The horrific shooting at Old Dominion University has exposed a catastrophic failure of our immigration system that could have been prevented if common-sense denaturalization laws were already in place.
Mohamed Bailor Jalloh, a naturalized citizen from Sierra Leone, opened fire on innocent students while screaming 'Allahu Akhbar' before being heroically subdued by Army ROTC cadets. But here's the kicker - this terrorist sympathizer should have NEVER been in America to begin with.
Back in 2015, Jalloh traveled to Africa and made contact with ISIS operatives in Nigeria. He was caught red-handed providing material support to ISIS after communicating with what he thought was a fellow terrorist - who was actually an FBI informant. He was convicted and sentenced to 11 years in federal prison.
So why was this ISIS supporter still walking American streets instead of being shipped back to Sierra Leone?
🚨 BREAKING: The FBI says Old Dominion University shooter Mohamed Jalloh screamed 'ALLAHU AKHBAR' when opening fire on students today. Jalloh was subdued by HEROIC Army ROTC cadets. Yet ANOTHER 'naturalized citizen' who NEVER SHOULD'VE BEEN HERE ESPECIALLY after supporting ISIS
Social media users are rightfully outraged, and this case perfectly illustrates why President Trump's denaturalization agenda is so critical for American safety.
Trump Administration Must Act NOW
Under the Trump-Vance administration's America First policies, cases like Jalloh's should be fast-tracked for denaturalization and immediate deportation. When someone commits acts of terrorism or supports terrorist organizations, their citizenship should be REVOKED - period.
The fact that this ISIS sympathizer was allowed to remain in America after his conviction is a testament to the failed policies of previous administrations. How many more American students need to be put in danger because we refuse to deport convicted terrorists?
Patriots, this is exactly why we voted for Trump's tough immigration stance. Every day we delay implementing robust denaturalization procedures is another day dangerous foreign nationals can harm innocent Americans.
