Trump administration revokes 6 visas over comments about Charlie Kirk

The State Department revoked the visas of six non-U.S. citizens for celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. This action reflects the Trump administration's policy against speech endorsing political violence. The department stated it won't host foreigners wishing death upon Americans and will remove those celebrating such events. The individuals' nationalities include Mexican, Argentinian, South African, Brazilian, German, and Paraguayan. One Mexican national's comments about Kirk were cited as an example leading to visa revocation. Marco Rubio had previously stated visa revocations were underway for those praising Kirk's death. The Trump administration began re-screening visa holders, including those involved in pro-Palestinian activism. An attorney at FIRE criticized the administration for punishing people for their opinions, arguing it erodes freedom of speech. FIRE is suing the Trump administration to challenge deportations based solely on speech. The State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the matter.
