In a passionate late-night address, President Trump responded to the recent terrorist attack on the National Guard by announcing a sweeping crackdown on immigration from all third-world nations. He pledged to end all illegal border crossings that occurred during the Biden administration and advocated for “reverse migration” as a solution to protect America.
This statement followed the tragic ambush on two National Guard members in Washington, D.C. Just hours earlier, the President had informed the nation of the death of 20-year-old Sarah Beckstrom, one of the victims who succumbed to her injuries.
The perpetrator of this attack, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national, had entered the U.S. on a temporary visa in 2021. This visa was part of Operation Allies Welcome, a program aimed at resettling Afghan nationals following President Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Trump’s remarks reflected his typical straightforward style, laced with sarcasm. He opened with, “A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being ‘Politically Correct,’ and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration.”
Despite the sarcasm, Trump’s message tapped into the raw emotions many feel when facing a tragedy that seems avoidable.
Trump argued that the immigration system has long been overwhelmed and reached a critical point during the previous administration. He claimed that a shadow team wielded power in Washington, making decisions that threatened American citizens. He insisted that the American people have endured this situation for too long.
Trump suggests that he would now speak for the people, pointing out that he is not the type to hold back.
This is one of the most important messages ever released by President Trump.

While some will get lost in the jabs at Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-5) (and by some, we mean the media, who will do their best to run a diversion for the DNC by taking the focus off the main message) and her “swaddling hijab,” or his portrayal of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) as “retarded,” Trump delivers one of the most potent messages he’s ever given.
He’s not playing around. Trump perfectly conveys talking points that have rightly angered the American people when it comes to the failures of the immigration system and the obvious effort to prioritize people coming into the country over those already here.
He ticks those items off one by one:
- “A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family.”
- “The real migrant population is much higher.”
- “This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America …”
- “… hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota.”
- That Omar is one of the biggest critics of the American experience despite the fact that “her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime-ridden nation.”
- “Even as we have progressed technologically, Immigration Policy has eroded those gains and living conditions for many.”
And with all of that as background, Trump announces his next move.
“I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of Biden illegal admissions … and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country,” Trump writes.
The President proceeds to declare an end to “all federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our country,” and that he will hereby “denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.”
The message is quite clear. Democrats and your progressive little jihad squad? It’s over. We’ve tolerated this nonsense long enough. No more.
I voted for this.
The Trump administration is looking at overhauling the US refugee system, giving preference to English speakers and those who might better assimilate.

It can be argued about how the President might implement such policies, sure. There will no doubt be massive pushback from Democrats and milquetoast Republicans alike.
One can argue what constitutes a “permanent pause” as well. But the reality is, there needs to be some pause. There needs to be a fix. And if Congress isn’t going to do something, President Trump is. We must rein in the system before it swallows the country as a whole.
Republican Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) responded to the President’s invective by pointing to his “PAUSE Act,” legislation he introduced just weeks ago to “freeze immigration until we’ve acted to permanently fix the mess.”
“The problem isn’t just illegal immigration; it’s also legal immigration,” Roy said in a statement while introducing the Act. “While the Biden administration opened our borders and allowed millions to flood into our country, they also rubber-stamped millions more arriving through convoluted legal schemes, completely overwhelming the system.
President @realDonaldTrump is of course correct and Congressional Republicans should support him. This is why I introduced the PAUSE Act (HR 6225) two weeks ago to freeze immigration until we’ve acted to permanently fix the mess! pic.twitter.com/skPtGIlsg7

Trump concluded the latest post by explaining that his next move aims to achieve “a major reduction in illegal and disruptive populations, including those admitted through an unauthorized and illegal Autopen approval process.”
Are you here for it? Do you agree?
“Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation,” Trump added. “Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for.”
“You won’t be here for long!”
