Summary

In this episode of the Sean Hannity Show, Sean delves into the troubling issue of unvetted Afghan refugees and the security risks they may pose to the United States. Joined by Oklahoma Senator James Lankford, they discuss the lack of transparency from the Department of Homeland Security regarding the evacuation and vetting processes during the Afghanistan withdrawal. With thousands of individuals flagged for security concerns still untracked, Sean and Senator Lankford highlight the implications of these oversights and the ongoing national security threats the nation faces. Tune in for a critical assessment of immigration policies and the importance of vetting those entering the U.S.
