Good News for Leftists as State Department Slashes Cost of RENOUNCING Citizenship by 80 Percent

Americans who want to formally give up their U.S. citizenship will now face a far lower fee after the State Department implemented a rule cutting the cost by roughly 80 percent.
Under the new rules, the fee to process a Certificate of Loss of Nationality (CLN) has been reduced from $2,350 to $450.
The change restores the fee to the same level the government charged when it first began requiring payment for citizenship renunciations in 2010.
The reduction was first announced in 2023 but only recently took effect under Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
According to the State Department, the fee had been increased to $2,350 in 2015 to cover administrative expenses as the number of Americans seeking to renounce their citizenship rose sharply.
BOOM! TRUMP’S STATE DEPT JUST SLASHED THE RENOUNCE-US-CITIZENSHIP FEE BY 80% — FROM $2,350 DOWN TO A PATHETIC $450!
Marco Rubio making it DEAD EASY for every America-hating globalist, Deep State plant & foreign invader to pack up and GET OUT NOW!
Officials linked that surge in part to new tax reporting rules affecting Americans living overseas.
Data from the department showed renunciation requests climbing from 956 cases in 2010 to 3,436 in 2014.
Despite the reduction, the government says the new $450 fee still does not fully cover the actual cost of processing renunciation applications.
The process of formally renouncing U.S. citizenship involves several steps.
Applicants must appear in person before a U.S. consular officer at an embassy or consulate abroad, where they must confirm both verbally and in writing that they understand the consequences of renouncing citizenship.
Individuals must then take a formal oath of renunciation, after which the State Department reviews the request before issuing the Certificate of Loss of Nationality.
There are various reasons why one might give up their citizenship. The most commonly cited is the financial reporting requirements for Americans living abroad.
However, others may renounce it simply to make a political statement that they no longer want to be American.
The move was celebrated by advocacy groups representing so-called “Accidental Americans,” people who hold U.S. citizenship through birth but do not live in America.
“The Association of Accidental Americans welcomes this decision, which acknowledges the necessity of making this fundamental right accessible to all,” the group’s president, Fabien Lehagre, said in a statement.
According to the group, 8,755 Americans paid the previous $2,350 fee after the State Department first announced plans to lower the cost in 2023 but before the rule formally took effect.
Election Integrity Is Needed More Than Ever: Why Passing The Save America Act Is A ‘Must!’
March 16, 2026

Election integrity is an issue of outsized importance to securing the future prospects of the country.
Right alongside national security, election integrity ought to be perceived as an extension of national security, for who controls our election procedures controls our government.
In a highly globalized world, where the speed of travel and communications is faster than ever, the world is much smaller than ever before.
While this intimacy furnishes opportunities for economic growth, it also makes America more susceptible to foreign threats like never before.
Of particular concern is sovereignty. In recent decades, our government has had a disastrous run at controlling our borders and making sure that dangerous criminals and violent drug traffickers are kept out.
Even our system for vetting legal immigration has been under siege, an ersatz and slipshod process, reified in the H-1B program, which is putatively designed to select new entrants on the basis of merit and skillset, has broken down, as major companies exploit lax legal loopholes and buy political influence to cook the books in their favor.
The ripple effects of these policies – an open border coupled with a schizophrenic vetting system for new migrants, have been massive – cascading beyond the mere economic, extending to overloading mass transit systems, public education and healthcare, and transforming the core of American identity along the way.
In a country that once universally understood the basic requirements for participation in the social covenant included proficiency in the English language and adherence to the rule of law, that has been lost especially in recent years by the influx of new arrivals.
Of all the problems our unchecked immigration system has unleashed, the greatest perhaps is the effect these newcomers have had on election systems.
The election infrastructure currently in place, which has traditionally operated in a decentralized manner, where states largely dictate procedures, lacks the bandwidth to manage this amount of people.
Non-citizens were never supposed to be included on voter rolls, nor of course participate in elections – that was a privilege expressly reserved to American citizens only.
