US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced the suspension of the DV1 program, «to ensure that no American suffers again from this catastrophic program.»

«Brown University shooter Claudio Manuel Neves Valente entered the United States on an immigrant visa under the Diversity Visa Lottery (DV1) program in 2017 and obtained a green card. This horrific individual should never have been allowed into our country.

In 2017, President Trump sought to terminate this program after a devastating truck attack in New York City by an ISIS terrorist who entered the country under the DV1 program and killed eight people», Kristi Noem wrote.

On Saturday, December 13, a man opened fire on students at the Brown University campus in Providence during exam preparations. Two people were killed, and nine others were injured.

On December 18, the body of the shooter, 48-year-old Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, was found. He is also linked to the murder of a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor.

The Green Card lottery annually awards about 50,000 immigrant visas (DV1). Lottery winners can enter the United States and obtain a physical green card. Most of those who enter remain in the US and later obtain citizenship.

    типичное поведение имбе**ла..
    заехало по программе несколько миллионов, убили кого-то двое или пусть даже 10 из них, значит закрыть всю программу...
    не говорите этому идиоту, что ножами из магазина тоже убивают людей.. а то американцам в итоге придется хлеб не резать и ломать руками.
    и да, машины тоже наезжают на людей.. тоже не говорите, а то будут ходить пешком.

    старый литвин,

    Не машыны забіваюць людзей, а людзі
    Людзі павінны асімілявацца ў культуру прымаючай краіны, альбо з'яджаць

    І еўрапейская статыстка з краін, дзе гэта не сакрэт дзеля "стабільнасці", як Данія, Нідэрланды і Швецыя, паказвае, што прадстаўнікі пэўных культур абсалютна несумяшчальны з нашым грамадствам, бо робяць злачынстваў у 9-10-12 больш разоў за еўрапейцаў, 70-80% не працуе і не плануе набываць прафесію, але ж увесь час пратэстуюць і патрабуюць больш датацый, якую ўспрымаюць як даніну, бо лічаць сабе богаабранымі.
