Good luck checking my laptop. I hope you enjoy looking at the UEFI password prompt. If You get past that, a LUKS password prompt awaits you. Finally, you have to guess my unlisted user name and password to get access to my system.

Fuck Trump and Musk with the same cactus.

If you're a citizen, sure, legally they cannot deny you entry (though they can confiscate your stuff)

If you're not a citizen, they'll just deny you entry altogether

Even non citizens have rights under the constitution.

That's true, but if push comes to shove and you're a non-citizen, they probably won't do something crazy like force you to decrypt things or arrest you they'll just deny you entry
