US to Screen Immigration Applicants for 'Anti-Americanism' and Extremism

TL;DR Summary
The Trump administration has issued new guidelines for USCIS to scrutinize applicants for US immigration benefits, focusing on identifying 'anti-American' views and activities, including social media content and ties to extremist groups, which could lead to application denials. This move expands the criteria for vetting and aims to prevent individuals with anti-American sentiments from obtaining legal immigration status.
