FBI Raids $2,000-a-Month Washington Apartment of Afghan Immigrant Who Ambushed Two National Guard Soldiers Near White House​

FBI agents raided the $2,000-a-month apartment in Bellingham, Washington, on Thursday, executing search warrants as part of a rapidly expanding terrorism probe tied to Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the gunman who ambushed and shot two National Guard members just steps from the White House.
The raid, led by FBI counterterrorism agents, seized multiple electronic devices, cellphones, laptops, iPads, from a residence that stunned neighbors described as “sparse,” with no beds, just couch cushions they would sleep on, and “barely any furniture,” IBT reported.

Ramanullah has a job at the local hospital working in the laundry, the kids are all in public school and the parents are taking English classes. We can’t imagine the hardships they have been through, but we think they are doing well.”

According to locals, Lakanwal spoke little English, barely mingled with neighbors, and was ‘often seen playing Call of Duty’ inside his apartment.
The FBI confirmed that this is no longer just a shooting investigation, it is now a full-scale counterterrorism operation, possibly with international angles.


Officials confirm that Lakanwal entered the U.S. in 2021 during Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program, which resettled tens of thousands of Afghans following the botched withdrawal from Kabul.

JD Vance Warned the Country About Accepting Unvetted Afghan Refugees in 2021 – And He Was Right (VIDEO)​

All of this was avoidable, and do you know who warned us? Then Senator JD Vance. In 2021, Vance put out a video message that was largely a response to Senator Ben Sasse, saying that we needed to be careful about bringing unvetted Afghan refugees into the country.


This came up again in January of this year. Once again, Vance was warning about unvetted Afghan refugees as Margaret Brennan of CBS News interrupted him and insisted that these people are vetted. Watch:

Biden’s 2023 legislation required this guy to get permission to stay. Final paper works signed by ministerial order in 2025 in early days of the Trump administration.
Under Biden’s orders, there was no choice other than finalized the earlier mandate to grant him freedom from deportation. Trump did not let this guy in. Biden insured by law he could stay.

I’d sure question if they didn’t raid his apartment. Not sure why $2,000/month means anything at all. I’ll bet that’s about the going rate in that crap hole

Good thing the FBI got on site so quickly to sanitize the scene so that the People will never find out what the real story is.

I’d like to believe this is true but where did this data come from? Many states deny this even happens so they certainly aren’t coughing these numbers up. I’m a guy that likes to verify facts on both sides.
I’m certain illegals are getting assistance I’m just wanting to know where this info came from.

Listen, we're trying to foment a civil war here against the illegals Biden let into America, so knock it off with the "facts" thing.
The Right/Christian/Conservative sometimes erroneously referred to as "Republican" have had enough of being castigated as "White Supremacist" we're sick of our Charity and Benevolence being abused and worst of all DEMANDED, then being paid out by Government Bureaucrats too fucking stupid or apathetic to see blatant fraud, waste, and abuse! Love him or hate him matters not, Trump IS President and he's been right about damn near everything, and the whiney-ass Left with their subliminal and seditious (do look up the charge in 18 USC 15) messages can go suck that dirty Donkey's Dick.

Here is from the National Immigration Forum. Im not sure how honest they are, but here they say it is possible for illegals to get SNAP in certain circumstances. As we know, states like NY and California will bend rules to make "certain circumstances" more readily available.

"Undocumented immigrants may be eligible for a handful of benefits that are deemed necessary to
protect life or guarantee safety in dire situations, such as emergency Medicaid, access to treatment
in hospital emergency rooms, or access to healthcare and nutrition programs under the Special
Supplemental Nutrition Program"

I believe in the previous post from @livingston the poster confused ILLEGAL immigrants with NON CITIZENS, which that data seems to support.

Nearly Half of Non-Citizen Households with Young Children Use Food Welfare Programs

These results indicate that immigrant communities are going to be hard hit if the shutdown continues. The results also are a reminder that once low-income immigrants settle in the country, it is very difficult to prevent their use of the welfare system.

No doubt in my mind they are getting benefits. I know they do and I know NYS does it. They give out ID’s to illegals here and I know a guy who was struggling to get one that’s a citizen. The lady too pity on him because he’s a recovering drug addict the converted to Christ so she said ok. He’s trying to do better and provide a stable house for his daughters.

Here is the issue with that. It also says they can’t break it down by country it’s the western hemisphere. This is a best guess at best. Again I know it’s happening and it shouldn’t be. One person is too many. Even those legally here should not be eligible for government benefits outside of extreme cases. If you want to come here then make it yourself if not stay where you’re at.

From the article posted.

End Notes​

1 In the figure with this study, we refer to this population as the “Western Hemisphere.”

2 We have not yet developed an estimate for illegal immigrants in the 2024 SIPP. However, we have estimated 13.7 million illegal immigrants were in the monthly Current Population Survey in 2024. (Our total estimate of 14 million at that time includes an undercount adjustment). This means that 53 percent of non-citizens in that survey are unauthorized. A similar percentage seems likely in the SIPP. However, the SIPP shows a smaller overall foreign-born population and fewer non-citizens than the CPS, partly due to the weighting and sampling frame of each survey. The SIPP also has a larger population of people who identify as born aboard of American parents than the CPS or other Census Bureau surveys. These individuals are included with the U.S.-born in all prior studies of this kind and in this analysis as well. As best we can tell, the larger population of these individuals does not appear to make a significant difference in welfare use by nativity.

It’s amazing that this woman, now a host on MSNOW, has the audacity to go on TV and accuse Trump and his administration of being untruthful or of spreading misinformation. She stood at that podium and did nothing but lie for Joe Biden for years.
