Is traveling to the US for the purpose of engaging in espionage not also a valid reason to revoke a visa?

It’s often an easier case to prove that you lied on the form when you said you came to the US with no intent to commit espionage than it is to prove that someone committed espionage.

It basically unlocks a second set of potential facts that they can use to bring a criminal case (or revoke a visa, etc).

Yes. And murder is illegal. And yet, Al Capone was in Alcatraz on tax evasion charges.
