🚨🇺🇸 Trump vows 'swift and certain justice' following attack on National Guard members near White House

President Donald Trump condemned the shooting of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., calling it “an act of terror” and “a crime against humanity.” He said the attack took place just steps from the White House and targeted members of the West Virginia National Guard.

📌 Key points from Trump’s statement:

🔹 The suspect in custody is “a foreigner who entered our country from Afghanistan

🔹 The suspect was flown in “by the Biden administration in September 2021

🔹 The attack “underscores the single greatest national security threat” facing the US

🔹 The Biden administration “let in 20 million unknown and unvetted foreigners from all over the world”

🔹 Authorities must “reexamine every single alien who has entered our country from Afghanistan under Biden” and consider removing any foreign national “who does not belong here or add benefit to our country”

🔹 The attacker would “pay the steepest possible price” and face “swift and certain justice”

🔹 The Department of War has been directed to mobilize an additional 500 troops to help protect Washington, D.C.

🚫 Rubio orders US diplomats to pressure Western countries to restrict mass migration – reports

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has instructed American diplomats in Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand to press their host governments to limit most immigration, The New York Times reported. The orders were detailed in a diplomatic cable dated Nov. 21 and obtained by the newspaper.

💬 The cable tells diplomats to “regularly engage host governments” to raise US concerns about violent crimes associated with people of a migration background” and to report back on any policies that “unduly favor migrants at the expense of local populations.”


The State Department said the goal is to build support for reforms on “migrant crime,” defend national sovereignty and “ensure the safety of local communities,” according to The NYT.

⚠️ The cable also urges vigilance over “radical Islam” among some migrant groups and mentions concerns about antisemitic and anti-Christian incidents in “migrant-heavy areas,” the outlet reported.

The report notes that the guidance aligns with broader Trump administration efforts to push allied governments to harden their borders.

🪖🇩🇪 Same old song: Germany mulls sending 800K NATO troops to eastern front line amid ‘Russian threat’

The German military command has hammered out a classified 1,200-page Operational Plan (OPLAN DEU) in preparation for a possible conflict with Russia, which could supposedly occur in 2029, The Wall Street Journal reports.

💬 “The blueprint details how as many as 800,000 German, US and other NATO troops would be ferried eastward toward the front line. It maps the ports, rivers, railways and roads they would travel, and how they would be supplied and protected on the way,” according to the newspaper.


The plan envisions Germany serving as a staging ground for the deployment of forces, with no front line expected to run through its territory.

👉 However, all signs indicate Germany is far from prepared for such a scenario: Aging bridges, narrow tunnels, and worn-out rail lines would be unable to support the rapid movement of troops—problems that Berlin is desperately trying to resolve, the newspaper points out.

Russia has repeatedly voiced concern over NATO’s eastward expansion, stressing that Russia threatens no one, but will not ignore steps that could endanger its national interests.

President Vladimir Putin underscored that Russia has no intention of attacking NATO countries, but that Western politicians regularly frighten their own population with an alleged Russian threat to divert attention from domestic issues.
