Trump seeks to block all immigration from “third world countries.”
Washington Struck: Immediate Response from the White House
In the wake of an armed attack in Washington, the White House has announced a particularly radical shift in immigration policy. President Donald Trump stated his intention to end immigration from what he refers to as “third world countries,” following a shooting incident involving an Afghan national targeting two National Guard soldiers.
End of Approved Applications Under Biden and Review of Green Cards
Donald Trump has threatened to cancel “millions” of applications that were approved during the Biden administration, vowing to deport everyone he claims “does not contribute value to the United States.”
In line with this reasoning, his administration plans to review Green Cards issued to citizens from over a dozen countries deemed sensitive.
Comprehensive Immigration Review Ordered for Federal Authorities
The director of U.S. Customs and Immigration Services confirmed receiving orders to conduct a “general and thorough” review of all permanent residency cases involving foreigners from these countries. This measure represents one of the most stringent immigration policies announced during Trump’s presidency.
Heavy Human Toll Following the Shooting
Donald Trump also announced the death of Sarah Bekstrom, one of the two soldiers targeted in Wednesday’s shooting. The condition of the second soldier remains critical, according to authorities.
FBI International Terrorism Investigation Launched
The FBI has initiated an international terrorism investigation after identifying the suspected shooter: a 29-year-old Afghan national who previously collaborated with U.S. forces in Afghanistan. This attack raises fresh concerns about national security and the vetting processes for immigration.
