Trump blames attack on Biden's ridiculous open border policy' as Miller says attack committed by illegal alien'

The immigration status of the man who allegedly attacked people with a makeshift flamethrower and other incendiary devices at an event for Israeli hostages in Boulder, Colorado, has become further fodder for the Trump administration's deportation agenda.

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old who came to the US in 2022 from Egypt and overstayed his initial tourist visa, according to the US government, allegedly planned his attack on the event specifically to target Zionists, federal authorities said. He shouted Free Palestine" while carrying out the attack, which the FBI has called an act of terrorism", and he was charged on Monday with a federal hate crime.
