"Zero tolerance": Trump government revokes hundreds of thousands of visas

The Trump administration has revoked over 300,000 visas during its second term, citing strict enforcement against immigration violations, fraud, and threats to national security. The U.S. Department of State claims this represents the fastest rate of visa revocations by any government to date. Critics, including human rights organizations, argue that these actions undermine due process and freedom of expression, pointing to cases where visas were revoked for pro-Palestinian activists or individuals based on social media comments. While Trump promised to curb illegal immigration during his 2024 campaign, his policies have also made legal immigration more difficult through increased fees for certain work visas.
