Is Donald Trump About to Launch a Denaturalization Purge?
Briefly

In a retrospective on the Trump administration’s denaturalization efforts, the article highlights the 2017 DOJ cases against men convicted of child sexual abuse as a limited, targeted initiative. However, a shift appears imminent with Trump's plans for deporting homegrown criminals, suggesting a move towards broader denaturalization. Discussing recent proposals in Congress that would restrict funding for deporting citizens, the article emphasizes the growing fear among naturalized citizens that they may be increasingly vulnerable under the current administration, which historically has escalated its immigration enforcement tactics across various groups.
"In 2017, President Trump's DOJ filed denaturalization cases against five men convicted of child sexual abuse, indicating a focused but limited approach to citizenship removal."
"The homegrowns are next, the homegrowns. You've got to build about five more places,... to deport homegrown criminals," Trump stated, signaling potential expansion of denaturalization.
