Washington, President Donald Trump announced this week he will permanently pause migration from 'Third World' countries and seek to end federal benefits to noncitizens, denaturalize migrants accused of undermining domestic tranquility, and deport those deemed public charges or security risks. He posted the measures on Truth Social on Nov. 27–28 after a National Guard member was fatally shot near the White House by an Afghan national; authorities have charged a 29-year-old suspect. Officials and outlets reported Trump framed the moves as reversing Biden-era admissions and enforcing 'reverse migration.' Based on 6 articles reviewed and independent supporting research across major outlets.
