DC Shooter Worked for US Government

from CNN Inside Politics · host CNN Podcasts

We begin today's special Thanksgiving Day show with new developments on the man accused of gunning down two young National Guard members in the nation's capital. The CIA revealed that the 29-year-old Afghan national actually worked with the US government during the war. He was resettled in the US after that chaotic withdrawal four years ago, part of a program to protect those who helped Americans from Taliban retribution. Now, prosecutors say he was living in Washington state and allegedly drove across the country to carry out the attack.    Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
