In a Friday morning appearance on Fox News' Fox & Friends, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard said the Biden administration had let more than 2,000 Afghan nationals with terrorism ties into the United States in the wake of the 2021 botched Afghanistan withdrawal. The startling number was revealed just weeks after two members of the West Virginia National Guard guarding the streets of Washington, D.C., were ambushed – one died of her injuries and the other is still in the hospital recovering – by an Afghan man who was brought to the U.S. as part of Biden's Operation Allies Welcome program.
According to DNI Gabbard, however, many of these Afghans now residing in the country aren't our allies, even if they did once work alongside our troops. She revealed that 100,000 poorly-vetted Afghans came to U.S. after the withdrawal, and of that number, "there are at least 2,000 who are known or suspected terrorists."

And that's just the ones we know about. As Gabbard pointed out, millions of unvetted foreign nationals streamed over the southern border during the Biden administration, so we're looking at untold numbers of Islamists and persons with terrorist ties of all kinds lurking in our communities.
Those numbers come via the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), which is part of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Joe Kent, NCTC's director, has been sounding the alarm "over the Biden admin’s policy of importing people hostile to our nation," and told a Thursday meeting of the House Homeland Security Committee that the suspected Guardsmen shooter did not undergo rigorous vetting before he and his family were brought to the U.S.
"The individual was vetted to serve as a soldier in Afghanistan, and that vetting standard was used by the Biden administration as a ruse to bring him here," Kent replied. "Had we followed the Standard Operating Procedures for special immigrant visas, that individual and none of the (others) ... would have come to America. That's on Joe Biden."
(It was at this hearing that Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson (MS-2) made his now-infamous "accident" blunder when talking about the ambush on the Guardsmen. As RedState's Rusty Weiss reported, Thompson was so riled up that he called the shootings an "unfortunate accident," when we all know it was an entirely avoidable tragedy that would not have occurred had the Biden administration made the safety of Americans its number one priority.)
DNI Gabbard also revealed that the NCTC, along with its partners in the FBI and DHS, are "revetting every single one of these individuals." She added, "We know that Al Qaeda and ISIS continue to actively plot attacks against our homeland."

The news of the "revetting" apparently scares those who worked to bring so many Afghan nationals into U.S. communities. "So what I'm actually worried is that they're just going to use this as an excuse to go back through and look at people in a different light than that is actually required by law," remarked Shawn VanDiver, the president of resettlement group #AfghanEvac. VanDiver added, "And we know 100% for sure that they were all vetted."
The cleanup on Aisle Biden continues.
You can’t tell me biden wasn’t bribed to do this.
We left the ones behind who helped us to be captured and tortured by the Taliban but let these guys in.
Brilliant foreign policy.
The fact that Joe Biden and some of his associates remain free men and women is disturbing and I wonder how long that will remain the case. Incompetence is one thing but obvious acts of treason in plain sight require a response, you would think. This, the border debacle, and quite possibly aspects of funding Ukraine without proper oversight, are all very serious failures that can have only one logical explanation.
Not surprising. Sad state of affairs for this to have occurred.
It does not surprise one iota. We are committing National Suicide and no one gives a damn.
“Ali”, a former Iraqi translator for Bush I, called into the Chris Plante Show yesterday. (iHeart radio).
Long an American citizen, Ali works in DC and says Islamic corruption is widespread in the US—and not just Somali corruption.
Chris “ran out the clock” on Ali, but I hope to hear more of what he has to say...
The Afghan withdrawal was total fiasco.
Apparently one of few things Biden ordered on his own!
It was planned
Barry is behind it, not Biden.
I totally agree.
It is disturbing that there have been no consequences.
There is plenty of evidence but no justice.
When Biden co. left our embassy they left behind the bio ID files and equipment for the tali.
Who controlled the Afghan side of Abby gate ?
Not us.
The tali
So who do you suppose they let through that gate to swamp the evac aircraft ?
Almost as if someone knew something.
After a quick check, I see that my blood is not running cold. However, my temper is showing signs of warming.
“...We left the ones behind who helped us to be captured and tortured...”
The US did the same thing in S. Korea
Populism is a movement that says the People are more important than the government - no wonder politicians hate the thought...
Oops - wrong thread - I sometimes have too many tabs open....
I have been watching Victoria on Netflix. The Afghans killed 16,000 British soldiers in a slaughter. Afghanistan has been a hellhole for centuries and should be given up on. No good will ever come out of there.
“You can’t tell me biden wasn’t bribed to do this.”
Biden didn’t need bribing. He was in on the flooding America with illegals for votes decades ago.
The vast majority of Afghans are Muslims, with the population being over 99% Muslim. The majority are Sunni Muslims (Hanafi school), while a minority (10-15%) are Shia Muslims, mostly from the Hazara ethnic group.
Islam is deeply intertwined with Afghan identity and social life, and it is the state religion.
Afghanistan is one of the most Islamic countries in the world, with nearly the entire population identifying as Muslim. Islam plays a profound role in shaping Afghan society, culture, and politics. The government has historically ruled according to strict interpretations of Shari’a law.
DHS.com——Tens of thousands of unvetted Afghan aliens have hurt and terrorized Americans after the Biden administration flooded our communities with criminals, terrorists, and other threats.
Muslim criminals Biden rewarded w/ American generosity returned the favor w/ violence:
Jamal Wali, an Afghan national let into the country under the Biden administration through Operation Allies Welcome, shot and wounded two Fairfax, Virginia, police officers during a routine traffic stop. He was killed by return fire after declaring “I should have served with the f–king Taliban!”
