00:01
My great fellow Americans, earlier today on the eve of the Thanksgiving holiday, two
00:06
members of the National Guard serving in Washington, D.C., were shot at point-blank
00:12
range in a monstrous ambush-style attack just steps away from the White House.
00:17
They had been deputized as part of the most successful public safety and national security
00:22
mission in the history of our nation's capital, the D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force, which
00:29
has achieved an unprecedented reduction in violent crime and crimes of all types.
00:36
This heinous assault was an act of evil, an act of hatred, and an act of terror.
00:42
It was a crime against our entire nation.
00:45
It was a crime against humanity.
00:48
The hearts of all Americans tonight are with those two members of the West Virginia National
00:53
Guard and their families.
00:55
The love of our entire country is pouring out for them, and we are lifting them up in
01:01
our prayers.
01:03
As we are filled with anguish and grief for those who were shot, we're also filled with
01:09
righteous anger and ferocious resolve.
01:12
As President of the United States, I am determined to ensure that the animal who perpetrated this
01:20
atrocity pays the steepest possible price.
01:24
I can report tonight that, based on the best available information, the Department of Homeland
01:29
Security is confident that the suspect in custody is a foreigner who entered our country from
01:35
Afghanistan, a hellhole on Earth.
01:39
He was flown in by the Biden administration in September 2021 on those infamous flights that
01:45
everybody was talking about.
01:48
Nobody knew who was coming in.
01:50
Nobody knew anything about it.
01:52
His status was extended under legislation signed by President Biden, a disastrous president,
01:59
the worst in the history of our country.
02:02
This attack underscores the single greatest national security threat facing our nation.
02:08
The last administration let in 20 million unknown and unvetted foreigners from all over the
02:14
world, from places that you don't want to even know about.
02:18
No country can tolerate such a risk to our very survival.
02:23
An example is Minnesota, where hundreds of thousands of Somalians are ripping off our country and
02:31
ripping apart that once great state.
02:34
Billions of dollars are lost and gangs of Somalians come from a country that doesn't even have a
02:41
government, no laws, no water, no military, no nothing, as their representatives in our country preach to
02:48
us about our Constitution and how our country is no good.
02:53
We're not going to put up with these kind of assaults on law and order by people who shouldn't even be in our country.
03:01
We must now re-examine every single alien who has entered our country from Afghanistan under Biden.
03:08
And we must take all necessary measures to ensure the removal of any alien from any country who does not
03:15
belong here or add benefit to our country.
03:19
If they can't love our country, we don't want them.
03:21
America will never bend and never yield in the face of terror.
03:26
And at the same time, we will not be deterred from the mission
03:30
these service members were so nobly fulfilling.
03:34
That is why tonight I can announce that I have directed the Department of War to mobilize an
03:39
additional 500 troops to help protect our capital city.
03:45
We will make America totally safe again.
03:48
And we will bring the perpetrator of this barbaric attack to swift and certain justice,
03:54
if the bullets going in the opposite direction haven't already done that.
03:59
During this time of the year, when we gather at home with loved ones,
04:03
these two patriots were wearing the uniform of our country patrolling the streets of our
04:09
Capitol.
04:10
They had taken a selfless oath to defend our nation against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
04:16
And that is exactly what they were doing when they were gunned down in a savage attack.
04:22
I want to express my extraordinary gratitude to every member of the United States military who is
04:28
deployed tonight at home and abroad. I also want to thank the Secret Service and the D.C. Metropolitan
04:34
Police Department for their work today. This Thanksgiving, I ask every family to say a prayer for
04:41
the two great heroes who were so horribly shot. And for their loved ones, please say a prayer.
04:48
May God bless them and comfort them. And may God bless and protect the United States of America.
04:55
Thank you and good night.
