That is my question as well—-is Rupert an American citizen? If not, how is he allowed such power and influence over our elections and discourse?

Isn't it illegal for foreign actors to interfere in our elections and peddle disinformation? (Not that there is any accountability, thanks to GOP). How are we going to stop this avalanche of anti-democratic avarice? (someone was asking for more alliteration). Trump is now coming for the judges, as I knew he would, and the election mechanisms are next. With Murdock, Musk + Putin and his bots firmly entrenched, this will be even easier than before.

The same way the muskrat is. He doesn’t have accountability.

Murdoch is Australian, not sure if he has dual citizenship like Musk.

ABNER522 - Since "Leon" arrived on a student visa and worked illegally (according to his brother), doesn't that make his naturalization moot? Much like a certain model who arrived on a tourist visa and began working illegally at a modeling agency (according to the company ledgers), but ended up marrying a billionaire and getting a genius visa, then becoming naturalized and "chain-migrating" both her parents and sister (don't tell trump - he hates that!)?

Anyhow, doesn't the illegal activity and then lying about it, form a basis for deportation?

He does have duel citizenship because he bribed and bought the USA one back in the 80’s.

Murdoch brought his citizenship in the mid 80s so he could buy TV Stations to form the Fox Television Networks.
