Department Of Justice Makes Move Against Top Democrat Accused Of Lying To Obtain Citizenship

MIAMI, FL — The Department of Justice just dropped a massive hammer in South Florida. Federal authorities have officially filed a rare, high-stakes civil complaint seeking to completely revoke the U.S. citizenship of former North Miami Mayor Philippe Bien-Aime.

Federal prosecutors allege that Philippe Bien-Aime is actually a man named Jean Philippe Janvier.
