Niece, grand-niece of slain Iranian Gen. Soleimani arrested by immigration agents

Summary: The U.S. government has arrested the niece and grand-niece of a former Iranian general, Qassem Soleimani. Secretary of State Marco Rubio took away their green cards. Officials say the women enjoyed a very fancy lifestyle in Los Angeles for years, even though they supported the Iranian government and cheered for attacks against America. Now, they are in the custody of immigration agents and face deportation. Other Iranian officials and their family members have also had their U.S. visas canceled recently.
