In the four years since this executive order came out 414 people/entities have been sanctioned. All of them were foreigners.
The Treasury Department lets you search for people it has sanctioned....and there are lots of different reasons people are sanctioned.....this is crucial for anti-money laundering laws which are often called Know Your Customer. If someone from the Congo wants to put $10 million in your bank or someone from Columbia wants to buy your office tower, you need a way to find out if the US government thinks they are shady.
So the Treasury Department has a list to search for Sanctioned people and you can search by the Program they are sanctioned under. The program code that relates to this Executive Order is GLOMAG for Global Magnitsky Act.

You can check this yourself. I just ran that search and 414 people/entities are returned. But if you set the country filter to United States. You can just one result. Harry Varney Gboto-Nambi Sherman who is a politician from Liberia.
If you click on his details, you see he lives in Monrovia, Liberia, but there is PO Box in Maryland connected to him somehow
Harry Varney Gboto-Nambi Sherman (Sherman), now a prominent lawyer, Liberian senator, and Chair of the Liberian Senate Judiciary Committee, offered bribes to multiple judges associated with his trial for a 2010 bribery scheme, and he had an undisclosed conflict of interest with the judge who ultimately returned a not guilty verdict in July 2019. Sherman has routinely paid judges to decide cases in his favor, and he has allegedly facilitated payments to Liberian politicians to support impeachment of a judge who has ruled against him.
........Sherman is designated for being a foreign person who is a current or former government official responsible for or complicit in, or directly or indirectly engaged in, corruption, including the misappropriation of state assets, the expropriation of private assets for personal gain, corruption related to government contracts or the extraction of natural resources, or bribery.
So this PO Box connected to this guy is the only time this executive order has every been used on American soil as far as I can tell.
If they are in the US and have committed crimes, this executive order wouldn't apply. It would go through the regular legal system. If the goverment thinks they comitted crimes they would have to get a grand jury to indict them and they would get their day in court and presumption of innocence and all the other rights and freedoms we Americans enjoy.
If they go someplace they can't be extradicted from, it might apply.

Can all the Congressional scumbags who hold dual citizenship with Israel be considered foreigners?
No.

Many other countries offer dual citizenship.
ThanQ for the new tool.
