9/11 plot mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and co-accused agree to plead guilty

Military veterans criticized a plea deal by the Biden-Harris administration with accused 9/11 terrorists, claiming it is a “slap in the face” to victims' families, as reported by Republican New York Rep. Mike Lawler.
Brett Eagleson, president of 9/11 Justice, stated that the group seeks more access to the defendants for closure, saying they are “deeply troubled” by the deals.
