In the united states, the trump administration is taking harsh measures against foreigners, particularly students who apply for visas. The fact that officials are also looking through the applicants' social media accounts has already been verified. According to a recent development, Mads Mikkelsen, a 21-year-old Norwegian tourist, alleges he was deported from the united states when authorities discovered a meme stored on his phone.
 
 Mads Mikkelsen claimed that the image he had saved on his phone showed a cartoonish face and bald head of US Vice President JD Vance.  Mikkelsen was questioned by immigration officials as soon as he arrived at the airport in New Jersey.


After escorting him to a designated room, the officers requested that he surrender his backpack, shoes, and cell phone.  The officials then allegedly charged him with involvement in right-wing extremism, drug trafficking, and terrorist plans.
 
 Mikkelsen further explained that the meme was intended as a joke and was automatically saved from a group messaging software.  The officials also took issue with one of his photos in which he was carrying a wooden pipe that had been handcrafted.


He stated, "I really didn't think that these innocent pictures would put a stop to my entry into the country, even though both had been automatically saved to my camera roll from a chat app."
 
 Mikkelsen claims that the officers coerced him into unlocking his phone and threatened to put him in jail or penalize him $5,000 if he didn't.
