DOJ targets 17 naturalized citizens in unprecedented denaturalization push

The Justice Department announced it will move to revoke the citizenship of 17 people nationwide in an unprecedented denaturalization push. Some targets are accused of fraud or minor sexual abuse; denaturalization is a rare federal court process. Officials say the initiative is part of an intensified effort under the current administration, with 24 denaturalization cases filed under Biden and a pace that has outstripped the prior year under Trump, including a dozen denaturalizations in May. Homeland Security Secretary Mullin vowed to continue denaturalizing and removing aliens.
