You can't say that my source has a "liberal bias" because the Cato Institute came to the same conclusion. The Cato Institute leans right most of the time.
Your source states: "Immigrants commit crimes and are incarcerated at a much lower rate than U.S. citizens". So, logically, we are better of NOT making them US citizens.
And taking US citizenship away from the people who have it.
Under exactly what conditions can U.S. citizenship be revoked?

People normally get more furious when an immigrant or refugee does something bad because they would be like "instead of being grateful for accepting you into our country, you do harm to us?". While a born-citizen (of the majority ethnicity) won't get that same reaction even if he does the same crime.

It's a human nature, if you read civilization/community histories you find that the 'natives' never like the 'newcomers'.

Yes, human nature is very repetitive.
