Rubio: U.S. has begun revoking visas over 'celebrating' Kirk's death

The U.S. government has begun revoking visas of foreign nationals celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination to deter political violence, with over 6,000 student visas previously revoked for similar reasons.

  • On Monday, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed that the government has started canceling visas for foreign nationals who celebrated the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
  • This measure comes after Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley State University as part of his group’s America Comeback Tour, along with reports of some individuals expressing approval of his killing.
  • Vice President J.D. Vance urged listeners on Kirk's Monday podcast to report to employers anyone caught celebrating Kirk's death.
  • Rubio warned that individuals in the U.S. on visas who applaud the killing of American citizens will face deportation, making it clear that those who support such acts are not welcome in the country.
  • These measures indicate a U.S. crackdown on visa holders engaging in harmful conduct, reinforcing that celebrating political killings can lead to visa denial or revocation.
