The Trump regime doesn’t want to say the shooter got asylum under Trump because that would undercut their political campaign to blame Biden.
REPORTER: Can you clarify the timeline of when the suspect was granted asylum?
KASH PATEL: I believe Kristi Noem put that out, and that's a DHS matter and I'll refer it to them

It is wrong to punish an entire community for the actions of one person. The only thing that might have prevented this is not putting National Guard troops where they shouldn't be. And now the administration is doubling down on its bad decision.
This dude was vetted six ways from Sunday. Can’t say he wasn’t vetted enough. Vetted by multiple administrations.

Yes, certainly, the anti-vaccine/MAHA/Great Barrington Declaration/conspiracy theory movement is both wildly authoritarian AND eugenicist
MAHA is expanding its reach but many experts in authoritarianism are hearing echoes of the eugenics movement, the discredited pseudoscience that supports racial superiority & quackery, not scientific facts. Make America Healthy Again pushes vulnerable people aside & cuts off lifelines to healthcare👇

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

It may be premature to treat this as traditional terrorism.
It sounds like this guy was one of the people everyone involved in Afghanistan said should be protected, bc going back would be a death sentence.
Also note his aptitudes would come from Special Forces/CIA.

There is talk going around that DHS is now arresting people who fly *domestically* if they have final orders of removal.
Undocumented youth should consider consulting a lawyer to find out what their record is -- especially those whose parents had prior interactions with immigration.

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.
