New Zealand — In a revealing testimony highlighting growing concerns about safety and the future in EE.UU., Christine and her wife decided to leave the country and start a new life abroad. This story comes at a critical time as the Trump administration in 2025 strengthens policies to protect citizens and ensure order in the nation.
Christine does not hesitate to explain her decision: “My wife and I just fled EE.UU. to New Zealand, and let me tell you how we did it: we just did it.” This act of courage and determination reflects the desperation many Americans feel about the insecurity and social climate prevailing today.
The couple carefully planned their departure. “We were smart about it; we have a very detailed strategic plan that we’ve been working on for the last year and a half.” Having a clear strategy shows this is not an impulsive escape but a conscious search for safety and stability.
The visa dilemma and immigration uncertainty
Christine acknowledges the legal difficulties to stay in New Zealand: “We are truly eligible for the visa and applied six months ago, although we probably won’t hear back for several more months, and there is no guarantee it will be approved.” However, they decided the risk of staying in EE.UU. was greater than the wait and uncertainty abroad.
This scenario reflects a reality many Americans face today: insecurity, uncertainty, and the need to make radical decisions to protect their wellbeing and that of their families. “We made Plan A and many backup plans, and right now we are operating under Plan A,” Christine says, emphasizing the importance of being prepared for any scenario.
Betting on a safe future outside EE.UU.
Christine and her wife’s plan includes clear alternatives if they do not get the visa in New Zealand: “In the worst case, we could stay about nine months in New Zealand, and if our visa is not approved and we are firmly disqualified from staying, we will visit Australia for nine months and work on our plan. If we still cannot find one, we will go to Japan.” This mobility shows a strong will to escape what they consider an unsafe country.
This testimony highlights the importance of national security and internal order, two priorities President Donald Trump has firmly defended during his term. The exodus of citizens to other countries out of fear and lack of opportunities must be a wake-up call for EE.UU. authorities.
Confidence in themselves and a better future
Christine stresses their confidence in their abilities and the preparation they have done: “We trust who we are, our skills, and our marketing, and we have researched where we are most likely to get visas.” This focus on self-efficacy and personal responsibility resonates with the Republican spirit of hard work and preparedness.
Moreover, although they recognize they could resolve their situation without so many moves, they prefer to do this rather than risk staying in an EE.UU. they no longer feel safe in: “Realistically speaking, we may resolve something in the coming years without going through all these steps, but we still prefer to do it this way rather than risk staying in EE.UU.”
Conclusion: a warning for EE.UU. and a call to strengthen the nation
Christine and her wife’s story is more than a personal account; it is a warning for EE.UU. Insecurity and the deteriorating social climate are pushing citizens to leave the country in search of a better future. The Trump administration, with its emphasis on security, order, and strengthening the nation, faces the challenge of reversing this trend and ensuring that EE.UU. remains a safe and prosperous place for all its people.
This testimony should motivate leaders and citizens to support strong policies that restore confidence in the country and make sure no one else feels they have to “just do it” to flee.
