Trump Targets 55 Million Visa Holders in Sweeping Deportation Review... 

The size and scale ALONE of this task are considerable; the administration might have actionable intelligence...

Does this include student AND work visas? Yes, it does..

for a better perspective...

The 55 million figure refers to the total number of foreigners worldwide who currently hold valid U.S. visas, not the number of people living in the United States on visas. In 2024, 77% of visas issued were for tourist and business purposes. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/08/21/us-visa-vetting-foreigners-immigration-tourism/

If this is indeed necessary, then perhaps the country needs to be very stringent on who we allow to come to America and attend our universities.

Without specific targets, it feels like overreaching... but considering Gaza is still getting pummeled and the campus protests haven't reappeared in full force, perhaps deportations are making a significant dent already.

The Trump administration has launched a massive review of 55 million U.S. visa holders, scrutinizing records for violations like criminal activity or overstays that could lead to deportations. This initiative, driven by national security and economic concerns, escalates immigration enforcement and has sparked widespread online debate, with supporters praising it as a border control victory and critics warning of potential injustices.

Effective immediately we are pausing all issuance of worker visas for commercial truck drivers. The increasing number of foreign drivers operating large tractor-trailer trucks on U.S. roads is endangering American lives and undercutting the livelihoods of American truckers.

I’m no mathematician, but removing 55 million visa holders would probably free up the housing market and lower rents for, you know, Americans.

No one is above the law.

If they have abused or overstayed their visas, then buh-bye.

Good.  Anyone overstaying their VISA, or who got one under false pretense or lies on the application, or who engage in anti-America or hateful (anti-semite or anti-black or whatever) campaigning, have no business being allowed into this country.

Oh ... and that includes 'Prince' Harry.  Whatever paperwork he has that allows him to be in this country was gotten with lies.   He said 'no drug behavior' on the application and yet he admits in his crap book that he did engage in illegal drug behavior.  Send him back to England where he belongs.  He can take his wife and kids with him.

I sure hope they put the same amount of energy into welfare abuse

Yeah, for clarification...

Nowhere did I say, suggest, or imply that I was OK with persons overstaying or violating thier VISA.

What I did suggest IS

This is a daunting task...they have barely deported those in the country illegally sans VISAs... 

If the additional investigations for  VISA violations enhance the deportations, AND IT MAY Im good BUT if it retards those removals, I'm skeptical AH.
