Cool: Trump Admin To Expand Denaturalization Push

Citizenship is privilege for foreign born citizens, not a right. And, there are many who got easy citizenship which they did not earn
U.S. planning aggressive expansion of denaturalization push, aiming for 250 cases by fall
The Trump administration expects to try to revoke the U.S. citizenship of more than 250 foreign-born citizens by the end of the fiscal year in October, a Justice Department official told CBS News, outlining the unprecedented use of the federal government’s denaturalization powers.
The Justice Department, which can revoke the citizenship of naturalized citizens accused of obtaining their citizenship illegally or through fraud, is planning to file at least 250 denaturalization cases in federal courts across the country in fiscal year 2026, which ends on Sept. 30.
While 250 cases would make up a small percentage of the 24 million estimated naturalized citizens in the U.S., it still marks a dramatic escalation in the use of denaturalization, a legal procedure that has rarely been used by past administrations.
Between 1990 and 2017, for example, the U.S. government filed an average of just 11 denaturalization cases per year.
Yeah, well, most earned their citizenship and showed they wanted to be a part of the US melting pot. Too many now have previous presidents simply grant them citizenship without going through the steps.
I’m hoping Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and some others are on the list.
