It Was The Trump Administration Who Allowed The DC Shooter To Stay Here

"He applies for asylum in December of 2024," "Now, he goes through another vetting process involving that, and he's approved for asylum in April of this year, under the Trump administration."

The new revelations sparked outrage on social media. Writer Wajahat Ali tweeted: "Why did Trump invite a man who shot the National Guard?"

"Am I doing this right, MAGA? I am, right? I'm following your logic," he wrote. "So, yeah, Donald Trump should be blamed entirely."

So, I don't wanna hear it.

Maybe if they weren't busy deporting grandmas and children and farm workers, they would have had time to """vet""" this guy.

The guard should only be subject to danger when the nation needs them. Right now most to all deployed national guard people are not needed and should be with their families for Thanksgiving.

Two soldiers would be whole today if they had not been deployed for show. I'm sorry, that's my heartbroken reaction.

It is the type of thing that despots would set up in hope of a disaster. That way, they could stage a strong appearance. You keep armed people on the streets and, eventually, something is bound to happen.

But they granted this guy asylum. They go into schools of little kids looking to deport people.

They tried to deport Native Americans.
