Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, a 20-year-old soldier from Summersville, West Virginia, has been murdered, her life stolen in a brutal attack allegedly carried out by an Afghan national who entered the United States during the chaotic 2021 evacuation. This young American hero, who volunteered to serve her country, is now dead because Biden-era open-border policies airlifted more than 160,000 unvetted individuals from one of the most terror-rich regions on earth and scattered them across small-town America with zero meaningful screening. What happened to SPC Beckstrom is not an isolated tragedy; it is the predictable, bloody consequence of importing military-age males from cultures that celebrate violence against women and contempt for Western life. Her blood stains the hands of every politician, activist, and bureaucrat who screamed “compassion” while deliberately endangering American citizens.
The suspect, already charged with capital murder charges on the table, must never see the inside of a civilian courtroom in Washington, D.C., where anti-military, anti-American juries would treat him like a victim of “trauma” and “Islamophobia.” He entered this country under a wartime evacuation, was paroled in by the Department of Defense, and then allegedly killed an American soldier. That makes him an enemy combatant, full stop. He should face a military tribunal under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, receive a swift and transparent trial, and, upon conviction, be publicly executed, pouring salt on the wound of every jihadist watching from Kabul to Kandahar. Anything less is a surrender of justice and a message that American lives are cheap.
Jeanine Pirro spoke for millions when she erupted on air: “You idiots on the Left flew in 160,000 unvetted Afghans and third-world trash, and now a 20-year-old American hero is dead because of it. Her blood is on your hands, every single one of you open-border lunatics!” She’s right, and the rage is righteous. No mercy, no excuses, no more lectures about “diversity” while flag-draped coffins come home. Sarah Beckstrom swore an oath to defend this nation; the nation now owes her justice, vengeance, and the promise that the policies that killed her will be ripped out root and branch before another mother buries her child.
