Hold onto your hats, patriots, because the Biden administration has just pulled a move so outrageous it’ll make your blood boil. In a jaw-dropping display of weakness, they’ve cut a deal with the very terrorists who orchestrated the worst attack on American soil in our nation’s history. That’s right, folks – the masterminds behind 9/11 are getting off easy, and it’s got lawmakers and citizens alike up in arms. Buckle up as we dive into this national disgrace and uncover why this matters to every red-blooded American.
The Plea Deal: A Slap in the Face to 9/11 Victims
The Biden administration has reached a plea deal with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, and two of his accomplices. This deal spares them from the death penalty, a punishment many believe they rightfully deserve. The agreement comes after more than 16 years of prosecution and over two decades since that fateful September morning that changed America forever.
Republican Lawmakers Blast the Decision
Republican lawmakers have not minced words in their condemnation of this plea deal. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell led the charge, stating, “The plea deal with terrorists – including Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks that killed thousands of Americans – is a revolting abdication of the government’s responsibility to defend America and provide justice.”
“The Administration’s cowardice in the face of terror is a national disgrace.” – Mitch McConnell
New York representatives, whose constituents were directly impacted by the attacks, have been particularly vocal. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis expressed her outrage, declaring the deal “unacceptable” and a betrayal of the victims, their families, and the 9/11 heroes who continue to suffer from related illnesses.
The White House’s Weak Response
In a feeble attempt to distance President Biden from this controversial decision, the White House claimed that he was only recently informed of the plea agreement and had no role in the process. This hands-off approach has only fueled further criticism, with many questioning the leadership and decision-making within the administration.
“The Biden-Harris Administration’s weakness in the face of sworn enemies of the American people apparently knows no bounds” – Mitch McConnell
The Impact on 9/11 Families and Survivors
The plea deal has reopened wounds for many 9/11 families and survivors, who have waited over two decades for justice. Some have expressed frustration with the long-delayed legal proceedings, while others feel betrayed by the government’s decision to spare the terrorists from the ultimate punishment.
“I think people would be shocked if you could go back in time and tell the people who just watched the towers go down, ‘Oh, hey, in 23 years, these guys who are responsible for this crime we just witnessed are going to be getting plea deals so they can avoid death and serve life in prison,” – Michael Burke
The outrage isn’t limited to lawmakers and public figures. Ordinary Americans, particularly those directly affected by the 9/11 attacks, have voiced their dismay and disappointment with the Biden administration’s decision.

KJP was asked what is Joe Biden’s message to Americans furious that he gave the 9/11 mastermind a plea deal.
Her answer was basically: Deal with it.
