Why would Musk do this? It seems notable that one of Musk’s heroes is the current president of Argentina, Javier Milei, who has been credited with taking a “chainsaw” to the nation’s government. Milei, an avowed “free market,” “anti-woke” libertarian, took office in December of 2023, and has instituted what he calls an “austerity” budget, characterized by economic “shock treatment.” This strategy has involved making deep cuts to government spending on social welfare programs, devaluing the peso, and cutting thousands of government jobs, all in the hope of some vague libertarian glowup in the near to far future.
He has US citizenship, at least according to wikipedia. Much as I hate him the government can’t just revoke that afaik
It has been proven he lied and violated his visa when he first came to the U.S. Can they revoke citizenship over that?
Might be able to over providing aid to an enemy.
Just gotta get proof of a North Korean using star link.
To take your question seriously, yes, virtually the only way to deprive an American of citizenship is if an immigrant lied on their application in a way that would have made them ineligible for that citizenship. It’s extremely rare, often hard to prove, and generally not worth the trouble, plus risks creating a stateless person who could instead just be prosecuted for fraud, but it does happen.
Guess which president considered weaponizing it in his first term?
Depends on skin color.
Trump is planning on deporting legal US immigrants. There will be US citizens that get caught up in this. And it will be seen as a feature rather than a bug.
