My husband just entered the U.S. for the first time, and the U.S. CBP agent who interviewed him was an Arab who joyfully shouted "Salaam aleikum, welcome to America" at the top of his lungs while stamping his passport, so I'd say it's pretty clear the atmosphere has changed.
Apparently he repeated it several times, loudly, while looking around to make sure all the other officers heard him. Must have been a rough four years 😂

I love my country so damn much. We made it. Onward and up.
P.S. there is still so much work to do, but we have been trying to get my husband a visa since 2017. We moved three countries and maybe a dozen houses. Every time we thought they couldn't screw us around anymore, they did. We're tired and numb, but we're coming home. It's a start
