“We had a bill we took up the last vote of the day before we are out for October, and it was strange because this bill got rushed to the floor. I can't find anybody on our side of the aisle who had any idea this was coming until yesterday afternoon. It is interesting, though. It is titled Fairness for 9/11 Families Act, and it makes $2.982, right at $3 billion, available for 9/11 families. There has been a lot of money provided in the past, but it is interesting because just last week, I was talking about this article from September 12 by Daniel Greenfield about what the Biden administration was doing in battling against 9/11 victims' families in court. There was $7 billion of Afghanistan assets, bank funds, liquid money funds in the bank in America that were frozen after 9/11 when we found out who was responsible. The 9/11 victims' families sued, and they had gotten a judgment against the Taliban, al-Qaida, and Iran for $6 billion. As this article points out, White House Democrats have a history of fighting against terror victims who are suing Islamic terrorists. The Obama administration battled American terror victims suing the PLO. In 2015, after they won a $218 million judgment against the terror group, Blinken, then only a Deputy Secretary of State, intervened, claiming that the lawsuit threatened ``several decades of U.S. foreign policy.'' In other words, he took up for the terrorists against the victims' families.…”
