President Donald Trump on Sunday said his administration’s halt on asylum processing in the wake of the deadly National Guard shooting earlier this week could last "a long time," and floated the possibility of revoking citizenship from some naturalized immigrants with criminal histories.
"We have criminals that came into our country and they were naturalized," Trump said, vowing that, "If I have the power to do it – I’m not sure that I do, but if I do – I would de-naturalize. Absolutely."
U.S. Army Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, was killed, while her colleague, U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, remains in critical condition. Several cabinet members including DHS Secretary Kristi Noem believe the Afghan national charged in the attack was radicalized after coming here under former President Joe Biden's watch.
