Trump administration to revoke up to 200,000 visas of asylum seekers

What they're saying: "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 AP.

• He wouldn't say how many visas might be revoked, adding, "as the process will be ongoing, the number of revocations remains dynamic and will be done on a rolling basis."
• Representatives for the State Department and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services did not immediately respond to Axios' request for comment.

The big picture: President Trump has made immigration enforcement a key priority during his second administration, aggressively cracking down on undocumented immigrants and revoking visas over issues ranging from pro-Palestinian activism to comments about Charlie Kirk's killing.

• Last year, the administration began "continuous vetting" of more than 55 million U.S. visa holders for potential violations that could lead to revocation or deportation.
