CBP searched a French scientist's phone and found messages critical of the Trump administration and its treatment of scientists. They confiscated his phone and computer and sent him back to Europe.

CBP found messages criticizing the Trump administration’s treatment of scientists, which, according to the agency, “conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism.”
