EXCLUSIVETop lawmaker demands Biden reveal if other terrorists have been let in the U.S. after Afghans deadly Election Day plot

President Joe Bidens administration must reveal if there are more suspected terrorists living within the U.S. after an Afghan migrants Election Day plot was foiled, a top Republican is demanding.

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, who was employed by the CIA as a security guard, was arrested on Tuesday along with an unnamed minor.

Tawhedi was brought to the U.S. days after the Biden-Harris administrations deadly military withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 through a rushed Special Immigration Visa (SIV) process. 

He is accused of conspiring and attempting to provide material support to ISIS.

The would-be killer also allegedly obtained guns and ammunition to conduct a violent attack on U.S. soil in the name of ISIS on a large gathering of Americans on November 5.

Even more shockingly, sources familiar with the investigation say Tawhedi worked as a security guard for the CIA while in Afghanistan.

It is unclear whether he was radicalized by ISIS in Afghanistan or after he fled to the U.S. with his family.

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, told investigators after his arrest Monday that he had planned his attack to coincide with Election Day next month

Now, House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., is demanding answers from Bidens top officials.

He is probing FBI Director Christopher Wray and Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas, on how this ISIS-inspired terrorist was allowed in.

These recent arrests raise serious concerns about the ongoing threat that ISIS and its fanatical supporters pose to U.S. national security, as well as the shortfall in the Biden-Harris administrations screening and vetting capabilities, Green wrote to the FBI and DHS chiefs in a letter exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com. 

The Committee also remains concerned about the threat of a lone wolf actor or multiple actors attempting to commit a terrorist attack on U.S. soil.

While the Committee commends law enforcement efforts to foil this alleged ISIS-inspired terrorist plot on Election Day, the Committee finds it unacceptable that the Biden-Harris administration is precariously failing to take measures to safeguard U.S. national security by allowing alleged terrorists into the interior of the United States to plot terrorist attacks.

Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump also skewered Kamala Harris for her role in the immigration policies during a rally Wednesday. 

Just yesterday, it was reported that Kamala Harris brought in a totally unvetted refugee from Afghanistan, who has now been arrested for plotting an ISIS terrorist attack in the United States during our election, he said.

Kamala completely abandoned her duty to law-abiding Americans, and spent the last four years importing criminals, unvetted refugees, and terrorists into our country, he said.

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson also slammed the White House earlier this week when the arrest was announced. 

Following the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, more than 77K Afghans were given humanitarian parole, with little to no vetting and no intent to know their whereabouts. 

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi -the terrorist plotting an election day attack - was one of them.

Whether it’s their open border policies or failed foreign policy, this administration continues to risk American lives by allowing terrorists, murders, rapists, and other violent criminals into our homeland.

Tawhedi, who entered the U.S. in 2021 on a special immigrant visa, had taken steps in recent weeks to advance his attack plans, including by ordering AK-47 rifles

Tawhedi was charged with conspiring and attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State group, which is designated by the U.S. as a foreign terrorist organization

Texas Republican Rep. Michael Cloud posted online: Under Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas’ watch, an Afghan national with ties to ISIS and who was plotting a terrorist attack was let into our country.

This is what happens when Democrats prioritize open borders over American safety.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., similarly wrote on X: An Afghan national, let into our country after the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, was arrested yesterday for plotting an Election Day terror attack on behalf of ISIS. 

Without a doubt our nation is vulnerable to threats because of the Biden-Harris administration.

The Tennessee Republicans letter also details the arrests earlier this year of several other migrants from Tajikistan who were living across the U.S. before being arrested after illegally crossing the border. 

These eight men lived in Los Angeles, New York and Philadelphia and were arrested in June after it came to light they too had ties to ISIS.  

So far only three of the eight ISIS-connected migrants have been deported. Four are currently in ICE facilities awaiting flights and one is still awaiting legal proceedings, CBS News reports. 

The Afghan and his accomplices plot to purchase automatic assault riffles, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and several magazines was stopped after authorities broke up the deal.

Tawhedi was charged with conspiring and attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State group, which is designated by the U.S. as a foreign terrorist organization.

He faces a maximum prison sentence of 20 years for providing support to ISIS and 15 years for obtaining a firearm to commit a felony or a federal crime of terrorism.

Green requested that Wray and Mayorkas turn over the documents relating to Tawhedi by October 23.
