The shooter's work with the CIA's "zero team" in Afghanistan is in the WaPo today. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/11/28/national-guard-rahmanullah-lakanwal-shooting-suspect/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F45ee0e2%2F6929e0b42d6e7670ef2bf16a%2F62122d12ae7e8a6b2f3d07a3%2F15%2F66%2F6929e0b42d6e7670ef2bf16a |

I worked for many years very close to the corner where the guardsmen were shot and took the metro at the station where they were shot. That is not a unsafe area.
There was ONE incident of ONE individual shooting at guardsmen. Why does this require 500 additional guardsmen in DC and the need for DC police to patrol with the NG? BREAKING: D.C. police to begin patrolling with National Guard after fatal attack Troops patrolling in D.C. will be paired with local law enforcement personnel, at least temporarily, in the wake of the Wednesday attack that killed one National Guard member and critically injured another, according to an email obtained by The Washington Post and two D.C. police officials. If enacted on a long-term basis, the change would significantly shift the way National Guard members have worked with law enforcement in the District since their arrival. |
I once read copy cat events average 11 days after the initial event. |
The "incident" with the CIA trained former soldier in a totally safe area was probably planned in order to bring the 500 additional guardsmen in. Bet they didn't expect the former soldier to get captured or get wounded. RIP Sarah. We are all praying for your family. |
+100. |
Golly, I wonder when responsibility for juvenile justice transitioned from the Mayor to an elected Attorney General? |
Uh, huh. Horses, not zebras. |
The wife and five kids need to be deported pronto. The POS who killed our NG soldier will be tried for capital murder and hopefully get the death sentence. Time to thoroughly vet all those Afghans that Biden brought in unvetted. If they cannot be thoroughly vetted, deport them. Enough of this nonsense. |
Again, asylum approval was granted by the Trump administration |

Trump did vet him.

Worked on the ground keeping Trump’s troops safe in his country while Trump increased troops in his country only to pull out and leave him vulnerable to death. |
Is this supposed to be some sort of gotcha? The people approving these are career officers navigating policies set forth by multiple administrations. |
This is the problem. Time to start cleaning house and get rid of people in these agencies who seem to have agendas. |
I’m maga, highly educated and not religious |
What is strange is his neighbors say the 29 year old shooter has a 14 year old son. Is this really his son or a relative he just added to his list of children? Or is the shooter really 29? Is he really a person who worked with the CIA of could it be an older brother or cousin using his name? In a chaotic withdrawal from a country with a lack of official government documents how can anyone really know who has come. |
