The Trump administration is establishing a new section within the Justice Department to deal with the process of removing citizenship from foreign-born individuals who fraudulently obtained citizenship by failing to disclose past convictions for serious crimes -- including terrorism and war crimes.
The section, which will be within the DOJ’s Office of Immigration Litigation, will be dedicated to denaturalizing those who had failed to disclose they had been involved in criminal activity on their N-400 form for naturalization. It requires the government to show that citizenship was obtained illegally or "procured by concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation."
That form includes questions asking whether an applicant has been involved in genocide and torture among other serious crimes, if they have ever been part of a terrorist or totalitarian organization, if they had been associated with the Nazi government in Germany, and if they have been charged or convicted with a crime or served prison time. Targets for denaturalization are those who have made material breaches of those questions.
“When a terrorist or sex offender becomes a U.S. citizen under false pretenses, it is an affront to our system -- and it is especially offensive to those who fall victim to these criminals,” Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt said. “The new Denaturalization Section will further the Department’s efforts to pursue those who unlawfully obtained citizenship status and ensure that they are held accountable for their fraudulent conduct.”
The department has seen an increase in such cases both because of an increased effort by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to root out fraud, as well as Operation Janus -- an operation which began during the Obama administration and that identified hundreds of thousands of cases where paper fingerprint data was not entered into the centralized fingerprint database.

How about if they came in under a different family name and then married their brother to get him in illegally????
:)
Will Ilhan Omar (D-Somalia) be affected by this?
One can only hope.
Heh.......good thinking.
We had that rule in Canada, until Trudeau decided we were better off to give a terrorist who was convicted of murdering an American a $10.5 million reward. Being ruled by a leftist idiot who is supported by only 31% of the electorate is maddening.
You read my mind.......
I was thinking this could be trouble for Omar when I read the headline.
Soros
Trump is on a roll!
We may get to the point where we might start panting a little trying to keep up with everything he’s doing!
How about anyone who did so under false pretenses?
Committed felonies like identity fraud before and during their application?
Trump’s getting my hopes up again re: illegal immigration.
I don't know if he's playing checkers or 3-D chess but he's ten moves ahead of the Dems.
How about going after old Georgie Porgie Puddin’ & Pie Soros...and all his filthy ilk?
Waiting to see what he’ll come up with during the C virus panic...
George Soros should be first to go.
Ilhan Omar Pushing Agendas Of 57 Islamic Terror Countries
The rag-headed creep has an agenda no one could ever imagine.
Omar has been very busy-----setting up her world-wide terrorist connections.
Just a few weeks after her US election to Minnesota's state legislature, found her back in Somalia, the homeland "she fled in fear."
The sap-happy Omar is chatting up then-Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, a favorite for re-election.
He reportedly invited her---a US state legislator--- to appear beside him prior to the Somali (cough) election taking place.
The Minn legislator Endorsed Somalia’s New President.
Four Days Later, Omar’s BIL Had a Powerful Job in the Somali Administration.
What was the deal she made with the corrupt-ridden Somali govt? Are the violent Somalians she once fled,
privy to US security reports from Omar's current position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee? Duh.
==================================
A foray into foreign politics, should have disqualified her from getting US security clearance.
How did she get into the us? How did she get elected? How did she get US security clearance in Congress?
How many US govt documents has she falsified?
The terrorists ought to be shot.
