia last month to surprise my girlfriend for Valentine's Day. When I came back, it was a fast track as usual through Global Entry lane after answering no to CBP officer's...

Never did though. Otherwise, surely I wouldn't be holding an active/valid US passport let alone a REAL ID Virginia DL.

Does your specialty include immigration law?

I've heard in the news that CBP's been going very hard on even green card holders and residential aliens as much as visa travelers. Any idea if just as much for even US-born citizens too? Think carrying and whipping out my Maryland birth certificate could avoid or minimize the risk of losing my...

Right

As in foreseeing not even close to full capacity stadiums/arenas?

Even when an international event like Olympics, World Cup, etc. is scheduled to be held on US soil, it doesn't mean US embassies will be any more lenient on issuing B1 visas especially under the current administration. Right? Trying to get an idea for a partner of 4.5 years who lives overseas...

What's the typical outcome say if the former job candidate wins the discrimination suit?

Given that it happened 13 years ago, I'm sure it's already past the statute of limitation by now. I had a job interview with a non-profit organization set up by a recruiting agency. Somehow I vividly remember an interviewer asking me about my ethnicity although I can clearly tell we're both...

If racist encounters are considered protected First Amendment rights as long as it's just verbal and don't insinuate nor elevate to anything physical, then what was different about that incident in Arizona...
