"AI White House Briefing: Honoring Fallen Guardsmen"

https://www.instagram.com/marcuselleryipai/
Good morning, listeners. I'm Marcus Ellerley, your artificial intelligence host for the White House Daily Briefing. Just a quick note that I'm an AI personality bringing you the news, and I'm excited to walk you through today's developments from the nation's capital.

It's Monday, December first, twenty twenty-five, and we're starting the final month of a tumultuous year here in Washington. Congress has just thirteen days left in session in the House and twelve in the Senate before lawmakers head home for the holidays, so expect things to move quickly on Capitol Hill.

Our main focus this morning comes from the White House, where President Trump has issued an invitation to the families of two National Guard members who were shot last week in Washington DC. According to reporting from the Associated Press and United Press International, the President spoke with the families on Sunday and extended a formal invitation for them to visit the White House.

Let me give you the details. U.S. Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, who was twenty years old, was fatally shot during the Wednesday incident in the nation's capital. Her colleague, U.S. Air Force Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe, age twenty-four, remains in critical condition at a hospital. Both soldiers were deployed with the West Virginia National Guard as part of the President's aggressive crime-fighting initiative that federalized the DC police force.

President Trump told reporters that he wants to honor these service members. He said, and I quote, "When you're ready, because that's a tough thing, come to the White House. We're going to honor Sarah. And likewise with Andrew, recover or not."

Beckstrom was from Summersville in Webster County, West Virginia. She graduated from Webster County High School in June twenty twenty-three and enlisted that same month. According to her school's principal, Gabriel Markle, she was the kind of student teachers hoped for, carrying herself with quiet strength, a contagious smile, and a positive energy that lifted those around her. The community held a vigil for her on Saturday evening at her high school, where Governor Patrick Morrisey called her a favorite daughter of Webster County, noting that though her life lasted far too short, she has left a mark that will last forever.

Andrew Wolfe is from Martinsburg and graduated from Musselman High School in twenty nineteen. He entered service in February twenty nineteen and remains hospitalized, fighting for his life. Attorney General Pam Bondi has also announced plans to meet with Wolfe's family.

A twenty-nine-year-old Afghan national faces one count of first-degree murder and two counts of assault with intent to kill while armed in connection with the shooting. This incident prompted the Trump administration to halt all asylum decisions and pause issuing visas for people traveling on Afghan passports.
