The US Department of Justice has launched its largest-ever denaturalisation campaign, filing complaints against 25 naturalised Americans in a move that one legal expert warns is being wielded as a 'political tool' against those who have 'angered the government.'
The 25 complaints filed between 20 July and 3 August 2026 target citizens from 17 countries, including Pakistan, India, Mexico, Nigeria, and Haiti, with allegations ranging from attempted murder and child sexual abuse to marriage fraud and practising medicine without a licence.
