Payam Javan: The tragic ambush of our brave National Guard servicemembers in Washington D.C., which shockingly claimed the life of Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, is a stark, devastating reminder of the dangers posed by reckless open-border policies. This horrific act, allegedly committed by an Afghan national admitted into our nation under the guise of ‘humanitarian relief’ after the disastrous Biden-era withdrawal from Afghanistan, exposes the gaping holes in our national security. President Donald J. Trump, ever the steadfast protector of American lives, immediately rose to the occasion, demanding a full review and decisive action to safeguard our homeland from those who wish us harm.
President Trump didn’t mince words, taking to Truth Social to articulate the profound crisis facing our nation due to uncontrolled immigration. He rightly pointed out the staggering 53 million foreign nationals currently residing here, many of whom, as he highlighted, are dependents on welfare, hail from failed states, or worse, come from prisons, mental institutions, and criminal gangs. The former President powerfully illustrated this point with the alarming situation in Minnesota, where, as he described, ‘hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State,’ fostering ‘social dysfunction’ and leaving patriotic Americans feeling vulnerable. This isn’t just about numbers; it’s about the very fabric of our society.
In a swift and commendable response, the Trump administration, through USCIS, immediately moved to implement critical safeguards. All asylum requests have been halted indefinitely, a necessary pause to ensure ‘every alien is vetted and screened to the maximum degree possible,’ because as Director Joseph B. Edlow rightly stated, ‘The safety of the American people always comes first.’ Furthermore, review processes for applicants from 19 ‘high-risk’ countries have been significantly enhanced, treating country-specific factors as ‘negative factors’ from the outset. This decisive action reaffirms President Trump’s unwavering commitment to prioritizing national security and the well-being of our citizens over any globalist fantasy.
While the establishment media and their globalist allies may try to muddy the waters with debates about ‘nuance,’ the message from President Trump and true American patriots like J.D. Vance is crystal clear: we must restore sanity to our immigration system. This isn’t about shutting out talent; it’s about protecting our sovereignty, our culture, and our people. The recent tragedy underscores the urgent need to end the flow of those who do not share our values or contribute positively to our nation. President Trump’s vision for ‘permanently paus[ing] migration from all Third World Countries’ and removing those who are ‘not a net asset’ is not just policy; it is a patriotic imperative to preserve America for future generations.
