The Justice Department has identified 384 foreign-born Americans whose citizenship it intends to revoke, marking a significant expansion of denaturalization efforts as part of the Trump administration's broader immigration crackdown.
Senior DOJ officials told colleagues during a meeting last week that civil litigators in 39 U.S. attorneys' offices would soon be assigned to file cases against the individuals, an unnamed source told The New York Times.
The newspaper reported on Thursday that two others familiar with the plans confirmed the initiative, but they did not immediately make it clear what led officials to target the 384 individuals.
Under federal law, the government may seek to strip citizenship from individuals who obtained it through fraud, such as by concealing disqualifying information.
Some criminal convictions can also lead to denaturalization. The process requires the government to present evidence in federal court, making such cases complex and time-consuming.
Traditionally, denaturalization cases have been handled by specialists within the Justice Department's Office of Immigration Litigation.
The decision to assign the work more broadly to civil divisions across the country could sharply increase the number of cases, which have historically been rare.
Matthew Tragesser, a Justice Department spokesman, said officials are "pursuing the highest volume of denaturalization referrals in history" from the Department of Homeland Security.

Only 60,000,0713 left to go.
This is the oath that they all swear when they are naturalized...
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen
EVERY SINGLE naturalized citizen who has flown a Mexican, Israeli, Somali, Iranian, etc... flag at a protest, at their home, on their car, etc... should be sent packing TOMORROW.
THEY LIED!!!
Good though we need a lot more. I suspect it’s not exactly easy to strip someone of their citizenship. Hopefully they focus on Muslims and Hindus since they all lie anyways
Ilhan Omar comes to mind.
A start.
Soroznazi ?
What’s needed is a probation period for all immigrants before they have all the rights we do. Right now they have them right on arrival.
Add Soros to that list.
These are the worse of the worse. Get those filthy cretins the hell out of this country or they will continue to commit crimes forever. I would bet nearly ALL of them are stinking Rat voters, so no doubt the scumbag Rat leadership will try to prevent their deportation. The denaturalization process MUST be expanded into the millions.
Good. Biden/Harris were throwing citizenship at practically anything that could move. Ramp up the denaturalizations!
This is great. Whether an immigrant is illegal, legal with a visa or naturalized the tope 3 criteria for deporting should be:
1) Deport all who give aid and comfort to terrorist individuals and terrorist organizations.
2) Deport murderers, rapists...DUI, Drunk n Disorderly
3) Deport welfare parasites. Deport those who so much as apply for welfare.
To be in the US is a PRIVILEGE, not a RIGHT. Remove the PRIVILEGE from those who don’t deserve it.
We need to set priorities.
Don’t waste taxpayer money on immigrants who work honest jobs, take care of their family, sit beside us in church.
Used to be five years to citizenship eligibility
Well, it ain’t much but it’s a start.
Illhar Oman?
“Illhar Oman?”
Top of my list!
Good!
Now about ilhan......
