A senior Trump administration counterterrorism official is calling for the mass roundup and deportation of tens of thousands of Afghan refugees admitted to the United States under President Joe Biden, claiming that their presence led to the Washington D.C. shooting involving two National Guard members.
Joe Kent, a former Army Green Beret and longtime MAGA activist, made the eyebrow-raising demand Friday in a post to his X account in response to what he called a “barbaric terrorist attack.”
“Vetting a foreigner in a war zone to determine if he will fight a common enemy is vastly different than vetting a foreigner to see if he is suitable to live in our country,” he said in the post. “Yet under Biden tens of thousands of Afghans were brought to America using the war zone vetting standard. This is why the DC attack happened.”
Kent, who was confirmed by the Senate earlier this year as director of the National Counterterrorism Center, then called for sweeping removals.
“The solution is rounding up everyone Biden let in & deporting them immediately,” he concluded.
