When it was announced that President Joe Biden would be breaking with more than two decades of tradition and not attending September 11 memorial events in New York, Washington or Pennsylvania I must say I was somewhat relieved. Given the man’s horrendous awkwardness and clear cognitive decline, I figured it was best for everyone if he just stopped over in Alaska.

But it turns out that Biden may have hidden in Anchorage similar to the way that he used to hide in his basement during the 2020 presidential race.

Why?

Most probably because of the surprise “gift” that Joe Biden and the “Bidenistas” in his administration, led by Secretary of State Blinken, sprung on an unsuspecting nation on this solemn day of mourning.

On September 11 of all days, the Biden administration announced a “prisoner swap” with Iran and unfreezing of $6 billion of Iranian assets.

Let me rephrase that.

We will be trading legitimate prisoners for hostages that the Iranians have seized for just such purposes. And we will be paying $6 billion in ransom to go along with the deal.

I had trouble contemplating why such a truly shameful deal would be announced on September 11. The only conclusion I could come to is that it was quite intentional. Biden and Blinken made this deal with the world’s most active state sponsor of Jihadist terrorism and purposely announced it on September 11.

What could their motivation be?

It’s tough to say but there is no way in the wide world that this was just a coincidence. Biden and Blinken are sending a signal to someone. To the American people. To the 9/11 families. To the Ayatollahs.

Basically what this says is, “All is forgotten, we’re moving on. September 11th is so…2001. Besides, Iran is Shia and Al Qaeda is Sunni so there’s no connection there.”

That last line especially angers me because, as someone who has worked in that area for years, none of what that statement says is true.

It has been undeniable for decades that Iran has been supporting Al Qaeda. In fact, on September 11, the Biden administration made a deal with a nation that has a long history of aiding and abetting Al Qaeda…as I have written repeatedly for years…

Such as in National Review.

It is especially infuriating that the Biden administration would hand over $6 billion to Iran given the fact that Iran harbors one of Al Qaeda’s main fundraisers.

In fact, the US Treasury Department has for over a decade offered a $10 million reward for his capture.

Is it just a coincidence that Biden released $6 billion to Iran on September 11, given a federal judge awarded that same amount to 9/11 victims’ families?

All of these reports are over a decade old, which means they are well-known and Biden simply does not care.

He’s giving $6 billion to, and negotiating with the world’s most active state sponsor of Jihadist terrorism—which just also happens to be a country with an illegal uranium enrichment program and a ballistic missile development program along with it.

Joe Biden and his cabal are sending a signal, that’s for sure. And it’s one that no US president should ever send.
