    Post 9/11 families tell Biden to release classified documents or don't come to memorial events

    Next test of Prez Biden... would he deliver what last 3 Prez could not?

    Chances not very high but won't be too surprised to see partial release of some sort. Prez Biden recently in a stunning alpha move reportedly played key role in take down of one of the notorious tools of war lobbies who was seen as pawn of so called "powerful Israel lobby" and had been accused of numerous war crimes against people of mideast.

    Such a move carries risk of deterioration of historically fruitful US relationship with Saudi dictatorship. Prez Biden or his team members do not seem to have the kind of "bromance" with MBS that some Trump administration advisers seemed to have.
    Another potential risk could be rise of anti-semitism towards Saudis among public as result of release of such details.


    9/11 families tell Biden to release classified documents or don't come to memorial events

    Family members of those who were killed in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks do not want President Joe Biden to attend the memorial events unless he agrees to declassify evidence that they believe will show a connection between Saudi Arabia and the attacks.

    In a letter, which was obtained by numerous news outlets, President Biden is called upon to keep his campaign promise to release the documents.
    “Twenty years later, there is simply no reason – unmerited claims of “national security” or otherwise – to keep this information secret,” the letter states.

    In addition to releasing the documents, the group wants the Biden administration to implement a policy that Saudi Arabia “must acknowledge its role in terrorist attacks.”
    The letter is signed by nearly 2,000 people directly impacted by the attacks.

    Barrack endorsed Donald Trump during the 2016 United States presidential election. He was a major fundraiser for Trump's campaign through the "Rebuilding America Now" Super PAC, which raised $23 million.
    Barrack recommended that Trump hire Paul Manafort as his campaign manager. Barrack first met Manafort in the 1970s when they were both working for Saudis and living in Beirut; In 2007, Barrack had loaned Manafort $1.5 million to refinance a home in the Hamptons.

    On April 26, 2016, Barrack began an email correspondence with one of his business partners, UAE Ambassador Yousef Al Otaiba, reassuring him that Trump had investments in the UAE. “The emails were the beginning of Mr. Trump’s improbable transformation from a candidate who campaigned against Muslims to a president celebrated in the royal courts of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi,” according to New York Times writer David D. Kirkpatrick, who characterized this as a testament to Barrack's "unique place in the Trump world". On May 26, Barrack wrote to Otaiba to introduce Jared Kushner, and the two met later that month. On July 13, Barrack conveyed to Otaiba that Trump had removed from the Republican Party platform the plank calling for the release of the 28 pages of redacted information from the 9/11 report.[20] On July 21, Barrack spoke at the 2016 Republican National Convention.

    In September 2016, Barrack helped set up a meeting between Trump and the Emir of Qatar in Trump Tower, although, as Kilpatrick noted, none of the investments brought in from the gulf by Mr. Barrack's firm in the two years following that meeting came from Qatar. After Trump became president, Barrack continued to act as a middleman between him and Arab princes.
    Barrack served as chairman of the committee overseeing the 2017 Trump inauguration, for which he raised over $100 million, doubling the previous record. Barrack hired Rick Gates, first to help run the inauguration and, following that, as a consultant for his company. Gates was fired from the latter position in October 2017, the day he was indicted.

    Some may find following part controversial but seems well sourced... better sourced than Don Jr's book "Triggered" that also relates to differences between mainstream GOPers and Hard-Right conservatives like Groypers Army over discussing controversial topics like Israel, LGBTQ civil rights, USS Liberty etc:
