    Your quoted text clearly states she was meeting clients. That’s not allowed on a tourist visa (same rule applies in Switzerland). She was then told she could not enter the country and had to turn around – she refused and was put in detention (same rule applies to anyone visiting Switzerland). Other reports note that she was doing her online courses from NYC.

      It clearly states she was meeting people who happened to be clients online for coffee. And nothing about consulting, so clearly you are going off of other sources

        As noted in the article, she had been making a multitude of trips to NYC to meet with her clients all while on a tourist visa. That is a textbook visa violation and the same treatment would have happened under Biden.

          No, as noted in the article she took multiple trips to US to vacation and meet friends, this occasion being for her birthday, and that while here she met with some students who she happened to teach online. You’ve seemingly decided to reinterpret this all into some other sequence of events while still claiming the article as your source

          The courts have consistently ruled that the Due Process Clause and the presumption of innocence apply to all individuals within the United States, including non-citizens, whether they are legal residents, undocumented immigrants, or in the country on visas.
