Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen criticized the Biden administration on Meet the Press, citing the suspect in the shooting of two National Guard members who arrived in the U.S. through Operation Allies Welcome. Nielsen argued the incident highlights flaws in the program, which resettled Afghans after the Taliban takeover of Kabul in 2021. She implied the vetting process was insufficient, leading to potentially dangerous individuals being admitted into the country. Her criticism suggests the administration prioritized speed in evacuating Afghans over thorough security checks.