Indeed, one of the hallmarks, and leading incentives, to becoming naturalized historically was the opening of the franchise.
That privilege, alas, has been tarnished by an ever-loudening cadre of leftist voices who no longer believe citizenship should be a requirement to vote.
This, of course, raises a fundamental question: if citizenship should no longer be a prerequisite for voting, then should anyone be denied access to America’s elections?
The logic used by Democrats compels answering in the negative: the only limiting factor it seems that they might accept is the number of trees needed to be chopped down to turn into paper to be made into absentee ballots to send out to every person on Earth, who has a constitutional right to vote in our elections.
That may seem absurd on its face, but no Democratic politician has been able to articulate a limiting principle for regulating voters.
And this is not merely a theoretical exercise: in blue states, or even red or purple states controlled by a Democratic governor, like Pennsylvania for instance, they have been intentionally withholding voter roll information from the public.
It has been notoriously difficult to conduct an exhaustive evaluation of Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona’s voter rolls because this data has been kept under lock and key by Democratic politicians who have every incentive in the world to keep subversive practices in place, for reliance on those practices is their only meaningful pathway to victory.
President Trump’s Justice Department is in the process of investigating voter rolls in over a dozen states.
So far, they have already unearthed tens, if not hundreds of thousands of ineligible participants on those rolls.
That list includes multiple residences, deceased people, and, of course, non-citizens.
In certain states, there is a strong deterrent to disclosure, because states and election officials increasingly receive threats by far left organizations, such as Mark Elias’ legal group, which is backed by dark money, that cooperative states will be sued for doing so.
This was the recent finding of Harmeet Dhillon, who runs the Civil Rights Division at the Department of Justice.
Dhillon was recently asked in an interview about ongoing investigations into voter rolls and procedures nationwide.
The challenge is one of information and data collection: it involves an arduous legal process to obtain subpoenas to get access to data, which becomes even more difficult when dealing with recalcitrant parties, such as unwilling judges, prosecutors, and state attorneys general, who have enabled the fraud to persist.
While these DOJ-led investigations are absolutely necessary and should continue, the real solution will likely require federal intervention, in the form of legislation, to enact the kind of change that will be meaningful and long-lasting.
President Trump’s proposed Save America Act, which has a backing of the majority of Congress reflects a bipartisan consensus among the American people: there is a widespread sentiment that our elections are rigged and legislation is needed to shore up those systems.
The Act is designed to accomplish that by nationalizing Voter ID requirements, as well as making proof of citizenship a necessary prerequisite to vote.
Beyond that, all the procedures enacted under COVID to meddle with election procedures, especially the abuse of absentee ballots, have been dramatically reduced under the proposed law.
This will help rollback many of the egregious reforms made over the 2020s, which observed longstanding election rules be radically overhauled in the name of safety, which paved the way for Biden’s “victory” in 2020.
The Biden regime underscores just how important credible elections are to legitimate government. The Biden debacle could have been avoided altogether if we had implemented common sense election integrity measures decades ago.
These reforms were not enacted intentionally, because it allowed the powers that be to install their choice of candidate and spoil the democratic accountability mechanism in our constitutional design.
Free and fair elections are essential to keeping our government accountable; for without it Washington, DC will march to the beat of its own drum, unmoored by the will of the People, on which our representative democracy is based.
Hence, the urgency for election integrity and ergo the opportunity presented with the Save America Act, maybe our last chance to reform and fortify our election system to ensure integrity in the process, and that the United States may continue to advance an agenda that truly improves the lives of normal Americans, as the Constitution obliges and as our Founding Fathers intended.
The Best Quote on Islam That You’ve Never Heard – Winston Churchill Predicted Europe’s Fall to Islam All the Way Back in 1899
March 16, 2026
Former British Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill recognized Islam’s threat to Europe in 1899.
If only he could see the continent today.
That year, Churchill published “The River War: An Historical Account of the Reconquest of the Soudan,” telling the account of Field Marshal Lord Horatio Kitchener’s conquest of that country.
