Just as Americans are still reeling from the Thanksgiving Eve ambush of two West Virginia National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C.—an attack carried out by an Afghan national who never should’ve been in this country—we now have confirmation from the Department of Homeland Security that yet another Afghan brought in under Biden’s disastrous Operation Allies Welcome has been arrested.
This time, the suspect was picked up last week after making terroristic threats on TikTok.
Another preventable threat. Another vetting failure. Another reminder that Biden’s reckless mass-entry policies didn’t just open the door—they kicked it off the hinges.
In fact, the Texas arrest happened just one day before Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, gunned down National Guardsmen Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe outside D.C.’s Farragut West Metro station—a brutal attack that killed Beckstrom and left Wolfe fighting for his life.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin released new details Saturday afternoon, revealing that Mohammad Dawood Alokozay was arrested last Tuesday after posting a TikTok video “indicating he was building a bomb with an intended target of the Fort Worth area.”
Just one day before the Terrorist attack against our @NationalGuard, another Afghan national who was paroled into the United States under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome was arrested for threatening to blow up a building in Fort Worth.

Mohammad Dawood Alokozay posted a video of himself on TikTok indicating he was building a bomb with an intended target of the Fort Worth area. He was arrested on Tuesday by the Texas Department of Public Safety and FBI JTTF and charged with making Terroristic Threats.
@ICEgov has lodged a detainer.
Information regarding Mohammad Dawood Alokozay, the suspect from Texas, is currently limited, but it is known that he arrived in the United States on September 7, 2022, and has been designated as a “lawful permanent resident.” He entered the country through the same program that also allowed Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the terrorism suspect from Washington, to come to the United States under the Biden administration.
Operation Allies Welcome was launched by then-President Biden on August 29, 2021, just days after the botched withdrawal of U.S. forces out of Afghanistan, “to support vulnerable Afghans, including those who worked alongside us in Afghanistan for the past two decades, as they safely resettle in the United States.”
Shortly after launching the operation, Biden told the nation, “As for the Afghans, we and our partners have airlifted 100,000 of them. We will continue to work to help more people leave the country who are at risk. And we’re far from done.” Approximately 200,000 Afghan nationals are believed to have been resettled in the U.S. through this initiative and another temporary program known as Operation Enduring Welcome.
Several of us on the right have consistently raised concerns about the scrutiny involved in the process of allowing these individuals to enter the country. Following the shootings involving the Guardsmen, President Trump has suspended all immigration from developing nations.
