"The Magic Deportation Bus": US Prepares For Largest-Ever Mass Visa Revocation In History
Shortly after AP News reported Monday evening that the Trump administration was preparing the largest mass visa revocation in US history, targeting up to 200,000 foreigners, the White House posted a meme on X spoofing the animated series The Magic School Bus and renaming Ms. Frizzle's vehicle "The Magic Deportation Bus."

The report states that the State Department is expected to announce the rolling cancellation of B1 and B2 visas issued between 2016 and 2026. The revocations will be coordinated with the Department of Homeland Security to identify affected visa holders.
"We are coordinating with DHS to identify and revoke the nonimmigrant visas of foreigners who have come to the United States claiming to be short-term visitors, but then file for asylum to stay here permanently," State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott told the outlet.
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau wrote on X, "People in the US and all over the world are fed up with bogus asylum claims. Asylum isn't supposed to be a loophole to circumvent immigration law."

Revocation would not automatically result in deportation. Foreigners with pending asylum cases would generally remain in the immigration system but lose their classification as legitimate business or tourist travelers.
Over the past 18 months, the State Department has revoked roughly 175,000 visas involving alleged criminal conduct, national security concerns and, in some cases, public opposition to US foreign policy.
In July, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested a record 51,000 illegal aliens. Deportations for the year stand at 356,389.
Something big is about to happen with deportations in America. You should be ready for this…

I just spoke with a senior DHS official. They shared deportation numbers with me that frankly stunned me.
+27,000 deportations. Last week.
+3,600 a day average.

Meanwhile, Democrats continue to die on the hill of defending criminal illegal aliens, even though the vast majority of Americans support deporting illegal aliens who commit crimes.

At the same time, the party's far-left wing, led by the Democratic Socialists of America, is openly promoting an agenda that would effectively eliminate borders and invite an even larger wave of illegal immigration.
The consequences of uncontrolled mass migration are absolutely nation-killing, as Europe is discovering the hard way. The resulting public backlash is now driving what Nomura describes as Europe "lurching right" ahead of the coming 18-month election cycle.
