Unless, of course, you are someone the US government wants arrested. I recall there was a recent case in Canada where someone, Meng Wanzhou, was detained for years for what was not a crime there.

They said she had defrauded a US bank. It seemed bogus to me. I thought it was a big event in world history. https://science1arts2and3politics.substack.com/p/when-the-united-states-of-america

Then they appointed somebody as head of state of a foreign country.

Then the US stole all the money of Venezuela, Afghanistan, and Russia. They even stole the possessions of Russian citizens who hadn't done anything. That was pretty much declaring themselves a worldwide police state.

I was amazed by all this but US citizens don't seem to feel it anything unusual. After all, it's "the rule of law."
