https://edition.cnn.com/2025/10/14/politics/state-department-revoke-visas-charlie-kirk-murder
The US State Department said it has revoked visas from at least six individuals who allegedly “celebrated” Charlie Kirk’s murder.
In a post on X Tuesday – which would have been Kirk’s birthday – the agency cataloged “just a few examples” of people who had their visas revoked for comments about the conservative figure following his death. The State Department also said it “continues to identify visa holders who celebrated the heinous assassination of Charlie Kirk.”
The Department’s moves to revoke and deny visas to people for their comments about Kirk have raised questions about their legality under the First Amendment.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said last month that the agency had “most certainly been denying visas” to people “celebrating” Kirk’s murder.
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau said he had instructed consular officials to monitor the comments on social media claiming to identify individuals “praising, rationalizing, or making light of” Kirk’s death.
It is unclear how many people have been assigned to do the social media vetting or if the revocations cited Tuesday represent all of those who have had their visas revoked.
CNN has asked the State Department for further details about the revocations.
Among the examples cited Tuesday are a post said to be from an Argentine national who said that Kirk “‘devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric’ and deserves to burn in hell”; another said to be from a South African national who “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’”; and a Paraguayan national who allegedly said, “Charlie Kirk was a son of a b**** and he died by his own rules.”

It sounds like the ACLU will be suing the government again soon.

Three objectively correct statements, why are they getting punished for using their right to free speech to speak the truth?
Ah, right, Republicunts hate it when you contradict their propaganda...

Inalienable rights means they apply to all, cannot be separated from one group or another. America is a country heading to Hell, it and (You) won't be missed. If I were the Judge, you'd be dead already.

Charlie Kirk deserved to die and he was killed not for expressing his beliefs but for being a millionaire PAC shill with a direct line to the presidency.The fact his death is being used to justify cracking down on speech is laughable but its fitting with how rapidly this administration is spiraling right and doing every unpopular.
