Homeland Security Secretary Noem: All vetting of Guard shooting suspect took place under Biden
  • Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem stated that the Biden administration is responsible for any vetting failures related to the Afghan refugee accused of shooting two National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C. The suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, allegedly carried out the attack on November 26, 2025, resulting in critical injuries to the Guardsmen.
  • This incident raises significant concerns regarding the vetting processes for Afghan refugees resettled in the U.S. under the Biden administration, highlighting potential lapses in security protocols that could have serious implications for public safety.
  • The shooting incident has sparked a broader debate about the effectiveness of the U.S. immigration system, particularly in relation to the resettlement of Afghan nationals following the Taliban's takeover. It has also prompted scrutiny of both the Biden and Trump administrations' policies, as well as discussions about domestic radicalization and security measures for immigrants.
