Trump seizes on ‘moral character’ loophole as way to revoke citizenship

The thing is if second and third generation immigrants are okay now, what to say Trump will not go after them?

Does this mean Trump is going to start deportation white people that do crime in the US. The so called second and third generation or fourth generation whites that do crime? Are they safe?

What about drug users are they safe?

Using that matrix if that is what Trump is doing he may get deported him self being felon.

Trump seizes on ‘moral character’ loophole as way to revoke citizenship
A new justice department directive may signal a crackdown on US citizens as part of Trump’s deportation agenda

A justice department memo directing the department’s civil division to target the denaturalization of US citizens around the country has opened up an new avenue for Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda, experts say.

In the US, when a person is denaturalized, they return to the status they held before becoming a citizen. If someone was previously a permanent resident, for example, they will be classified as such again, which can open the door to deportation efforts.

The memo, published on 11 June, instructed the justice department’s civil division to “prioritize and maximally pursue denaturalization proceedings in all cases permitted by law and supported by the evidence”. Immigration matters are civil matters, meaning that immigrants – whether they are naturalized citizens or not – do not have the right to an attorney in such cases.

Muzaffar Chishti from the Migration Policy Institute, a non-partisan thinktank, explained that much of immigration law was based on discretion by government officials. To revoke a person’s citizenship, US officials must demonstrate that they are not of “good moral character” – a subjective and broad term with little defined parameters.

Now, the recent memo lists a broad range of categories of people who should be stripped of their naturalized citizenship status, providing further guidance as to who is not of good “moral character”. This included “those with a nexus to terrorism” and espionage, war criminals and those who were found to have lied in their naturalization process. Officials still need to prove their case, Chisthi explained.

Just make sure that "moral character" includes all the ten commandments and applies to everyone, as no one is above the law, including Presidents.

Then lock up all the Republicans cause you know they break commandments daily. You can deport them to their favorite "hell hole country".

 

We do not need any enhanced deportations. It should be slowed way down. Don't want to see Government employees put in danger for a vanity project.
