U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials focused on denaturalization were sent to offices nationwide, sources say.

The Trump administration is dramatically expanding an effort to revoke U.S. citizenship for foreign-born Americans as it works to curb immigration, according to two people familiar with the plans.

Over the past several months, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the agency within the Department of Homeland Security that’s responsible for legal immigration, has been sending experts to its offices around the country or reassigning staff members to focus on whether some citizens processed through those offices could now be denaturalized, these people said.

The goal of emphasizing naturalized citizens is to supply the office of immigration litigation with 100 to 200 possible cases per month, one of the people familiar with the plans said. Such cases have typically been very rare, involving people who concealed criminal histories or previous human rights violations during their application processes. The New York Times first reported the quota.

    I don’t wish harm but to very few people, and Pam Bondi is one of them. I would pay big money to be able to punch that bitch right in the kisser.

    This hearing was a total disaster for Bondi. There was no hiding what a monster she is, and it’s now come out that photographers captured images of her burn book which included info from illegal DOJ surveillance of members of Congress search histories of the Epstein files. Bondi is spying on Congress while they review the Epstein files, a blatant violation of the separation of powers.

    1 in 5 people you meet lack empathy. I got these numbers from reporting the US military made to the office of general accounting. The military gives everyone a psychiatric evaluation. Its the only place to get a accurate number on this. Due to the fact that almost all of them avoid any type of therapy. I can’t find the link right now but if I find it later I will post it.

      The only caveat is that people who want to be soldiers aren’t necessarily representative of the general population. Plenty of people join the military because they want to kill people.

      I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the number is around 20% of those who enlist.

    Was it because she started screaming about how much the DOW is up? (much less than it was projected to be under competent leadership)

        TBH with employment down and costs of living soaring I couldn’t care why the DOW is up, the DOW has always gone up, I’m more interested in those Epstein questions she refused to answer in order to scream about the DOW.

    The lack of commom decency from these “federal officials” reveals their false claims of holding certain beliefs as their own, rather than just an advertisement to gain entry to these offices. So of course it’s treason when their lies fall on un-groomed ears so they are ‘performing’ as their freedom depends on it. The flippant responses to seasoned congress members - the newly installed beligerant and farsical congress members - the lack of quality acting is only complemented with the actual white supremist beliefs echoed and chanted repeatedly, while kissing up to thier own in the most bizarre fashion of ‘authority’ worship I have seen outside of B-movie dialog.
