Following the recent terrorist attack in Washington, DC, President Donald Trump has called for a complete halt to all migrations from third-world countries.
The streets around the White House, usually a symbol of unyielding resolve, turned into a scene of raw tragedy on Wednesday when two young National Guard soldiers—Sarah Beckstrom, 20, from West Virginia, and Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24—were gunned down in cold blood. Beckstrom didn’t make it; she died from her wounds the next day, her father by her side as the news broke during a somber call with troops. Wolfe clings to life in critical condition.
The terrorist in custody, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, is an Afghan national who slipped into the country four years ago amid the chaos of the 2021 pullout, only to turn his weapon on the very protectors he once claimed to stand with.
On Truth Social, President Trump made a strong declaration (slightly edited with line breaks for clarity and emphasis added):
A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being “Politically Correct,” and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration. The official United States Foreign population stands at 53 million people (Census), most of which are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form.
They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it’s eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.).
As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone.
The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc…
…Even as we have progressed technologically, Immigration Policy has eroded those gains and living conditions for many. I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of Biden illegal admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden’s Autopen, and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country, end all Federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our Country, denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.
These goals will be pursued with the aim of achieving a major reduction in illegal and disruptive populations, including those admitted through an unauthorized and illegal Autopen approval process. Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation. Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for — You won’t be here for long!
The President’s harsh but truthful words are the wakeup call we need. Millions of Americans have been concerned about mass migration even before the Biden administration opened the borders. These concerns are the biggest reason President Trump won his first term; he was willing to name the problem that others in the GOP danced around.
Now, following the hideous terrorist attack this week, it appears we are on our way to a reset of immigration policies.
Lakanwal, a father of five, had served in a CIA-backed paramilitary unit called the “Zero Unit” back in Kandahar—night raids, Taliban hunts, the gritty underbelly of America’s longest war. Friends from his youth paint a picture of a man haunted by what he’d seen: “When he saw blood, bodies, and the wounded, he could not tolerate it. It put a lot of pressure on his mind,” one told reporters.
Another recalled how he’d vent to old pals about the toll: “He would tell me and our friends that their military operations were very tough, their job was very difficult, and they were under a lot of pressure.”
Yet here he was, paroled in under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome, his asylum fast-tracked through a 2023 settlement that tied the hands of immigration officials. Even after his temporary visa lapsed, the system churned on—granting him asylum in April 2025, under the watch of the current administration. His green card application? Still pending when he opened fire near the Farragut West metro station, shouting “Allahu akbar!” before a fellow Guardsman put him down.
The fallout hit like a thunderclap. Hours after the shots rang out, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services slammed the brakes on every Afghan-related application—indefinite suspension, no exceptions. Director Joseph Edlow made it clear: “Effective immediately, processing of all immigration requests relating to Afghan nationals is stopped indefinitely pending further review of security and vetting protocols.”
By Thursday, the scope ballooned. Trump ordered a full audit of green cards from 19 nations long flagged as hotbeds of risk: Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, Yemen, Haiti, Venezuela, and more—places where vetting feels more like a prayer than a process.
A White House insider laid the blame square on the prior regime: “This Afghan national was paroled into the US by the Biden Admin. After that, Joe Biden signed into law that parole program, and entered into the 2023 Ahmed Court Settlement, which bound USCIS to adjudicate his asylum claim on an expedited basis. Regardless of asylum status, this monster would not have been removed due to his parole status, granted by Joe Biden.”
Leftists are arguing that we cannot make decisions based on an “isolated” incident, but what happened this week was just the most heinous of a series of events. Rewind to October 2024, when Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, another Afghan national who’d worked security for the CIA, got pinched in Oklahoma City for plotting an ISIS-inspired Election Day massacre. He’d passed every check—multiple screenings, no red flags—yet there he was, buying AK-47s and ammo with a teenage accomplice, aiming to hit crowds and “martyr” themselves in the chaos.
Tawhedi even confessed post-arrest: he wanted to kill as many as possible, funding it by selling his home to bankroll ISIS. By June 2025, he pleaded guilty to terrorism charges, facing 35 years behind bars. Two of his brothers? Nabbed in France on similar plots. Vetting failures like these aren’t glitches; they’re a pattern, one that leaves you wondering if the deep-state machinery in Langley and Foggy Bottom ever learns, or if it’s wired to look the other way when the optics suit the narrative of endless “welcome.”
