There are apparently several cases every year. Numbers have increased under Obama and then Trump I. The surprise would be if the number was zero in 2025.

@MachiNi I was surprised too didn't know it was this frequent

@strutheo cases filed, according to Claude (success rate information not publicly available):

The data shows a dramatic shift from the historical norm:

• Pre-2008: Extremely rare, averaging 1-6 cases per year

• Obama Era: Introduction of digital tools led to systematic review but restrained approach

• Trump Era: Massive escalation with 168 total cases and significant resource allocation

• Biden Era: Reduced but continued activity with 64 cases

• Trump Return: Renewed aggressive prioritization with expanded criteria

From 1990-2017, the DOJ filed 305 denaturalization cases, about 11 per year. The number has surged since President Trump’s first term Axios, representing a fundamental shift from denaturalization being used primarily against war criminals to a broader immigration enforcement tool.

@MachiNi @strutheo

@MachiNi looks like it has been ordered but still pending afaik, should resolve soon

@MachiNi wow I just went from "that would be insane I'm not sure even Trump would go that far" to "oh okay, makes sense that that would happen sometimes, i hope Trump doesn't do it when it's not called for"

What do you mean by "full citizen"? Naturalized? Or just natural-born?
