The two West Virginia National Guard members were ambushed and shot near the White House on Wednesday by an Afghan national who was resettled in the United States through a Biden-era program funded entirely by American taxpayers.
Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, succumbed to her injuries on Thanksgiving, while Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, remains in critical condition.
This incident underscores a harsh reality: billions in U.S. tax dollars have been poured into resettling tens of thousands of Afghans, some of whom pose a direct threat to American lives and security.
Author and political commentator Mike Cernovich shared a post breaking down the cost and wrote, “We are being forced to fund our own destruction.”
The shooter, 29-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in September 2021 under Operation Allies Welcome (OAW), a hasty resettlement initiative launched by the Biden administration following the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal.
Lakanwal, who had previously worked with the CIA and Afghan partner forces in Kandahar, drove cross-country from his home in Bellingham, Washington, to carry out what authorities describe as a targeted ambush.
Since 2021, the U.S. government has spent over $14 billion on Afghan evacuees, including $8.7 billion specifically for OAW through the Departments of Defense, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security.
An additional $5.3 billion went to its successor, Enduring Welcome.
A 2021 Department of Defense contract awarded nearly $974 million, with $888 million outlayed, to URS Federal Services International for OAW refugee support at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.
That’s your money, hard-working Americans, being used to import potential threats.
Lakanwal’s resettlement in Washington state was facilitated by World Relief, a Soros-linked NGO that receives U.S. taxpayer dollars through USAID.
President Donald Trump is now working overtime to right this wrong, announcing a permanent pause on migration from “Third World countries” and vowing to terminate Biden-era illegal admissions.
This isn’t an isolated tragedy. It’s a symptom of a broken system where Americans are forced to bankroll their own peril. Billions funneled into resettlement have brought over 72,000 Afghans, many with questionable backgrounds, into our neighborhoods.
It’s time to end these reckless programs, secure our borders, and put American safety first.

Updated Eve of Destruction. (1965 #1 hit by Barry McGuire).
Ah, you don’t believe
we’re forced to fund our own destruction.
Note: That antiwar song resulted in pushback—
“Researcher Justin Brummer, founding editor of the Vietnam War Song Project, has identified 25 answer records referring to “Eve of Destruction”. A group called The Spokesmen released “The Dawn of Correction” which became a Top 40 hit. Singer Tony Mammarella released a positive answer song titled “Eve of Tomorrow”.”
STOP THIS FUNDING MADNESS.
STOP IT !!!
Trudeau filled up Canada with terrorist and the EU did the same
Every superpower in history met their demise by over spending, debt & foreign wars. Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.
The people who do these things, do not have the health and happiness of US citizens in mind. They PURPOSELY are destroying out country.
