Tonight, the nation contemplates a disturbing question: how many more Muslims jihadists did the Biden Administration bring into the country? Is it possible that sleeper cells are embedded in places like Nashville or Oklahoma City or Dallas – just waiting to be activated?
Are there other Afghan Nationals who are stalking the streets of Washington, D.C. or Memphis or Charlotte – hunting National Guardsmen.
The American people must now think about the unthinkable and we are coming to terms with the fact that Joe Biden imported tens of thousands of Afghan Nationals – and we have absolutely no idea if any of them were actually vetted. We have no way of knowing exactly how many are members of the Taliban.
But one thing we do know with great certainty – is that there are people in this country waging jihad on our fellow countrymen.
That’s what happened Wednesday afternoon on the streets of Washington, D.C. when one of those Afghan refugees ambushed two National Guardsmen and slaughtered them. Eyewitnesses say Rahmanullah Lakanwal shouted “Allah Akbar” as he executed those two West Virginia soldiers.
More questions than answers tonight – but the answers we are getting grow even more concerning.
The Inspector General’s office at the Department of Homeland Security determined that Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program suffered from major breakdowns in recordkeeping and oversight. It was so bad that immigration officials could not confirm criminal history or basic background checks.
But Lakanwal was not some sort of ordinary refugee. He reportedly worked with a paramilitary force that worked with the CIA.
CIA Director John Ratcliffe said Lakanwal should never have been allowed to come to the U.S. But he was. And in no small part thanks to both Democrats AND Republicans.
Only 16 House members voted against the plan to bring the refugees to America – most of those were members of the House Freedom Caucus.
We all raised serious concerns about allowing unvetted Islamists into the country. In response the Biden Administration and the media and Never Trump Republicans called us islamophobic.
I sat down with President Trump to discuss the future of our nation and how to sustain the America First movement. That conversation became a book called “Twilight’s Last Gleaming: Can America Be Saved?”
There is no doubt that forces are at play to destabilize the Republic. Our borders were intentionally breached. Millions were allowed to invade our nation. The question is why – and I address that in Twilight’s Last Gleaming.” President Trump also explains how to save the country. And I would urge you to read Twilight’s Last Gleaming. But for now – we must answer some questions:
Was Operation Allies Welcome a Trojan Horse? Did the Biden Administration and their allies within the Alphabet agencies knowingly allow the enemy to breach our shores? And if so, for what purpose? Is it outrageous to imagine that government agencies would use their foreign assets to foment unrest in our country? And if so to what end?
Questions that must be answered so that we might prevent more innocent blood from being shed on American soil.
