Rep. Bennie Thompson Calls Terrorist Attack that Killed National Guardsman in DC an “Unfortunate Accident”
Threatens Perjury Charges Against Kristi Noem for Blaming Joe Biden
Rep. Bennie Thompson described the horrific Thanksgiving Eve attack on National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, that killed one young National Guardswoman as an “unfortunate accident” during a disgusting line of questioning against Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Noem testified alongside National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent and FBI National Security Branch Operations Director Michael Glasheen before the House Homeland Security Committee on Thursday.
“Madam Secretary, you and the gentleman from NCTC referenced the unfortunate accident that occurred with the National Guardsmen being killed,” Thompson, the ranking Democrat on the committee, said. Noem responded, “You think that was an unfortunate accident? It was a terrorist attack.”
He later referred to the incident as “an unfortunate situation” before a back-and-forth ensued, and he wouldn’t even allow her to answer his questions.
Thompson showed his extremely low IQ before accusing Noem of perjury because he didn’t like her saying that Joe Biden allowed the alien who shot National Guardsmen into the country under Operation Allies Welcome following the failed 2021 Afghanistan Withdrawal.
Thompson then turned to Joe Kent, contemptuously stating, “It’s obvious you don’t want to answer the question. Mr. Kent, you want a shot at it?”
“The individual was vetted to serve as a soldier in Afghanistan, and that vetting standard was used by the Biden administration as a ruse to bring him here,” Kent said. “Had we followed the standard operating procedures for Special Immigrant Visas, that individual and none of the Allies Welcome people would have come to America. That’s on Joe Biden.”
But Thompson didn’t accept that answer either, stammering, “Just answer the question,” and Kent fired back, “That was the answer.”
