Washington, D.C.—Today, U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett (D-Austin) delivered the following speech on the House floor demanding answers on Trump’s Administration vetting of the attacker on the National Guard members in D.C. last week: "We all mourn the loss from the tragic attack here last week on two National Guard members. Yet once again the master of distraction seeks to avoid any accountability for his role in this tragedy. Only 7 months earlier, it was the Trump Administration that granted the assassin asylum. Big unanswered questions for the President: What specific vetting was done with regard to the 3 years this assassin lived here in America? Was his post-traumatic stress from his prior violent work considered? Was the caseworker who reported his possible radicalization interviewed an reviewed? Was his inability to even get a job a factor? Did this review include “biometric information, check social media platforms and other steps? Instead of blaming all immigrants, blaming Biden, how about just looking in the mirror and figuring out what went wrong here in this regime and how to fix it in order to avoid another tragedy. Americans deserve accountability and answers.” | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
