Would a President Joe Biden order a new scrubbing of Muslim terrorist intel collected during the Trump years?
In June 2009, then-president Barack Obama gave a celebrated speech in Cairo, calling for a "new beginning" between the United States and Muslims around the world. Following up on that speech, and under the rubrics of "privacy" and "civil rights, he issued a 2009 directive to the Department of Homeland Security instructing it to scrub its files of intel on persons associated with a groups that were suspected or even known to be terrorist organizations, but which groups were not themselves on an existing watch list. (Under the directive, in other words, the decision to watch-list new suspects became based in part not on current facts or intel, but on a prior bureaucratic designation.)
As then–DHS agent, Philip Haney, later described the significance of the directive in the opening pages his book, See Something, Say Nothing:
I was ordered to remove information from more than eight hundred records concerning individuals associated with Muslim Brotherhood front groups in the United States

Haney did none of these things, for, on Feb. 21, he was murdered in a park-and-ride parking lot.
By whom? Because of his prior book and his Senate testimony; because he had been an outstanding, if not irreplaceable DHS agent; and because he was planning to publish a second book, the most likely suspects by far — those with the clearest and strongest motive, and those for whom such a murder would hardly be out of character, would be Islamic terrorists.
