Trump revokes visas of six foreigners accused of mocking Charlie Kirk

The Trump administration has taken action by canceling the visas of six individuals from abroad, accused of making light of the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

On Tuesday, the State Department announced it had scrutinized social media posts and videos related to Kirk’s demise at a Utah college campus on September 10.

After uncovering troubling material, officials advised that the visas of six foreign nationals be rescinded.

This group included an Argentine who criticized Kirk for dedicating his life to spreading divisive rhetoric and suggested he deserved to face eternal punishment, along with a South African who remarked that those mourning Kirk were upset over what they perceived as a failed act of martyrdom.

Additionally, a Mexican citizen also lost his visa after stating that Kirk died as a racist and misogynist, implying that some individuals meet deserved fates.

A Brazilian national said Kirk ‘died too late’ and blamed the conservative activist for ‘a Nazi rally where they marched in homage to him.’

The final two foreigners were a German national and Paraguayan national. The former said ‘when fascists die, democrats don’t complain’ and the latter called Kirk a ‘son of a b**** [who] he died by his own rules.’ 

The revelation came after Donald Trump posthumously awarded Kirk America’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Kirk’s widow Erika fought back tears as she thanked Trump for giving him the ‘best birthday gift ever.’

The president, who returned from a whirlwind Middle East peace mission late last night, said: ‘I raced back halfway around the globe. I was going to call Erika and ask, ‘Could you maybe move it to Friday?’ but I didn’t have the courage to call.’

‘But you know why I didn’t call? Because I heard today was Charlie’s birthday.’

Kirk’s parents were also in attendance for the ceremony despite remaining out of the public spotlight after their son’s death.

At Kirk’s funeral in September, Trump called him a ‘great American hero’ and ‘martyr’ for freedom.

The administration and its supporters have targeted people for their comments about Kirk, leading to firings or other discipline of journalists, teachers and others, and raising free speech concerns.

Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio ‘will defend our borders, our culture, and our citizens by enforcing our immigration laws,’ the State Department said.

‘Aliens who take advantage of America’s hospitality while celebrating the assassination of our citizens will be removed.’

Vice President JD Vance and other top U.S. officials have encouraged people to call out offensive language about Kirk that they see online.

In an unusual post to X last month, Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau asked social media users to copy him on any relevant posts, saying he was personally ‘disgusted to see some on social media praising, rationalizing, or making light of the event, and have directed our consular officials to undertake appropriate action.’

The administration has expelled South Africa’s ambassador to the United States for comments critical of Trump, revoked a visa for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to attend the U.N. General Assembly and yanked the visas for British punk-rap duo Bob Vylan. 

It said it is reviewing the status of the more than 55 million current U.S. visa holders for potential violations of its standards.

Those actions have been criticized by civil rights groups as violations of constitutional protections for freedom of speech, which apply to anyone in the United States and not just to American citizens.
