US resumes visas for foreign students but demands access to social media accounts

https://ground.news/article/us-visa-restrictions-on-ecowas-s...

Note: 565 linked sources in that

You can easily tell when someone isn't asking something in Good Faith just by the first couple of search engine hits. Dead giveaway.

This is not an example of the scenario esseph described. Foreign students are by definition not US citizens and thus don't have any inherent right to be in the country.

Now Google for keywords Trump + naturalization, filtering for results in the last 2 weeks. Or what he said about "deporting" citizens by birth for a longer period.

Aside: limiting the argument to things that have already happened is uninteresting to me; you skate where the puck is going. One can easily do this by applying the administrations internal logic, i.e. what they said/did in the past, and what the ultimate goal/result was, and mapping that to what they are doing now to extrapolate future actions.

Lots of links to fake news sites and Russian propaganda outlets. Not sources.

The justice.gov site literally states:

  The Department of Justice may institute civil proceedings to revoke a person’s United States citizenship if an individual either “illegally procured” naturalization or procured naturalization by “concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation.” 8 U.S.C. § 1451(a).
They're just going to enforce laws that have been on the books for decades, that's all they're stating. TPM is a far-left propaganda outlet, not surprising to find some histrionic takes on made up scenarios there to rile up the base.
