Biden Will Take Up Failed Obama Project to Shutter Guantanamo Bay
Western Journal ^ | February 12, 2021 | Western Journal via AP

President Joe Biden will seek to close the prison on the U.S. base at Guantanamo Bay, resuming a project begun under the Obama administration, the White House said Friday.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said it was the “intention” of the Biden administration to close the detention facility, something President Barack Obama pledged to do within a year of taking office in January 2009.

Psaki gave no timeline, telling reporters that a formal review would be “robust” and would require the participation of officials from the Department of Defense, the Justice Department and other agencies who have not yet been appointed under the new administration.

“There are many players from different agencies who need to be part of this policy discussion about the steps forward,” she said.

To be fair, both Nobama and Trump just drone-assassinated the newer Mozzie terrorists anyway. I assume even our Newly Woke military will retain the basic capabilities to do the same. But ultimately Xiden will face the same problem as Nobama which is how do you put the pre-2008 Mozzie terrorists in our corrupt criminal justice system.

You mean Biden Will Wake Up . . . He isn't doing anything but eating pudding in that big white nursing home (our White House) that he's in.

Just like Nobama had Valerie Jarrett doing ALL of his work for 8 years, this simple old man is letting AOC and company do everything.

FOUR YEARS, HUH?

It’s a dead-end street tour, and just for theatrical games.

Once you open this up and say that the whole operation will shut down, and you want various countries to take back 50-percent of the Gitmo ‘team’....no one in the Middle East will agree to that.

Then you go and suggest some prison installation in the US will be prepared to receive the prisoners and civilian guards will take the place of US military personnel....that will quickly get some states into a panic because they don’t want the mess in their state.

If I remember right....Illinois was the last suggested delivery point, and folks got pretty hyped-up in a matter of a week or two over that suggestion.

Every single effort that was expended in the Obama period, failed. I expect the same to occur this time...except it’ll take three years for them to discuss this and find no adequate answer. In ten years, it’ll happen again and lead to no solution.

Who's saying that Valerie Jarrett isn't doing all of Joe's heavy work now? AOC and company have to appeal to their voters and media. Valerie doesn't have to deal with any of that. Anyone can still make fun of AOC and company and keep their jobs(except their own staffers). Roseanne lost her job when Trump was in office and both Senate and House were run by Republicans. That's power.
