Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the man who authorities say shot two National Guardsmen outside the White House, had previously worked in a CIA-backed “Zero Unit” in Afghanistan, often called “death squads” by human rights groups. “The United States made this person into a child soldier, and now is experiencing what I think is one of the most horrifically bright-line cases of imperial blowback that we’ve seen throughout the 'war on terror,'” says Spencer Ackerman, journalist and author focused on U.S. military and foreign policy.

What the heck was holding up Rahmanullah Lakanwal's ability to renew his work permit after he was granted asylum by the Trump administration?
"He passed every vetting process, including those conducted under both the Biden and Trump administrations.
He was granted asylum earlier this year—under the Trump administration.
These facts have been reported by Jennifer Griffin, a veteran Fox News national security correspondent with extensive access to intelligence and military sources."

"The truth? The suspect was a vetted CIA-affiliated Afghan ally of the United States.
Here are the verified facts:
The suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was not an undocumented immigrant.
He worked with the CIA beginning around 2011, during the U.S. mission in Afghanistan.
He was vetted multiple times over more than a decade—by the CIA, the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), and again during Operation Allies Welcome."

"A major falsehood circulating online, amplified by the White House and echoed by several media figures, claims that the D.C. National Guard shooting suspect was an undocumented immigrant who slipped through broken vetting procedures.
That narrative is simply false."
