U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is under fire by his own MAGA allies over an immigration issue.
On Saturday, the Department of State announced that, "All visitor visas for individuals from Gaza are being stopped while we conduct a full and thorough review of the process and procedures used to issue a small number of temporary medical-humanitarian visas in recent days."
That led author Lee Smith to proclaim, "Gazan families, which held Americans and Israelis hostage after October 7, are being ushered into US under color of humanitarian assistance. Deport now. Fire and/or charge the Americans responsible."
General Mike Flynn responded to Smith by appealing directly to Donald Trump:
"Do us all a big favor and place a person in charge at every department, activity, agency, commission and board and start firing people," Flynn wrote Saturday. "The secretaries[sic] schedules are packed with other priorities (as you know). If you don’t do this, you will NEVER eliminate the 'DEEP STATE', trust me."
He added, "It has to be done systematically and with purpose and great urgency," before alleging Trump advisor Sergio Gor "needs help."
"These type mistakes cannot be made and cannot be tolerated," he wrote on X.
Controversial Trump ally Laura Loomer had a lot to say about the subject, even claiming to be the one who originally exposed the Gazan visas.
"We still don’t have the names of the State Department employees who approved the visas. [Rubio] Every member of Congress needs to press for the release of those employees names and they need to be fired," Loomer wrote. "Every Gazan who was welcomed into the US needs to be deported. THERE ARE DOCTORS IN OTHER COUNTRIES! This is INEXCUSABLE!"
In a separate post, Loomer said, "I am calling on every single Member of Congress to inquire with the US State Department which State Department employees endangered the safety of US citizens by signing off on visas for GAZANS."
"We need to know who is responsible. There needs to be consequences," she added.
Fox News personality Laura Ingraham said of the news, "Until we deport the millions of visa overstayers already here, we should be very careful about visitor visas."
