The State Department will pause immigrant visa processing from 75 countries whose migrants take welfare from the American people at unacceptable rates. The freeze will remain active until the U.S. can ensure that new immigrants will not extract wealth from the American people.
The pause impacts dozens of countries – including Somalia, Haiti, Iran, and Eritrea – whose immigrants often become public charges on the United States upon arrival.

We are working to ensure the generosity of the American people will no longer be abused.
The Trump Administration will always put America First.

Mass migration poses an existential threat to Western civilization and undermines the stability of key American allies.

Today the State Department instructed U.S. embassies to report on the human rights implications and public safety impacts of mass migration.
Mass migration is a human rights concern. Western nations have endured crime waves, terror attacks, sexual assaults, and the displacement of communities.

U.S. officials will urge governments to take bold action and defend citizens against the threats posed by mass migration.
Officials will also report policies that punish citizens who object to continued mass migration and document crimes and human rights abuses committed by people of a migration background.

These issues have plagued citizens of Western nations for years:

Thanks to @POTUS, the United States’ effective disaster response after Hurricane Melissa created a new standard for the deployment of U.S. foreign assistance.

Our quick deployment demonstrates how American leadership is stronger in our region under the Trump Administration. 🧵 U.S. Army soldiers distribute food in Savanna-la-Mar, Westmoreland Parrish, Jamaica, Nov. 4, 2025, with graphic text “New U.S. Aid Paradigm is Beginning to Take Shape”

The State Department will designate these four Antifa groups as Foreign Terror Organizations:
Antifa Ost is a terrorist organization based in Germany that is infamous for wielding hammers in premeditated attacks against unsuspecting victims.

This Antifa group was named a terrorist organization by Hungary after it attacked nine victims in Budapest. Image

The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans.

The State Department continues to identify visa holders who celebrated the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk. Here are just a few examples of aliens who are no longer welcome in the U.S.:
An Argentine national said that Kirk “devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric” and deserves to burn in hell.

Visa revoked. Image
A South African national mocked Americans grieving the loss of Kirk, saying “they’re hurt that the racist rally ended in attempted martyrdom” and alleging “he was used to astroturf a movement of white nationalist trailer trash.”

Visa revoked. Image
