Trump Announces New Immigration Restrictions After D.C. Shooting

[Uncle Joe]

We look at President Trump's call to pause all asylum decisions after an Afghan man who once worked for the CIA opened fire near the White House last Wednesday, shooting two National Guard members, killing one. Rahmanullah Lakanwal entered the United States in 2021 through Operation Allies Welcome, a program that saw the U.S. evacuate thousands of Afghans who faced reprisals from the Taliban over their work with the U.S. and the former U.S.-backed government.

Trump has since said that he will "permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries." Afghan refugees have "been stuck in limbo in the United States, and now they're being targeted by President Trump's political stunts," says Shawn VanDiver, founder and president of #AfghanEvac. Laila Ayub, executive director of Project ANAR, says the Trump administration is using the tragedy to "scapegoat and collectively punish an entire community."

Deport all young white men for all their endless slaughtering of kids, men and women, concert goers, seniors, political opponents and church attendees?
Even attempting to kill the leader, (allegedly),
Overwhelmingly young white males.
