On Thursday, Just the News<\/a> reported that President Trump announced that Sarah Beckstrom, 20, of West Virginia, a National Guardsman who was shot Wednesday in Washington, D.C., has died. She and Guardsman Andrew Wolfe were ambushed by an Afghani national.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The suspected shooter has been identified as Rahmanullah Lakanwal,<\/a> an Afghan national.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Breitbart<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n

In November 2021, just as former President Joe Biden\u2019s administration was importing thousands of Afghan nationals to the United States every week, then-Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitted that \u201cnot all\u201d Afghans were being vetted with \u201cin-person, refugee interviews,\u201d an admission that shocked members of Congress.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Wednesday,\u00a029-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal of Afghanistan left two National Guardsmen in critical condition after he allegedly opened fire on them while shouting \u201cAllahu Akbar,\u201d law enforcement officials say.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lakanwal arrived in the U.S. in 2021 as part of Biden\u2019s Operation Allies Welcome, carried out by Mayorkas at the time, which ultimately resettled tens of thousands of Afghans in American communities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In November 2021, during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Mayorkas admitted to members of Congress that not every Afghan national brought to the U.S. following the withdrawal of American troops in Afghanistan had been vetted in-person.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not conducting in-person, refugee interviews of 100 percent individuals,\u201d Mayorkas said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article at Breitbart concludes:<\/p>\n

In September 2021, before a Senate hearing, then-Secretary of State Antony Blinken also admitted that vetting was unlikely to have occurred for thousands of Afghan nationals before they boarded planes to the U.S.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat percentage of [Afghans] were vetted before they actually got on those planes?\u201d Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) asked Blinken.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBefore they got on their airplanes to leave Kabul? Certainly not, most of them were not,\u201d Blinken admitted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We need to examine very carefully the people from Muslim countries that are coming into America. I am sure many of them are peaceful people only looking for a quiet place to raise their families, but we need to find a way to sort the peaceful people who want to assimilate into America from the Islamists. The fact that the murderer yelled, “Allahu Akbar” while firing on his victims might be a clue that he has not assimilated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
