As part of what the Trump administration is calling the “largest denaturalization effort ever,” the Department of Justice announced Monday that they are continuing to ramp up efforts to remove naturalized citizens who lied their way into this country and/or committed serious crimes.
Ten more miscreants will be sent packing, the department said in a statement on their official website:
The Department of Justice announced today that it filed denaturalization actions in various U.S. district courts against 10 individuals accused of serious offenses—including sexual abuse of a child, health care and wire fraud, immigration fraud, and conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine. The complaints were filed over the last 30 days.
Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, a naturalized U.S. citizen’s citizenship may be revoked, and certificate of naturalization canceled, if the naturalization was illegally procured or procured by concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation.

This is a HISTORIC undertaking of denaturalization. It's long overdue
10 more denaturalization actions have just been announced TODAY — "the largest denaturalization effort ever" 🇺🇸
The U.S. is saying so long to some real sweethearts:
“These ten criminal aliens — including child sex abusers, a $900,000 Medicare fraudster, and a cocaine trafficker — lied their way into U.S. citizenship,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche...
“When you commit fraud during the naturalization process, you forfeit the right to keep your U.S. citizenship,” added Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “These criminal aliens, comprised of drug traffickers, pedophiles, and fraudsters, lost that right and exploited our immigration system—harming real U.S. citizens. DHS is committed to ensuring we denaturalize and remove these fraudsters with every tool at our disposal.”
Here is a sample of the folks who will be ejected from our borders:
Two former Catholic priests — Urbano Vazquez Ortega and Martin Stanislaw Garbacz — also had actions submitted against them after being convicted of child sex crimes.
Ortega is currently serving a 15-year prison sentence for second-degree child sex abuse after he assaulted minors while working as a priest at a Washington, DC, church before, during and after becoming a naturalized citizen in 2017.
The Mexican native “sexually abused minor females from his congregation,” Sacred Heart Shrine, by groping their breasts, buttocks and even putting “his tongue in the mouth” of one of them, a July 10 filing noted.
And this guy:
Garbacz, a Polish native, was convicted on 65 counts of stealing more than $250,000 from three Catholic parishes while serving between 2012 and 2019 as a priest in Rapid City, SD, as well as engaging in illicit sexual conduct by filming a 17-year-old male in a hotel shower during a parish trip to Krakow.
The 47-year-old was sentenced to 117 months in prison in 2022. Garbacz had become a naturalized US citizen in 2014 and now faces denaturalization, per a July 6 filing.
The others, from countries like Mexico, Cuba, Pakistan, and Peru, are getting the boot for similar crimes and for lying on their applications to become citizens.
Sounds like Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin would be happy to escort them out:
Good morning America. It’s a great day for deportations. pic.twitter.com/pn8GofpOMZ

Editor’s Note: We voted for mass deportations, not mass amnesty. Help us continue to fight back against those trying to go against the will of the American people.
