Trump news at a glance: president says freeze on asylum decisions will last ’a long time’NEWS | 01 December 2025US President Donald Trump has said his administration intends to maintain a pause on asylum decisions for “a long time”, after an Afghan national allegedly shot two National Guard members near the White House, killing one of them.
When asked to specify how long it would last, Trump said he had “no time limit” in mind for the measure, which the Department of Homeland Security says is linked to a list of 19 countries already facing US travel restrictions.
“We don’t want those people,” Trump continued. “You know why we don’t want them? Because many have been no good, and they shouldn’t be in our country.”
