What happened to the Norwegian student?
In the most recent case, 21 -year -old Norwegian student claimed that he was detained at Newark Airport due to the MIMS of US Vice President JD Vance over his phone. He alleged, “I refused to give my phone password, so he threatened me to fined at least 5,000 $ 5,000 or sentence to five years in jail.” The picture featured Vance’s bald, egg -shaped head which went viral in March.
What did the US officials say?
However, US officials denied this and said that the student was stopped for admitting drug abuse. The emphasis of Trump administration to investigate social media is also due to the federal government’s action on pro -Palestinian protests in American colleges and campuses in 2024.
