The US State Department has already cancelled the visas of at least six foreigners who posted on social media about the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. This was announced on October 15 by the US State Department on the social network X (former. Twitter).

"The United States is not obligated to host foreigners who wish Americans dead," the publication says.

The State Department said it continues to identify individuals who reacted positively to the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and showed statements for which it deprived foreigners of visas. Among them: Kirk's accusation of xenophobia, misogyny and racism, and multiple inappropriate insults.

So, a Brazilian citizen, whose American visa is no longer valid, wrote on social media that Kirk died too late.

"When fascists die, Democrats don't complain," a German citizen whose visa to the United States was canceled also wrote.

Kirk died on September 10 after an assassination attempt during a speech at the University of Utah. He played a key role in the victory of US President Donald Trump in the 2024 elections. The suspect, Tyler Robinson, was charged with murder and appeared in court for the first time via video link on September 17. The farewell ceremony for the politician took place on September 21 at the State Farm in Arizona.

On October 15, US President Donald Trump posthumously awarded Kirk the Presidential Medal. The widow of activist Erica Kirk received it from the hands of the American leader.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
