Gary Bauer: America Last

You probably missed this news, but the Biden Administration is putting America last yet again. In their frantic efforts to shut down the terrorist detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Biden officials are negotiating plea deals with the 9/11 terrorists, including mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, that avoid the death penalty. 


Mohammed attempted a real coup against the United States. He attacked the symbols of America's economic and military strength. The plane that was brought down over the fields of Pennsylvania was likely headed to the Capitol Building, not with the intention of merely disrupting the day's proceedings, but killing hundreds of members of Congress. 


September 11th was an effort to decapitate America! 


But now we have a government that will spare no expense to throw 70 year-old Trump supporters in jail for far less than what radical leftists did in every major city in the summer of 2020. At the same time, Biden officials are working to ensure that Mohammed is spared the death penalty. 


This is the progressive mind at work.


I have a personal interest in this news because Mohammed once smuggled a letter out of prison through his attorney. In that letter, he attacked Christians who support Israel and named four for death. I was one of the four. 


Given the double standards of justice we have seen in recent years, I have a feeling that if Mohammed had singled out Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Hillary Clinton and George Soros for death, no one in the Biden Administration would be taking the death penalty off the table.
