President Trump extends White House invitation to family of fallen National Guard member, Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, who was tragically shot and killed in Washington D.C. last week. The President also mentioned discussing a White House visit for both families from the West Virginia National Guard when they are ready. Meanwhile, local vigils have been held in West Virginia to honor the soldiers, with Sarah Beckstrom being described as a student with quiet strength, a contagious smile, and a positive energy. A twenty-nine-year-old Afghan national faces charges including first-degree murder in connection with the shooting, prompting the Trump administration to halt all asylum decisions and pause issuing visas for people traveling on Afghan passports. Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe, who was also injured in the shooting, remains in critical condition and is fighting for his life.