The CIA’s own John Ratcliffe fessed up on Fox: Lakanwal’s ties to their Kandahar team “ended shortly following the chaotic evacuation.” Chaotic? That’s diplomatic speak for a debacle that left allies dangling and enemies slipping through.
Now, Trump’s second term is allowing for a broader clampdown—slashing refugee caps to a historic low of 7,500 for fiscal 2026, reviving public charge rules to ding benefit users, and probing every Biden-era entry. It feels less like overreach and more like overdue reckoning. Over 233,000 refugees from that era alone are in the crosshairs for re-interviews, per a DHS memo. It’s a purge aimed at restoring what was lost: borders that mean something, communities that don’t live in fear, and a nation that puts its own first.
Beckstrom’s death, announced raw and real by Trump—”She’s just passed away. She’s no longer with us. She’s looking down on us right now”—turns the abstract debate into graveside reality. As Wolfe fights on, his father pleading for prayers, the question hangs heavy: How many more wake-up calls before the door locks for good? The system’s rot runs deep, but if this blood doesn’t seal the cracks, nothing will.
Safeguarding Your American Dream: Discover the Power of America First Healthcare
In today’s economy, healthcare costs remain one of the biggest threats to financial stability and family security. Americans work hard to build a better life, yet rising medical expenses can quickly erode savings, force tough trade-offs, and even push families toward debt or bankruptcy. Medical bills continue to rank as the leading cause of personal bankruptcy in the United States, with millions facing underinsurance or unexpected out-of-pocket burdens that no one plans for. Many turn to government-run marketplace plans under the Affordable Care Act, hoping for relief, only to discover that what appears affordable on paper often delivers higher long-term costs, limited real protection, and coverage that may not align with personal values or family needs.
America First Healthcare stands out as a private insurance agency dedicated to helping conservatives and families secure better coverage and better rates through customized, values-aligned options. By conducting free insurance reviews, the agency uncovers hidden gaps in existing policies and connects clients with private alternatives that emphasize personal responsibility, small-government principles, and genuine affordability—often delivering up to 20% savings while providing stronger protection for the American Dream.
The allure of marketplace plans is easy to understand: open enrollment periods, premium tax credits for many households, and the promise of “comprehensive” benefits mandated by law. Yet recent data reveals a different reality, especially after the expiration of enhanced premium subsidies at the end of 2025. Enrollment for 2026 dropped by more than one million people compared to the prior year, with many shifting to lower-tier bronze plans to keep monthly premiums manageable.
These plans feature significantly higher deductibles—averaging around $7,500 nationally—and greater cost-sharing requirements. Families who once paid modest amounts after subsidies now face average premium increases of $65 or more per month, even as they accept plans that leave them responsible for thousands in upfront costs before meaningful coverage kicks in.
High deductibles create a dangerous barrier to care. Studies show that people in such plans are less likely to seek timely treatment for chronic conditions, attend preventive screenings, or fill necessary prescriptions. A seemingly minor illness or injury can balloon into major expenses when patients delay care until problems worsen. For a family of four, a single hospitalization, cancer diagnosis, or unexpected surgery can easily exceed the deductible, triggering coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximums that still leave substantial bills. One recent analysis noted that some proposed changes could push family deductibles toward $31,000 in future years, further exposing households to financial risk.
Beyond the numbers, marketplace plans often carry structural limitations. Coverage for certain critical services may include waiting periods or narrower networks that restrict access to preferred doctors and specialists. Preventive care is required to be covered without cost-sharing, but everything else—lab work, imaging, specialist visits, or ongoing treatment—typically waits until the deductible is met. This reactive model contrasts sharply with the proactive, holistic approach many families prefer, especially those focused on wellness, early intervention, and maintaining health to enjoy life rather than merely reacting to illness.
Values alignment represents another growing concern. Government-influenced plans operate within a framework shaped by federal mandates and political priorities that may not reflect conservative principles of limited government, personal freedom, and ethical stewardship. Families who want to direct their healthcare dollars toward providers and benefits that honor traditional values sometimes find marketplace options feel misaligned, forcing a compromise between affordability and conviction.
