WAVY TV 10 reported that Hagos is from “an area of Africa near the Yemen border” and had previously lived in Haiti. Prior to coming to North Carolina, he lived in the sanctuary state of California. ...

Karine Jean-Pierre is asked about a letter sent to Biden regarding Awet Hagos, an illegal alien on the terror watchlist who was arrested in North Carolina last week.
