The Trump administration's focus on Iranian elites in the United States has intensified, with plans to revoke visas for approximately 3,000 to 4,000 individuals linked to the Iranian government. This initiative follows the revocation of Green Cards for Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter, both of whom have been detained by immigration authorities. Katie Miller, a podcaster and spouse of a senior White House official, expressed support for this crackdown, highlighting the perceived double standard that allows Iranian elites to live in the U.S. while being associated with a regime labeled as hostile. The State Department has characterized Afshar's activities in the U.S. as promoting Iranian propaganda and supporting a designated terrorist organization. The visa revocation actions are not limited to California, as they also affect individuals in other states, including Atlanta, where a professor faced backlash due to her family ties to the Iranian government. These developments come amid ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran.
