(Nov 28): US President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that “immigration policy has eroded” national progress and that he would “permanently pause migration from all third world countries to allow the US system to fully recover”.

The announcement, at the end of a pair of posts late on Thursday night in Washington, follow an attack on two National Guard members in the capital earlier by an Afghan national. Trump has used the assault to amplify his administration’s anti-immigration policies.
