House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) announced late this week that the Committee has launched an investigation into the Biden-Harris White House over the plea deal that was given to the terrorists behind the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.

The administration faced severe backlash after news of the plea deal — which included sparing the terrorists the death penalty in exchange for them pleading guilty to the events of that day and the murder of 2,976 people — was made public. The administration later removed retired Brig. Gen. Susan K. Escallier, the person who offered the deal, from overseeing the case and canceled the offer.

Under the pretrial agreements, 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin ‘Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi would have served, at most, life sentences in prison.

Comer said that the Committee was investigating what involvement the administration had in negotiating and/or approving the deal.

“The pre-trial agreements followed 27 months of negotiations and were approved by senior Pentagon officials,” Comer said. “This timeline falls entirely within your Administration.”

Comer acknowledged that the administration claimed that they had no involvement in the process, but said that the claim was “far from believable or appropriate.”

“In addition to questions surrounding the White House’s role in this decision, the Committee is also concerned about the complete lack of transparency regarding the deal,” Comer said. “The specific terms of the pre-trial agreements remain undisclosed to the public or families of the victims. You are allowing these terrorists to avoid the death penalty, signaling to our enemies that the United States is reluctant to pursue full justice against those who attack our nation.”

The Committee asked for the administration to produce a number of documents within the next two weeks, including complete and unredacted copies of the pre-trial agreements; all documents between the White House and the Pentagon related to the pre-trial agreements or that mention the names of any of the terrorists who entered the agreements, all documents and communications prepared for White House officials about anything related to the three terrorists; and all documents and communications between the White House and the Department of Justice related to the pre-trial agreements or any of the terrorists.
