On Sunday, US President Donald Trump slammed his predecessor, Joe Biden, and the latter’s deputy, Kamala Harris, for “screwing the country” by allowing immigrants to enter “unchecked and unvetted.” This occurred after two West Virginia National Guard troops were slain in a shooting near the White House, purportedly by an Afghan man.

DHS condemns Biden’s administration
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) also chastised Biden’s administration, claiming that the former President committed “acts of national self-sabotage” by admitting immigrants.
“The monster who carried out the atrocity in DC should never have been in the nation. The Biden administration let him in, as well as countless others, in an act of national self-sabotage. Processing of all immigration requests for Afghan nationals has been halted indefinitely awaiting additional evaluation of security and vetting processes,” Homeland Security stated.
According to Kristi Noem, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Joe Biden was accountable for the killing of National Guard member Sarah since the accused’s application to enter the United States was processed under his administration.
“our individual’s application to enter our country began under the Joe Biden administration. “The consequences of the shooting and Sarah’s death are directly on Joe Biden and his administration,” said she.

He arrived in the United States in 2021 through Operation Allies Welcome, following America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan. He later moved to Bellingham, Washington, with his wife and five small sons.
Emails to the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) revealed that he was trying to acclimate to life in America.
