[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] 'He has variously denied making any mistakes, claimed he anticipated the entire mess, and wherever possible blamed Donald Trump.
'He also dodges the hard question by constantly insisting the issue in contention is his decision to leave rather than the deadly hash he’s made of it.
'And he bizarrely keeps invoking his son, the late Maj. Beau Biden, a Delaware Army National Guard lawyer who served honorably in Baghdad and whose early death from brain cancer was tragic but has nothing to do with Afghanistan, much less the 11 Marines, Navy corpsman and Army soldier killed in Thursday’s suicide bombing.
[MAIL] A former FBI agent who worked on an investigation into the 9/11 attacks says two of the hijackers likely had help in the US. FBI handlers possibly? Asking for a friend.
Danny Gonzalez was involved in the still-classified FBI investigation 'Operation Encore,' which looked into two of the hijackers living in San Diego before the attacks, and whether they had help.
He says he believes the attackers had relied on a US-based support network. Drip, drip, drip, drip.....
The revelation comes on the heels of an executive order signed Friday by President Joe Biden, directing the Department of Justice to declassify some documents related to the attacks at the behest of families and survivors affected by the tragedy on the eve of its 20th anniversary. So now it's "some documents".....? Everything else remains in the memory hole.
The families are suing the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for what they believe was the country's official involvement in the attacks, and say the documents could provide evidence in the suit.
The kingdom has denied it had anything to do with the attacks. Fifteen of the 19 September 11 hijackers were Saudi citizens.

I am sure Sandy Berger ditched all that evidence years ago.
[DW] Once allies, Saudi Arabia and the Taliban have been divided by war, betrayal, and 9/11. As Afghanistan changes and Middle East relations shift, the two won't rekindle ties, but another nation is looking closely at Kabul.
In the past, they worked together. But today, Saudi Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... and the Taliban
