Visa Purge 2025: Cheering Charlie Kirk's Death Gets You Deported Faster Than TikTok Trends
On Monday night, Secretary of State Marco Rubio hopped on X to announce that visa revocations 'are under way' for non-U.S. citizens celebrating the tragic assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was fatally shot last Wednesday in Utah. As if the Trump administrationâs immigration crackdown targeting hundreds of students with pro-Palestinian views wasnât dramatic enough, now foreigners must beware: if you praise, rationalize, or even crack a dark joke about Kirkâs death, expect your coveted visa to vanish faster than a Wi-Fi signal in a basement. Deputy Secretary Christopher Landauâs social media snitch fest apparently kicked off the investigation, as hosting murder celebrators is apparently below Americaâs hospitality standards, per Rubioâs pressuring that 'visiting' implies good behavior â not political murder fandom. State Department reps are tight-lipped about exactly how many visas have been yanked, but hey, if youâve been caught 'cheering the public assassination of a political figure,' itâs time to pack your bagsâno refunds.
