The Trump administration has revoked the visas of six foreign nationals in the United States due to their comments regarding Charlie Kirk. The individuals hailed from Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay. The Department of State provided examples of the remarks made, which included posts on social media platforms X and Facebook. The individuals were not named publicly.

One example cited by the Department of State involved an Argentinian national who suggested that Kirk deserved to be in hell. This individual expressed indifference toward the death of someone they described as spreading "racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric." The Department of State noted, "Visa revoked."

Kirk was a political activist and supporter of former President Donald Trump. He was known for hosting debates on various topics, including religion and gender identity. His views often polarized audiences; he opposed same-sex marriage and abortion but resonated with many for his Christian values and support of gun rights. Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 while hosting a debate at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Tyler James Robinson, a 22-year-old suspect, has been arrested and faces murder charges.

The Department of State stated, "The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who wish death on Americans." They emphasized their commitment to identifying visa holders who celebrated Kirk's assassination. Another example included a South African individual who remarked that Kirk "won’t be remembered as a hero" and criticized him as being part of a movement of "white nationalist trailer trash."

In a post written in German, another individual stated, "when fascists die, democrats don’t complain." Other comments labeled Kirk a racist or suggested he "died too soon."

The Department of State reiterated its stance on immigration enforcement, stating, "Aliens who take advantage of America’s hospitality while celebrating the assassination of our citizens will be removed." In mid-September, Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed that visa revocations were in progress, asserting, "America will not host foreigners who celebrate the death of our fellow citizens."

This announcement follows a brief suspension of the late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! after host Jimmy Kimmel made remarks about Kirk. Kimmel joked about how Trump was coping with Kirk's death and accused the "MAGA gang" of attempting to portray Kirk's alleged killer as anything other than one of their own while trying to gain political advantage from the situation.
