This broadcast centers on the ambush and critical shooting of two National Guardsmen in Washington D.C. by an alleged Afghan national. Rita Cosby connects the violence to the suspect's entry into the U.S. via the 2021 humanitarian parole program, arguing that the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan resulted in a failure to properly vet incoming individuals. Host Rita Cosby and her callers express intense outrage, asserting that negative political rhetoric from the left has consistently vilified the military and law enforcement, thus contributing to an atmosphere where these attacks occur. The segment features a clip from President Trump, who calls the incident an act of evil and terror, supporting the FBI’s confirmation that the assault on the federal officers is being treated as a matter of national security. Authorities are currently investigating the shooter’s background and whether he was radicalized or supported by a larger network, especially as reports indicate he is not cooperating with police.
