US, 'visas revoked' for those who insult Kirk: there is also a German
In a post on X, the US State Department announced that it had revoked at least six visas
"The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans". This is how the US State Department announced it had revoked the visas of some foreign citizens, one even of German origin.
The 'death to Americans' in question is none other than the killing of Charlie Kirk, the activist shot in the neck on 10 September while speaking from a stage in Utah. 'The State Department,' reads X, 'continues to identify the visa holders who celebrated Kirk's heinous murder.
It is not known how many visits have been revoked. There are at least six, all mentioned - with their respective online comments - in the Department's post: 'Here are just a few examples of foreigners who are no longer welcome in the United States'.
Si tratta di quattro sudamericani (Argentina, Paraguay, Brasile e Messico), un africano (Sudafrica) e un europeo (Germania). Quest’ultimo ha scritto: «Quando i fascisti muoiono, i democratici non si lamentano». L’utente dal Sudafrica ha scritto che gli americani «sono feriti dal fatto che la manifestazione razzista si sia conclusa con un tentativo di martirio» e che l’evento «è stato usato per creare un’atmosfera di astroturfing (persone retribuite con modalità non trasparenti, ndr) in un movimento di nazionalisti bianchi senza scrupoli». Commenti simili anche tra i profili sudamericani, che etichettano la retorica di Kirk come «nazista», «misogina» e «razzista».
All of the relaunched instances end with an entry: 'Visa revoked'. Visas revoked. Operations that are part of the Trump administration's campaign to punish the 'violence of the radical and extremist left'. 'Trump and Rubio (US Secretary of State, ed.) will defend our borders, our culture and our citizens by enforcing our immigration laws,' the post concludes, 'foreigners who take advantage of American hospitality while celebrating the murder of our citizens will be deported.