Private alternatives, by contrast, offer year-round flexibility without the restrictions of open enrollment windows. Independent agents can shop across a wider range of carriers to design plans tailored to specific family needs—whether that means lower deductibles for frequent medical users, broader provider networks, or add-ons that support wellness and preventive services from day one. Clients frequently report more stable premiums that do not automatically escalate each year, along with genuine cost savings once the full picture of deductibles, copays, and coverage depth is considered.
Take the experience of real families who made the switch. Amanda C. shared that her new plan felt “way better” than what she had through the marketplace. Johnny Y. noted his previous coverage kept increasing annually until he found a more stable private option. Sofia S. expressed delight with her plan and began recommending it to others. These stories echo a common theme: when families move beyond one-size-fits-all government marketplaces, they often discover customized protection that better safeguards both health and finances.
Founder Jordan Sarmiento’s own journey underscores the stakes. In 2021, a six-day hospitalization generated a $95,000 bill. Under a well-structured private “Conservative Care Coverage” plan, his out-of-pocket responsibility would have been just $500. That stark difference illustrates how thoughtful planning and private options can prevent a medical event from becoming a financial catastrophe.
Practical steps exist for anyone questioning their current coverage. Start with a no-obligation review of your existing policy to identify gaps—high deductibles, limited critical-care benefits, or escalating premiums. Compare total projected costs (premiums plus potential out-of-pocket expenses) rather than monthly premiums alone. Consider family health history, anticipated needs, and lifestyle priorities. Private agencies can present side-by-side options that include stronger wellness incentives, broader access, and plans built on shared values of self-reliance and freedom.
In an era when healthcare inflation continues to outpace general cost-of-living increases, relying solely on marketplace solutions carries growing risk. Families who proactively explore private alternatives frequently achieve meaningful savings while gaining peace of mind that their coverage truly works when needed most.
America First Healthcare makes this exploration straightforward through its free review process. Families and individuals receive personalized guidance to close coverage holes, reduce unnecessary expenses, and secure plans that align with conservative principles—protecting wallets, health, and the American Dream without government overreach. Many who complete a review discover they can enjoy better benefits for less, often saving up to 20% while gaining the customization and stability that marketplace plans struggle to deliver.
Ultimately, protecting your family’s future requires looking beyond the marketing of “affordable” government options. By understanding the long-term costs hidden in high deductibles, shifting coverage tiers, and values mismatches, Americans can make empowered choices. Private, values-driven insurance offers a smarter path—one that rewards diligence, supports wellness, and delivers real security. For those ready to move beyond the limitations of traditional marketplace plans, a simple review can reveal options designed to serve families, not bureaucracies. The American Dream thrives when individuals and families retain control over their healthcare decisions, and thoughtful private coverage plays a vital role in making that possible.
It took a long time for President Trump to act on the growing infiltration of jihadists coming into the USA. One can only hope that ICE will ramp up deportation of all Muslims here illegally. It’s only a matter of time before We have our own October 7th.
Exactly, ending wars around the world when there is a war here in the USA.
WTF, you’re condoning this by not declaring the Insurrection Act, arrest all the politicians for aiding and abetting sanctuary cities now.
Interesting. I’ve claimed there are 50M illegal aliens for a while now. Good to see President Trump come out with a 53M number. And he also called out that Somalia woman for marrying her brother to gain citizenship. I cannot remember a pol doing that. Loads of newscaster, podcastsers, and the like, but not a pol.
So, President Trump has said it. Now do something about it.
All I can say, IT’S ABOUT GD TIME !!!
Finally! Thank you! Now let’s continue deporting everything that does not belong in the US.
At last! A thoroughly sensible political decision. THERE’S HOPE after all!
keep the true illegals who want to prosper….kick out ALL democrats. they are the enemy of this country. kick em out or kill em, it’s time for leftwing communist haters to go.
All foreign need to be kicked of this country.all
mosques need to be closed. All of them.. All zionist who infiltrate our government must go.
Literally all of them.. We have enough problems plus i’m sick of america becoming the third world. GTFOH with BS.. call me racist. i take it as a badge of honor.
what do the elites think is going to happen after decades of being pushed and lied to.?? What we’re living through the last 40 years is how you get Hitler stalin Mao.. This has happened throughout history and don’t think it can’t happen here. It’s going to happen here it’s already to late. they have radicalized the next few generations with their ignorance and evil. The elites have pushed so far the blowback will be tenfold. i would self deport if i was a foreigner.
