President Trump Halts Immigration From ALL Third World Countries, Demands Green Card Audits

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.
