Trump to “permanently pause third-world” immigration
Former President donald Trump announced that the United States will “permanently pause” immigration from “third-world countries” following the shooting of two National Guard members near the White House,which resulted in the death of National guard member Sarah Beckstrom. Trump called for a policy of “reverse migration” and vowed to terminate all immigration admissions under President Biden’s governance that he deems illegal. He emphasized removing immigrants who are not seen as contributing positively to the country or who are “incapable of loving our Country.” The shooting suspect, an Afghan national who was granted legal asylum, had ties to U.S.-backed groups in Afghanistan. Trump also declared intentions to end federal benefits to non-citizens and denaturalize migrants considered threats to domestic peace. The specifics of how these policies would be implemented remain unclear and are expected to face legal and political challenges.
Trump says he will pause immigration from ‘third-world countries’ after shooting
President Donald Trump said that the United States will “permanently pause” all immigration from “third-world countries” and pursue a policy of “reverse migration” in response to the shooting of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C.
Trump’s social media post on immigration followed his announcement of the death of Sarah Beckstrom, one of the two guard members shot in the attack close to the White House on Wednesday. Beckstrom, a National Guard member from West Virginia, was 20 years old.
Federal officials have said that Wednesday’s attack on the two troops near the White House was carried out by an Afghan national who worked with a CIA-backed group during the U.S. war in Afghanistan. Records indicate that the suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in September 2021 following the withdrawal of American troops, but he was granted legal asylum in April this year.
Trump posted shortly after the announcement of Beckstrom’s death that his administration would take steps to deport foreign nationals who are “non-compatible with Western Civilization.”
“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 who is incapable of loving our Country,” Trump posted.
Trump also said that “Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation.”
When asked about which countries constituted “third-world” in light of Trump’s announcement, Immigration and Customs Enforcement referred the Washington Examiner to the 19 countries listed in Trump’s June Executive Order restricting the entry of foreign nationals from dangerous countries. That list includes Afghanistan, Cuba, Haiti, Iran, Somalia, and Venezuela, among others.
The president also said he would “end all Federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our Country” and “denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility.”
Exactly how this would be carried out is unclear, as it is likely to receive significant pushback from the courts and Congress.
The Washington Examiner contacted the White House for more details.
