Chris Landry, a Canadian national and green card holder living in New Hampshire, was denied entry back into the United States after a family vacation and had his green card revoked. He was detained for questioning at a Maine border crossing, where he was informed of decades-old misdemeanor convictions. Landry, who had previously supported President Trump, now feels differently, blaming the current administration’s policies for the sudden change in his legal status after having lived in the country since he was a toddler.

Contemporary conservative politics and the MAGA movement often rely on conspiracy theories, with the Jeffrey Epstein case being a prominent focus. Initially, Trump’s team fueled speculation about a “client list” and promised damaging revelations.
