Desperate Left trying to find a way to revoke Elon Musk's US citizenship

Billionaire X owner Elon Musk has triggered the powers that be, so much so that they are now going after his American citizenship.

Legal experts claim that if Musk were to have lied on his immigration forms, he could have his citizenship stripped and be denaturalized. The Washington Post, which has had a leftist lean as of late, alleged he illegally worked in the United States in the 1990s. Their claims are allegedly backed up by “former business associates, court records and company documents,” and claim that when he was accepted to Stanford in 1995, Musk began working on a startup that would later be known as Zip2 instead of enrolling in classes.

The outlet further reported claims that one year later in 1996, investors addressed concerns about Musk and his brother Kimbal’s immigration status by hinging their funding agreement on the brothers obtaining legal licenses to work in the United States.

“Their immigration status was not what it should be for them to be legally employed running a company in the US,” Zip2 board member Derek Proudian said in a statement to WaPo.

However, Musk denies having ever worked in the United States illegally, claiming that in the 90s he started with a J-1 visa, which is used for “exchange visitors” and later transitioned to an H1-B visa for migrant workers. According to the Post’s reporting, an email from 2005 that would eventually be entered into the court record in a defamation case, Musk allegedly claimed that he had applied at Stanford because he would have “no legal right to stay in the country” otherwise. It is also claimed that he never actually enrolled at the university following his acceptance.

Experts admit that overstaying visas is pretty common for migrants in America, something Republicans have been ringing alarm bells about for years. The problem is that if Musk ever lied about any of this on his immigration forms, it would carry fairly significant penalties. Once again, though, experts claim these laws are rarely enforced, likely meaning that sudden enforcement in the case of Musk would be motivated by something other than an alleged breaking of the law.

“On purely legal grounds, this would justify revoking citizenship, because if he had told the truth, he would not have been eligible for an H1-B, a green card, or naturalization,” said Stephen Yale-Loehr, a Cornell Law School professor and faculty director of the school’s Immigration Law and Policy Program.

Find any way to deport Elon, but how dare we deport illegal immigrants, right?

So the government allows at least 10 million illegal aliens to fly into the country and the Democrats are horrified that they might be deported, but they want to deport the smartest and most innovative and richest man in the world

They can revoke his citizenship, but not his residency.

He owns too much property. If you own over 1million in property you can easily get residency. Plus he’s literally a defense contractor, he ain’t going anywhere.

He could, but think of all those jobs that’ll go overseas. Once he moves all his manufacturing plants outside the country.
