Newsweek is famous for sensationalized headlines. The actual article is correct, but the headlines barely match the article. This website is built for being posted to reddit, where hardly anyone will click the link let alone actually read the article.
During the election, they’d post articles like “Trump DEVASTATED by new poll results”, and it would be something like Trump being down 1.5%.
The travel advice from the European countries that have issued a “warning” is that “an ESTA doesn’t guarantee entry to the US” and “the decision regarding your entry is made by the customs and border protection officer”. That’s not a travel warning. None of these countries have said not to go to the US, just that if you choose to go to the US, you are not guaranteed entry.
The Netherlands has issued the closest thing to a travel warning specifically for LGBT people.. They warn that only the gender markers M/F are currently accepted by the US government and link to the human rights watch website regarding safety for LGBT people in the US. That page also has the same “warning” that CBP makes the determination of entry and ESTA doesn’t guarantee entry. But literally right at the top of the page, the US is in green, which means that the Dutch government currently considers the US a safe country to visit.
To be clear, I think there should be actual travel warnings against travel to the US. I definitely think the US should be yellow for the Netherlands. But I would not call clarifying border entry proceedures “a travel warning”.
