There’s a lot of shenanigans they could do within the law (not even mentioning the stuff they could do outside of the law):
If they “find” evidence of any crime committed before his oath ceremony, yes, it’s possible. Within 5 years of naturalization, if they “find” evidence of “terrorist” or “communist” associations, yes.
Also, denaturalization is not done in a criminal court, it’s a civil trial, below the “beyond reasonable doubt” standard of proof that a criminal trial would require. I’m not sure if a jury is even required.
Just an example: If they find a video of him smoking weed an hour before his oath ceremony, technically that could be used against him, marijuana is still illegal under the controlled substance act. Not sure how that would practically play out in court tho.
I’m actually kinda worried for myself. I have no idea exactly how clean/by-the-books my parent’s tax records are or if their taxes are even done correctly, if they did anything shady, and if it happened before my mom got citizenship, she could lose citizenship and I would lose it too. So… yea… no wonder why I can’t sleep these days.
There’s a hidden division in your question, whether intentional or not. “Can” they do that. Do you mean “are they legally allowed to do that”, or “do they have the power to do that”?
In the former, no. In the later, possibly, yes.
It really doesn’t matter with this administration. They have shown time and time again that the old adage of “better to ask for forgiveness than permission” unfortunately works pretty effectively. Ffs the turd is adjudicated guilty of fucking rape… FUCKING RAPE and is very likely a pedo to boot, and a third of the country voted for him!
If you’re born lucky, you live your life without consequences. There is no just god, smoke crack and worship no one.
Can they actually do that?? Someone please advise.

Or they could extend the definition of “terrorist” enough that pretty much anyone they want to target will qualify. And who would defend a terrorist?

Yea I meant can they really make that happen.

I’m yet to see them ask for forgiveness…
Legally? No. Morally? They have none, so…. Probably.
Since when has legality stopped them
Plenty of times if you’ve been paying attention.
Who’s gonna stop them? The law has no bearing on their actions so far. It hasn’t been a year yet.
True.
