Anyone gone through customs with an updated passport recently?

[AnamethatstartswithE]

I haven't posted in a looooong time. I updated my name and gender marker on my passport in 2018, and renewed it early this past December. Has anyone with an updated passport gone through US customs since the new administration took over? I've heard horror stories about foreign tourists and green card holders having problems and am worried they might start targeting us.

Has anyone had any recent experiences?

Welcome back!

I just got my first passport in January with all the information updated. I haven't used it yet. There are many countries that are warning travelers to check with the embassies or with U.S. Customs before traveling to see if they will have any issues.

I should have been more clear, I'm a US citizen. I'm concerned about coming back in after a trip.

I misunderstood your comment at first.  I thought that you were advising E to stay away for the time being.  I'm not an American citizen but the way things have gone makes me think that it would be a reasonable suggestion.
