Biden-Harris Administration Reaches Plea Deals With 9/11 Mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, 2 Others

The Biden-Harris administration has reached plea deals with three of the five alleged Al Qaeda terrorists who are being held at Guantanamo Bay for their roles in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the U.S.

Prosecutors have entered into pretrial agreements with 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin ‘Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi.

The Department of Defense would not make public specific terms and conditions of the plea deals.

“The three accused, along with Ali Abdul Aziz Ali and Ramzi Bin al Shibh, were initially charged jointly and arraigned on June 5, 2008, and then were again charged jointly and arraigned a second time on May 5, 2012, in connection with their alleged roles in the September 11, 2001, attacks against the United States,” the Pentagon said.

The New York Post reported that the victims’ families were told by the Office of Military Commissions (OMC) in a letter that the plea deals would allow the three terrorists to be spared the death penalty.

The letter said in-part: “In exchange for the removal of the death penalty as a possible punishment, these three accused have agreed to plead guilty to all of the charged offenses, including the murder of the 2,976 people listed in the charge sheet.”

Nearly 3,000 people were killed during the 9/11 attacks, the largest terrorist attack in history.

“I feel like I was kicked,” said retired police officer Jim Smith, whose wife, Moira Smith, was the only female police officer who died on 9/11. “The prosecution and families have waited 23 years to have our day in court to put on the record what these animals did to our loved ones. They took that opportunity away from us. They committed the worst crime in the history of our country, they should receive the highest penalty.”

Women’s USA Rugby Sevens Scores Massive Donation After Unbelievable Olympic Win

Women’s USA Rugby scored a massive donation after the Team USA Women’s Rugby Sevens team scored an unbelievable historic win at the Paris Olympics against Australia.

The owner of several women’s soccer teams, Michele Kang, donated $4 million over the course of four years to the USA Women’s Rugby Sevens through Kynisca Sports International (founded by Kang to invest in women’s sports and women’s soccer), ahead of the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

“2024 has been a banner year for women’s sports with record-breaking attendance and viewership, and women’s rugby is no exception,” Kang said.

“I am so happy to support these outstanding athletes to realize their dream in capturing the gold in Los Angeles in 2028,” she added.

Hours after the U.S. women claimed bronze for the country’s first Olympic medal in rugby sevens, the team received an unprecedented donation from business mogul Michele Kang.

“That work starts now,” Kang continued. “As corporate sponsors and broadcast networks increasingly see the value and enthusiasm for women’s sports, now is the moment to unlock the full potential of these incredible female athletes and inspire generations to come.”

Chief Executive Officer at USA Rugby Bill Goren said, “We are stunned and beyond grateful for this transformative gift from Michele to advance USA Women’s Rugby.”

“This will allow us to supercharge the progression of this program as we build to climb the podium in 2028 with Gold Medal aspirations in Los Angeles,” Goren added. “This increase in support will ensure we can deploy the resources to the right places to win when it matters the most, inspiring a nation of rugby players and solidifying our place on the world stage.”

The donation came hours after the USA Women’s Rugby Sevens team finally scored its first-ever Olympic medal when the team took home a bronze in a can’t-miss-finish, as previously reported.

During the 2024 Summer Olympics on Tuesday, USA had fallen to 7-12 behind Australia, when the Aussie’s Maddison Levi went for the conversion and missed, NBC News reported.

Team USA’s Ariana Ramsey got the ball and threw it to teammate Alex Sedrick, who caught the ball and went on to fight off not one but three Team Australia defenders. It was then off to the races as Sedrick ran the entire length of the rugby pitch with no one even close to catching her. 

In the final seconds, she dove over the line and slid down under the posts to score as her team went wild, bringing the score to 12-12.

It was then up to Sedrick — who isn’t the normal kicker for the team — to make the final kick that went right through the uprights to give USA a 14-12 victory, the outlet noted.

Members of Team USA then gathered on the field to hug and celebrate as the crowd went wild with their historic win.
