U.S. Cancels Visas Of Six Foreign Nationals Over Social Media Posts Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Death
The U.S. State Department has canceled the visas of at least six foreign nationals after they posted messages on social media appearing to celebrate or justify the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
In a statement on X, the Department said the United States “has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death upon Americans.” The posts came from users in South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Paraguay, Germany, and Argentina — all of whom the Department declared “no longer welcome in the United States.”
Among the posts flagged were comments such as: “Kirk devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric” and “deserves to burn in hell” from an Argentine national; “He died being a racist, he died being a misogynist…there are people who deserve to die” from a Mexican national; and “Charlie Kirk was the reason for a Nazi rally…DIED TOO LATE” from a Brazilian national. Other posts included: “When fascists die, democrats don’t complain” (German national) and “Charlie Kirk was a son of a b** and he died by his own rules” (Paraguayan national).
The Department emphasized that U.S. officials, including the President and Secretary of State, will enforce immigration laws to protect citizens and culture, warning that anyone exploiting America’s hospitality while celebrating the killing of Americans will face removal.
