Amos Yee, a teenage blogger from Singapore, talks to reporters outside of the U.S. immigration field office after being released from federal custody following a U.S. immigration appeals court's decision to uphold his bid for asylum, Tuesday, Sept. 26, 2017, in Chicago. Yee, an atheist, was accused of hurting the religious feelings of Muslims and Christians in Singapore.
