He posted on social media that he is visiting family and friends in Uganda. This has me worried that the Trump administration will try to mess with him when he flies back. After all, they were already "exploring" ways to strip him of his citizenship.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.
