Trump Revokes 85,000 Visas in Expanded US Immigration Crackdown

The Trump administration has revoked approximately 85,000 visas in the past year as part of an expanded US immigration crackdown, affecting foreign visitors, workers, and students. The revocations, driven by concerns over public safety and behavior, have impacted around 8,000 international students, reflecting a significant policy shift.

The State Department has cited various factors behind the visa cancellations, including alleged criminal conduct. The move comes amidst a series of restrictive measures, including a halt on immigration from 19 countries and new visa policies targeting individuals suspected of involvement in anti-Christian attacks in Nigeria.
