VP JD Vance Slams 'Dumbest' U.S. Immigration Policy, Cites Afghan National's Terror Plot
Jan 26, 2025, 04:19 PM
Vice President JD Vance has criticized the current U.S. immigration policy during an interview on CBS, asserting that the country's founding by immigrants does not justify having what he called 'the dumbest immigration policy in the world' 240 years later. Vance challenged the vetting process for immigrants, referencing an Afghan national in Oklahoma charged with planning a terrorist attack on behalf of the Islamic State, questioning the effectiveness of the vetting system. CBS journalist Margaret Brennan defended the vetting process, but Vance countered by expressing his opposition to allowing individuals into the country who might pose a threat, regardless of when they were radicalized.
