Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, was employed by the CIA as a security guard and arrested on Tuesday along with an unnamed minor.
President Joe Biden‘s administration must reveal if there are more suspected terrorists living within the U.S. after an Afghan migrant’s Election Day plot was foiled, a top Republican is demanding.
Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, who was employed by the CIA as a security guard, was arrested on Tuesday along with an unnamed minor.
Tawhedi was brought to the U.S. days after the Biden-Harris administration’s deadly military withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 through a rushed Special Immigration Visa (SIV) process.
He is accused of ‘conspiring’ and ‘attempting to provide material support to ISIS.’
The would-be killer also allegedly obtained guns and ammunition to ‘conduct a violent attack on U.S. soil in the name of ISIS’ on a large gathering of Americans on November 5.
Even more shockingly, sources familiar with the investigation say Tawhedi worked as a security guard for the CIA while in Afghanistan.
It is unclear whether he was radicalized by ISIS in Afghanistan or after he fled to the U.S. with his family.
Now, House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., is demanding answers from Biden’s top officials.
He is probing FBI Director Christopher Wray and Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas, on how this ISIS-inspired terrorist was allowed in.
‘These recent arrests raise serious concerns about the ongoing threat that ISIS and its fanatical supporters pose to U.S. national security, as well as the shortfall in the Biden-Harris administration’s screening and vetting capabilities,’ Green wrote to the FBI and DHS chiefs in a letter exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com.
‘The Committee also remains concerned about the threat of a ‘lone wolf’ actor or multiple actors attempting to commit a terrorist attack on U.S. soil.’
‘While the Committee commends law enforcement efforts to foil this alleged ISIS-inspired terrorist plot on Election Day, the Committee finds it unacceptable that the Biden-Harris administration is precariously failing to take measures to safeguard U.S. national security by allowing alleged terrorists into the interior of the United States to plot terrorist attacks.’
Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump also skewered Kamala Harris for her role in the immigration policies during a rally Wednesday.
‘Just yesterday, it was reported that Kamala Harris brought in a totally unvetted refugee from Afghanistan, who has now been arrested for plotting an ISIS terrorist attack in the United States during our election,’ he said.
‘Kamala completely abandoned her duty to law-abiding Americans, and spent the last four years importing criminals, unvetted refugees, and terrorists into our country,’ he said.
Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson also slammed the White House earlier this week when the arrest was announced.
‘Following the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, more than 77K Afghans were given humanitarian parole, with little to no vetting and no intent to know their whereabouts.’
‘Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi -the terrorist plotting an election day attack – was one of them.’
‘Whether it’s their open border policies or failed foreign policy, this administration continues to risk American lives by allowing terrorists, murders, rapists, and other violent criminals into our homeland.’

Mayorkas refuses to answer for Biden-Harris admin’s allowing Afghan national charged with plotting Election Day terror attack entry to US
The photo of alleged terrorist Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi has been released after the he was charged with planning a terrorist attack on Election Day. When pressed, Biden-Harris Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas did not have an answer for why the admin allowed the Afghan immigrant with apparently terrorist leanings into the country.
This week, FBI agents arrested Tawhedi, 27, of Oklahoma City, OK after an investigation into the Afghan man discovered that he was stockpiling automatic weapons in order plan a terrorist attack on Election Day. It was also discovered that Tawhedi was paroled into the United States by DHS. His photo has been released, as reported by KOCO. On Thursday, a reporter pressed Mayorkas on about the alleged terrorist coming into the country.
“How was this man brought into the US? What screening did he undergo? What did he apply for to get here?” a reporter asked Mayorkas.
Mayorkas declined to answer the question, saying that it was not the right setting to do so, and spoke about the crisis of Hurricane Milton, “I’m here in North Carolina, communicating with the individuals who are still conducting search and rescue operations, over 200 people have lost their lives in hurricane Helene. We have reports that at least 10 individuals have lost their lives as a result of Hurricane Milton. I’d be very pleased to answer your question in a different setting, but we’re here to talk about emergencies and the support that we can deliver to people in desperate need.”
The White House, when asked about Tawhedi, declined to comment on the specific case, but said that every Afghan National is screened and vetted when they enter the US.
A statement from the FBI on Tuesday read, “According to a criminal complaint filed today, Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, conspired and attempted to provide material support to ISIS and obtained firearms and ammunition to conduct a violent attack on U.S. soil in the name of ISIS. As part of the plot, the defendant allegedly took steps to liquidate his family’s assets, resettle members of his family overseas, acquire AK-47 assault rifles and ammunition, and commit a terrorist attack in the United States.”
