The answer which is not true about the Alien and Sedition Act was b) the President could give asylum to any immigrant he wished. The Alien and Sedition Acts were used for any president to deport people he deemed were dangerous for the United States, and although this law was made during John Adams time, it was widely used during World War II. The acts also banned people criticizing the federal government.
<u> b. The President could give asylum to any immigrant he wished.</u>
The Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798, in anticipation of an expected war with France, aimed to restrict the activities of foreign residents in the country, to give the government power to deport foreigners deemed dangerous (Option A), to limit freedom of speech and of the press and allowed the President to imprison whoever openly opposed to their measures (Option C), among others.
The Act focused on restricting measures toward foreigners and American citizens and didn't focus on facilitating the entrance of immigrants in the nation, therefore <u>option b is NOT true.</u>
A, Lenin's followers were commonly known as the Bolshevik, which translates to "those who are more" referring to their communist beliefs and the power of the group.
