GOP Tears Into Biden Over Potential Deal to Spare 9/11 Plotters From Death Penalty
Newsmax ^ | 9/13/22 | Jack Gournell

Republicans are criticizing President Joe Biden over a plan to offer plea deals to the 9/11 plotters — including admitted mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed — to avoid the death penalty.

Talks between prosecutors and defense attorneys for Mohammed and his four co-defendants at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where they have been held for two decades awaiting trial, could end up prohibiting prosecutors from seeking the death penalty, the Washington Examiner reports.

"Joe Biden's allies are negotiating lesser sentences for 9/11 attackers," tweeted Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee. "If they won't punish terrorists, how can we trust them to lock up criminals in your neighborhood?"

This is the DemocRat party in a nutshell. Kill the innocent unborn but go easy on the 911 terrorists who murdered 2,700 people.

I wish Biden could muster a sympathy for the 1/6 martyrs rotting away in the DC gulag.

Oh wow!

I didn’t know the GOP was still around. Glad they finally found something that they care enough about to speak up.

LOL

typical Demcrats aiding our enemies and sticking it to Republican Jan 6th protestors.

Carter pardoned terrorists that set off bomb inside capital

Clinton pardoned terrorists that actually shot several congressman inside the US Capital.

And now Biden will offer grace to the 9-11 terrorists (which I can’t believe are STILL alive!)

But Jan 6th Republicans... no mercy!!!

We have GOT to throw Democrats out of power in November.

This idiocy goes back through Democrat and Republican administrations alike.

To be fair, the whole thing became a fiasco the moment these mutants were taken into U.S. custody. The fact that these guys have been “awaiting trial” for TWENTY YEARS ought to be a big clue. They’ve been sitting in Gitmo for 20 years because the government that apprehended them can’t figure out what court of law can even hear a case against them.

Another “Republicans Pounce” story. The issue is GOP criticism of Biden, not that his policies are stupid and malignant.

OK GOP ... what have you done to support executing these enemy combatants during the years after 9/11?

I always thought it was very convenient for Hillary that Barbara Olsen died in the Pentagon plane.

Throw them out of power? They’re not even supposed to be “in” power. What makes anyone think they won’t just keep stealing elections? I don’t get it. It’s like deep denial going on.

Do we really have a chance to regain control of Congress? I’d love to think so...but the other side of my mind (the harsh reality side) says no way will they give up what they’ve already seized. That’s just now how radical leftists roll.
