U.S. Prioritizing Denaturalization of Citizens

Tuesday, July 01, 2025

The DOJ is prioritizing the revocation of US citizenship from individuals charged with certain crimes per this 11 June memo. The ten categories of crimes that could lead to citizenship being stripped range from "war crimes" to COVID loan fraud. Individuals "who pose a potential danger to national security, including those with a nexus to terrorism, espionage, or the unlawful export from the US of sensitive goods, technology, or information, raising national security concerns" will be among those prioritized for denaturalization.

Hey, where can we turn someone in who has been convicted of rape and 34 financial fraud felonies?

Many people are saying--good people on both sides--are saying that Melania is going to self-deport to Paris or some other sh!thole place...

I'm certain US Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Andrew Cuomo, and other AIPAC Democrats will come out and condemn this Trumpf denaturalization investigation of their fellow Democrat, Zohran Mamdani. Uh-huh.

In any case, boaz, GFY you pathetic leech.

It'll take a month, tops, for them to start denaturalizing non-criminal migrants and deporting en masse.

And you'll cheer as if you weren't lied to again like the moronic rube you are.

If they can strip citizenship from any American then they can take it from you.

To qualify for Medicaid, individuals generally need to have limited countable assets, typically no more than $2,000 for an individual and $3,000 for a couple in most states. However, certain assets are exempt and not counted towards this limit.
Countable Assets (generally include):
Cash and bank accounts (checking, savings, CDs)
Stocks, bonds, and other investments
Retirement accounts (IRAs, 401(k)s)
Real estate other than the primary residence
Some life insurance policies
Cash value of annuities
Exempt Assets (generally not counted):
Primary Residence: In most cases, the primary home is exempt, provided it meets certain equity and occupancy requirements (e.g., applicant must intend to return home if institutionalized, or a spouse or dependent relative lives there).
Personal Items: Clothing, jewelry, wedding rings, and other personal belongings are typically exempt.
Household Goods and Furnishings: Essential household furniture and appliances are generally not counted.
One Vehicle: The primary vehicle used for transportation is usually exempt.
Irrevocable Burial Plans: Funds set aside for burial expenses in an irrevocable pre-need funeral plan or burial fund are often exempt.
Life Insurance: Some life insurance policies, particularly those with low cash value or face value, may be exempt.
Business Assets: Assets used in a trade or business may be exempt under certain conditions.

Will Complaining about Israeli Genocide of Palestinians get citizens deported to Random Countries?

Is that the desired outcome?

To Shut up anyone not completely comfortable with Murder and Cultural destruction if it's Israel doing it?

I think that's the Goal behind this.

Fuck That.

13, 15: Y'all are pathetic. Really. Person's in a nursing home. You want to reveal your medical histories here, much less your real names? If everyone on the Retort could be found as easily as Laura, this place would get quiet quickly.

FWIW, I'm not counting on any blue wave in 2026, and I'm amazed Corky, Danforth, etc. have every two years touted the possibility of a Roe-mentum moment at the polls, or whatever it is this cycle. At least TonyRoma has the sense to stay away for months at a time.

I've got two kids in their 30s. Their political memories start around 9/11. They and many of their peers are turning into democratic socialists. Capitalism sucks, and they are seeing it.

All the voters in their late 20s and younger have grown up thinking that Gingrich-Bush II-Trump (especially the latter) are normal for US politics. (And Obama, Biden, ...) They don't have any frame of reference, and recent history is never taught in schools.

A lot of those immigrants whom Gracie and Boaz love to hate on are from patriarchal, autocratic countries who gladly vote Trump.

Yeah, and there are plenty of American citizens I wish smelled a little less natural.

Reminder that signing your name to an editorial asking the college to divest from a nation actively engaged in a genocide, said editorial being in a college newspaper can get you deported

So yes this will target political opponents

Thanks magat scum for destroying our nation

The version we've had since Saint Reagan is what sucks. When corporations became entirely beholden to profit GROWTH over everything is when we started down this miserable path.

No such thing as conservatives in DC anymore.

What we have now is the National Socialist American Workers' Party.

Db,

"I've got two kids in their 30s. Their political memories start around 9/11. They and many of their peers are turning into democratic socialists. Capitalism sucks, and they are seeing it."

You appear to be saying that economic opinions are the only defining differences between liberals and conservatives.

According to Newsweek, younger people are moving toward the Republican Party.

Not because they love capitalism, but for other reasons basically watching liberals and how they conduct their lives.

Thom Tillis Defends a Medicaid Scam

North Carolina's senator pledges not to vote for any budget unless it allows his state to keep fleecing you.
On Saturday, Senator Thom Tillis (R., N.C.) voted against advancing the Senate Republicans' corrupt and irresponsible budget proposal, evidently because it isn't corrupt and irresponsible enough.

That does seem to be a theme. So far they have had 45 votes but only passed 3 meaningless amendments.

I didn't say anything of the sort.

In an editorial comment I returned to a publisher one time, I offered, "This book would benefit from fewer of the author's own thoughts."

Same applies to you and the Retort.

Do these idiots understand how difficult denaturalization is? How expensive it is? The insanely high burden of proof? How limited it is?

COVID loan fraud isn't enough. It generally has to be either fraud to become naturalization (Elon, Melania) or at minimum willful concealment or misrepresentation of a material fact for naturalization (insanely high bar) or basically treason, espionage or war crimes.

That's pretty much it.

Good luck, idiots.

You assume they'll require the same level of stringency in these proceedings as opposed to simply declaring them denaturalized cuz Trump says so.

You want to reveal your medical histories here, much less your real names?

I have many times. RCADE knows who I am. I've met more Retort members in person and real life than anyone here. Plus, I run a Discord server with 70 people there, 38 of them from the Retort, who all share family photo's, stories and general awesome conversation, unlike the personal insults seen here. Many of them have quit posting at the DR, because of how much it's changed, but we remain friends in the real world and keep contact on Discord.

People like me an Laura come from a different time at the Retort, when it was genuinely fun. People were nicer and we could debate and have discourse and still be friends.

Me and Laura talk shit, but dont mistake it for real life. I probably know more about Laura than any of you. I truly care for that individual and she knows it, or should know it.

Cant do that anymore, with some of the liberal/progressives handles on here who resort to name calling behind the keyboard.

Admit you've never had to go through that process for a loved one, without using those specific words.

Basically, you're dead wrong.

Trump is a rapist and a criminal, Republicans don't care.

Some old guy has been living in America the past 60 years but never got his citizenship, Republicans scream bloody murder and kill the guy in an ICE Concentration Camp.