For context, this was a younger Churchill, not even 30 years old, and yet to rise to the political heights history would remember him for.
Despite that fact, his observations regarding Islam are as timeless and politically astute as any by the British statesman. The quote was posted to social media platform X by Lebanese Canadian commenter Gad Saad, who took to mocking the left and current British Prime Minister Keir Starmer by using one of their favorite insults against Churchill.
“Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world,” the quote said.
“Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome,” it continued.
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
“The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property — either as a child, a wife, or a concubine — must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.”
The intellectual class champions a secular world without values endowed by the Creator.
Thought leaders increasingly defend multiculturalism over a Christian code of ethics.
The only moral grounding allowed to be espoused unapologetically in Europe is one of acceptance — and this is hardly a meaningful grounding for a just society.
Europe now should remember Christ’s words in Matthew 7:25-27.
“And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”
We are seeing this house on sand collapse without faith in Him.
Megyn Kelly Responds After Getting SLAMMED by President Trump For Her Disgusting Comment on Mark Levin and It Quickly Backfires
March 16, 2026
Screencap from YouTube video.
Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly is not letting getting nuked by President Trump stop her from dialing up her feud with legendary radio host Mark Levin, though this does not appear to be a popular decision.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, Levin has had a months-long public feud with other conservative podcasters, including Megyn Kelly, Jack Posobiec, Steve Bannon, and Tucker Carlson.
The barb trading with Kelly came to a head on Sunday, when Kelly called Levin “Microp*nis Mark” and suggested that she easily triggers him because of “his microp*nis.”
“Microp*nis Mark @marklevinshow thinks he has the monopoly on lewd. He tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible. Literally more than some stalkers I’ve had arrested. He doesn’t like it when women like me fight back. Bc of his microp*nis,” Kelly wrote on X.
Trump responded by taking Levin’s side with a fiery post on Truth Social, blasting Kelly and others for attacking him. He warned that she and others would fall by the wayside for attacking him, while also implying that she and her friends, Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, were not MAGA.
“Those that speak ill of Mark will quickly fall by the wayside, as do the people whose ideas, policies, and footings are not sound,” Trump wrote.
“THEY ARE NOT MAGA, I AM, and MAGA includes not allowing Iran, a Sick, Demented, and Violent Terrorist Regime, to have a Nuclear Weapon to blow up the United States of America, the Middle East, and, ultimately, the rest of the World,” he added. “MAGA is about stopping them cold, and that is exactly what we are doing. GOD BLESS OUR GREAT MILITARY, WHICH I HAVE REBUILT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF MY FIRST TERM, TO ACHIEVE EVERLASTING PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
After learning of Trump’s post, Kelly not only doubled down on her vile comment but also taunted Levin for “crying to Daddy.”
She also claimed Levin had made several misogynistic attacks against her.
“Micro p*nis @marklevinshow is such a SMALL MAN he had to go beg the president for a pat on the head (in the middle of a war!) to make himself feel better about … well, you know,” she wrote.
“This, after one mean tweet about him – following his 111 (!) nasty, non-stop, personal, misogynistic attacks on me. (Fox has an OBSESSED HARASSER on its hands.).”
“Just like all feckless, weakling bullies, Micro can dish it out, but he can’t take it. After just one post putting the so-called “great one” in his place, he ran crying to Daddy.”
Micro penis @marklevinshow is such a SMALL MAN he had to go beg the president for a pat on the head (in the middle of a war!) to make himself feel better about … well, you know.
This, after one mean tweet about him – following his 111 (!) nasty, non-stop, personal,…
The tweet quickly backfired with users ripping Kelly for her classless tirade. Users also note that she previously praised Levin, saying she had a “huge crush” on him.
I thought the play with someone harassing a woman was to ignore them. Are you acting as Mark’s publicist?
My God woman, what happened to you?! You are completely unrecognizable! Not that I would want to recognize what you’ve become! I’m Just a nobody that observes quietly from the outside, so if you got my attention, you’ve gone too far! This infighting is sickening and destructive!
