A George Soros-linked organization is allegedly responsible for funding housing for the Afghan refugee responsible for this Wednesday’s terror attack in D.C. against National Guardsmen.
The shooter in Wednesday’s attack has been identified as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan refuge who entered the U.S. after the Biden administration’s catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
According to The New York Times, Lakanwal lives in Bellingham, Washington, where at one point he and his family had been renting a property from a woman named Kristina Widman.
“Widman said in an interview that the rental had been set up through World Relief, an organization that helps resettle refugees, and that she had had limited contact with the family,” the Times notes. “They have not lived in the property for over a year, she said.”
Here’s where things get interesting, because according to the Capstone Report, World Relief is linked directly to Soros.
World Relief was linked with George Soros pro-immigration groups and funded groups attempting to change how Evangelical Christians think about the subject. World Relief worked with the National Immigration Forum and Baptist Press to promote open borders.

In 2019, the Capstone Report ran a report about a women’s group called WELCOME that promoted “evangelical involvement in immigration.”
“Its website is welcomeimmigrants.org,” the report read. “That website’s Internet Registry information shows World Relief as its administrative contact, and an email contact address with the National Immigration Forum.”
And according to the Capstone Report, the National immigration Forum was founded by none other than Soros, a billionaire leftist with a penchant for using his large swaths of money to interfere in American politics and culture in a decidedly negative way.
Moreover, the COO of World Relief reportedly began his bureaucratic career at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), a corrupt agency that has since been reduced to almost nothing by the Trump administration.

All this comes months after Small Business Administration (SBA) administrator Kelly Loeffler launched an audit of all government contracting officers after a then-recent USAID scandal.
USAID contracting officer Roderick Watson, 57, agreed in 2013 to accept bribes in exchange for using his position and power to award contracts to the companies Apprio and Vistant. In June, Watson pleaded guilty to bribery and securities fraud.

Loeffler responded to the scandal by reportedly penning a letter reviewed by Fox News noting that what happened is a “damning reflection of systemic failures in oversight and accountability” and warning that it “was not an isolated incident.”
She also instructed SBA Associate Administrator Tre Pennie, who reportedly oversees the contracts awarded by the agency, to “act decisively” to crack down on any similar abuses and launch an audit of all contracting officers dating back to 2010.
“The role of federal government contracting officers is not ceremonial or self-dealing; rather, it is a position of immense authority and fiduciary responsibility,” Loeffler wrote. “The contracting process must be transparent and built on merit, not personal gain.”
She also reportedly wrote that the Watson scandal “represents a collapse in the very safeguards that are supposed to protect American taxpayer dollars and ensure fair access for legitimate small businesses.”
She went on to specifically slam the administration of former President Joe Biden for ultimately awarding contracts to Apprio and Vistant.
“The fact that a federal official was able to act as the linchpin of a persistent, large-scale fraud operation speaks to a failure in internal controls and a breakdown in the contracting environment that demands immediate correction,” she argued.
DOJ uncovered a MASSIVE $550M fraud and bribery scheme at USAID – involving contracts to help the government identify “root causes of irregular migration from Central America.”

According to Fox News, Loeffler stressed that the SBA plays a “critical role” in federal contracting and “will no longer stand by while abuses are perpetrated at the expense of taxpayers and deserving small businesses.”
