The Trump administration on Thursday blamed Biden-era vetting failures for the admission of an Afghan immigrant suspected of shooting two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., but the alleged gunman was granted asylum this year under Donald Trump, according to a U.S. government file seen by Reuters.
Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national, entered the U.S. on September 8, 2021, under Operation Allies Welcome. The resettlement program was set up by Joe Biden after the U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021 that led to the rapid collapse of the Afghan government and the country’s takeover by the Taliban.
I mean…this is just another in the line of examples (that will get much longer) of Trump just saying what he wished happened, instead of what actually happened. Kirk shooter, ICE shooter etc
“The shooter was an immigrant from a poor country to we must ban all immigration from poor counties”. He doesn’t expect it to become relevant that the shooter was a lunatic hired by the CIA and imported by his own administration.
