Can a trustee remove all the money from a trust?
No, a U.S. citizen has an absolute, inherent right to enter the United States; therefore, you cannot be "denied entry" in the legal sense. However, this right does not mean you are immune from being detained, questioned, searched, or significantly delayed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) upon your return. While CBP cannot permanently bar a citizen from entering, they have the legal authority to hold a citizen for secondary screening if there are security concerns, issues with identity verification, or pending legal matters (such as outstanding arrest warrants). In extreme cases of suspicion—such as suspected criminal activity or security risks—a citizen may be held in detention for an investigation. It is also important to note that if you travel on a foreign passport, you are technically entering as a foreigner, which can complicate the process, though you still possess the right to enter as a citizen if you can prove your citizenship. In short, they cannot legally banish you from your own country, but they can make the return process extremely rigorous.
