US revokes visas of six foreigners for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination

The United States government has revoked the visas of six foreign nationals who publicly celebrated the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on social media.

A spokesperson for the U.S. State Department confirmed the decision on Tuesday, describing the move as part of a broader effort to ensure that foreigners who “wish death on Americans” are not allowed to remain in the country.

“The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans,” the statement read, adding that officials continue to identify additional visa holders who praised or justified the killing.

According to Reuters, those affected include citizens of Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay. Each individual reportedly made inflammatory posts online following the death of Kirk, who was shot while addressing a crowd at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on September 10.

The suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, has been charged with aggravated murder and several related offenses. Prosecutors have not yet confirmed whether they will seek the death penalty.

Kirk, 31, was the co-founder of Turning Point USA and a prominent ally of former U.S. President Donald Trump. His death sparked nationwide outrage among conservatives and renewed debate about online extremism and political violence.
