These agreements were previously nullified by Secretary Austin who is granted the authority to do so as the leader of his department, under the Military Commission Act of 2009, and the military’s Manual for Military Commissions. Failing to hold these terrorists accountable for their crimes against humanity is forcing the families of those who lost their lives on that fateful day or in the war on terror, and the first responders still suffering and dying from 9/11-related illnesses, to relive the physical and emotional trauma they endured 23 years ago. President Biden must immediately step in, schedule a trial and swiftly put these monsters to death. If not, it’s my hope the incoming Trump Administration, which previously set a trial date, will deliver the long overdue justice that these families deserve.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:07:06Z |
