President Donald Trump’s administration said on Tuesday it was auditing immigration cases involving U.S. citizens of ​Somali origin to detect fraud that could lead to denaturalization, or ‌revocation of citizenship.

“Under U.S. law, if an individual procures citizenship on a fraudulent basis, that is ‌grounds for denaturalization,” Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that was first reported by Fox News and reposted by the White House on social media. {snip}
