Biden to mark 20th anniversary of 9/11 at 3 memorial sites

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden will visit all three 9/11 memorial sites to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks and pay his respects to the nearly 3,000 people killed that day.

Biden will visit ground zero in New York City, the Pentagon and the memorial outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where United Flight 93 was forced down, the White House said Saturday.

Vice President Kamala Harris will travel to Shanksville, Pennsylvania, for a separate event before joining the president at the Pentagon, the White House said.

Biden's itinerary is similar to the one President Barack Obama followed in 2011 on the 10th anniversary of the attacks. Obama's visit to New York City coincided with the opening of memorial at the site where the iconic World Trade Center towers once stood.

Next Saturday's anniversary falls less than two weeks after the end of the nearly two-decade-long U.S. war in Afghanistan. The war was launched weeks after the 9/11 attacks to retaliate against the al-Qaida plotters and the Taliban, who provided them safe haven.

Biden has found support from the public for ending the conflict but has faced sharp criticism, even from allies, for the chaotic evacuation of U.S. troops and allied Afghans during the final two weeks of August.

Biden on Friday directed the declassification of certain documents related to the Sept. 11 attacks in a gesture toward victims' families who have long sought the records in hopes of implicating the Saudi government.

The conflict between the government and the families over what classified information could be made public came into the open last month after many relatives, survivors and first responders said they would object to Biden’s participation in 9/11 memorial events if the documents remained classified.

Millions of Americans should show up at these places in protest, and demand, peacefully, that the Democrat Party impeach or force both Biden and Harris to resign that day!!! End of Story...Case closed!!!

Since he just called for releasing 9/11 documents, he somehow thinks this will make him look good and Bush very negative.

Hopefully those attending will turn their backs toward him when he tries to talk.

I’m avoiding all mention or media on 9/11 this year.

Going to a great antique show that day. Too bad.

He is not wanted in NYC, according to grieving families.

What about the 8-month anniversary of 1/6, isn’t that a much bigger deal?

I’m going to Somerset tomorrow, and to the flight 93 memorial. I’m from Somerset and know for a fact that the memorial is closed to the public on 9/11 due to “safety risk”

These memorials were supposed to be a monument to how resilient we are, and that we won’t be intimidated.

Missed that mark I guess.

Everything about Biden is closed to American patriots. Only the deep state and the DNC wing in the media and the one world order oligarchs are welcome.

Saw a video today of the senile pervert’s motorcade driving past a bunch of linemen in Louisiana. They all turned their back.

I hope they start a trend.

September 11 20/16 was one of the most important dates in history of the United States of America

At that event New York City for one Donald J Trump Republican presidential candidate for the United States of America and Hillary Rodham Clinton the Democratic candidate for president of the United States of America

All that will ever be remembered of that day is that famous video where she and her Coke bottle blue glasses was starting to pass out security detail were trying to hide it and she was thrown into a limo like a sack of potatoes

I imagine the karma of that day was overwhelming to her ; her and her husband billy Jeff. being such corrupt and immoral and evil people

I think her karma overwhelmed her that day and that’s what made her fall ill and pass out

The most important thing was it for all the world to see that video I don’t understand how fragile and weak of a person she was it was devastating absolutely devastating to her campaign

And why is that important? It was one of many reasons that gave us the wonderful the excellent the best president we’ve ever had Donald J Trump

Thank you— will find it. The “gift that keeps on giving” is that one of the Taliban (which is in fact al qaeda, there is no difference even tribal) leaders prior to the “skeedaddle” from Afghan... was released from GITMO having been part of the network of 9-11 terrorists.
