The suspect in Wednesday's shooting of two West Virginia National Guard troops is an Afghan national who entered the U.S. in 2021 after working with the CIA and other U.S. government agencies during the war, CIA Director John Ratcliffe tells Axios in a statement.
The big picture: After the withdrawal from Afghanistan, "the Biden Administration justified bringing the alleged shooter to the United States in September 2021 due to his prior work with the U.S. Government, including CIA, as a member of a partner force in Kandahar," Ratcliffe said.
