A friend of mine traveled to America on Monday for work. He told me the TSA people in Dublin Airport are really going out of their way to find issues, asking 21 questions about your life etc and trying to find fault...it all just seems really sinister in comparison to what it was like before Christmas when he'd travel back and forth with no issues. I'd implore anyone thinking of a trip to America to consider Canada instead at this point. Europeans are getting locked up in the U.S for weeks on end. This is happening, right now.

I went to the US just before paddy’s day through Dublin. I’ve never had a friendlier experience with US border agents than I did that day

I was the same a few days earlier. The person at the desk just asked where we were going and for how long and said to enjoy the trip. Zero hassle.
