After the Colorado firebomb attack that injured 12, President Trump blamed the previous administration's immigration policies for allowing the entry of Egyptian national Mohamed Sabry Soliman. High-ranking officials, including Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem, framed the incident as justification for mass deportation. However, Soliman's immigration situation is more nuanced than presented, as he arrived on a visa issued during Trump's term and his status involves the lengthy asylum process. Trump's subsequent travel ban announcement highlighted concerns over vetting foreign nationals, yet Egypt was notably excluded from the list.
Trump's administration turned the Colorado firebomb attack into a rallying cry for their mass-deportation agenda, framing it as another example of threats from immigration policies.
Labeling Soliman an 'illegal alien' oversimplified his complex immigration status within a system where asylum applicants often wait years for decisions.
