Ah, but I follow events there and I HAVE lived there in the past. Besides,

Some German bread is tolerably good. I assume that you are not familiar with
Poilane.

Lived long term or just visited? Paid both German and US income tax at the same
time?

If Sara were the ONLY "right wing wacko", our freedoms might still stand
a chance!

The USA has always had more than its fair share of wackos of more than one
political persuasion. Sarah wanted to stop your Country from being involved
in squirmishes.

As a US ex-pat, one only pays income taxes to both countries if one's
income exceeds a certain threshold. This year, that amount for the full
year is $99,200. I doubt Erilar's income exceeds that threshold.
The biggest problem for American ex-pats these days is that the
American tax authority - the IRS, Internal Revenue Service - has put
the onus on banks where Americans have accounts to provide complete
information on those accounts, no matter where the banks are.
European banks have responded by either outright refusing to open
accounts to American ex-pats, or severely curtailing the services on
offer to those ex-pats.

Sincerely I was treated very fairly, kindly and efficiently when I
registered in Germany in the '80s. They asked me whether I wanted a
permission for 1, 2 or 5 years.
It might have helped that: a) I spoke a bit of German; b) I was
accompanied by an ESA secretary; c) I had a card from my home
institution from which I was on leave of absence
