The U.S. State Department revoked the visas of some foreigners who celebrated the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The U.S. State Department announced the revocation of visas for at least six foreigners who publicly celebrated the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on social media. The action has been criticized by supporters of free speech, and a legal defense group has offered free assistance to those affected. The revocations target individuals from Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay, and the Department emphasized that it is not obligated to host foreigners who wish for the death of Americans. Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously warned that foreigners who praise Kirk's death should prepare for deportation.

Kirk, founder of the group 'Turning Point USA', was a prominent figure in the conservative movement and was fatally shot in September, sparking national debates about political violence. The announcement came after Trump posthumously awarded Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
