Technically you only have the right to travel within the jurisdiction of the US. Foreign travel is a privilege.

I recall from international law that the reason foreign travel is a privilege is NOT because you can’t leave the country you are in. It’s because no other country is obligated to let you come in.

Please cite US code or a US court decision for this "privilege."

I did not realize I lived in a prison?

I can drive to the Mexican border or Canadian border at any time without asking anyone in the US gov’t for permission

I wound need/want permissions from the country I want to enter.

Yes, if you’re an opponent of Biden and his regime, your privileges, and even rights, get revoked by his Goon Squad.

Flew in from Miami Beach, B.O.A.C
Didn’t get to bed last night
On the way, the paper bag was on my knee
Man, I had a dreadful flight
I’m back in the U.S.S.R
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.S.R
Been away so long, I hardly knew the place
Gee, it’s good to be back home
Leave it ‘til tomorrow to unpack my case
Honey, disconnect the phone
I’m back in the U.S.S.R
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S
Back in the U.S
Back in the U.S.S.R
Well, the Ukraine girls really knock me out
They leave the West behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout
That Georgia’s always on my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my mind
Oh, come on!
Woo! (Hey)
Woo! (Yeah)
Woo! (Yeah)
Hell, yeah
Hey, I’m back in the U.S.S.R
You don’t know how lucky you are, boys
Back in the U.S.S.R
Well, the Ukraine girls really knock me out
They leave the West behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout
That Georgia’s always on my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my mind
Oh, show me ‘round your snow-peaked mountains way down south
Take me to your daddy’s farm
Let me hear your balalaikas ringing out
Come and keep your comrade warm
I’m back in the U.S.S.R, hey
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.S.R
Oh, let me tell you, honey
Hey, I’m back
I’m back in the U.S.S.R
Hey, it’s so good to be home
Yeah, back in the U.S.S.R

On the other hand, in the modern Russian Federation, the absolute right to cross the state border (coming and going) is explicitly guaranteed by the constitution (a citizen explicitly needs to waive the right to hold certain government positions, like those in which holding state secrets is required). Russia also absolutely refuses to extradite their citizens to ANY other country. Food for thought.

Some people will make any excuse to accept tyranny I guess.

While free people do not accept tyranny so easily.

We are not prisoners in our country. Our government can only prohibit travel to countries that we are in a declared war with.

That's what countries like the USSR & East Germany do, lock their citizens within a wall that is heavily armed and guarded.

Sure you want to stick with your statement?

Foreign travel is a privilege extended by the given foreign country not by the authority of the U.S. government to extend or deny.

But the foreign travel of migrants to the US appears to be a right.

Technically that is complete and total nonsense.

The privilege is being allowed to enter another nation not leaving this nation.

Foreign travel is a privilege.

Unlike the 160 countries that allow their people to cross our borders illegally.

Joe Biden approved
