                  ATTACK ON TWO NATIONAL GUARD MEMBERS

  (Mr. DOGGETT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. DOGGETT. Mr. Speaker, we all mourn the loss from the tragic 
attack on two National Guard members here in Washington last week. Yet, 
once again, the master of distraction seeks to avoid any accountability 
for his role in this tragedy. Only 7 months earlier, the Trump 
administration granted asylum to the assassin.
  Big unanswered questions for the President: What specific vetting was 
done with regard to the 3 years that this assassin lived here in 
America? Was his post-traumatic stress from his prior violent work 
considered? Was the caseworker who reported his possible radicalization 
interviewed and reviewed? Was his inability to even get a job a factor? 
Did this review include biometric information, checking social media 
platforms, and other steps?
  Instead of blaming all immigrants and blaming Biden, how about just 
looking in the mirror and figuring out what went wrong here in this 
regime and how to fix it in order to avoid another tragedy? Americans 
deserve accountability and answers.
