POLICY WIRE — Kansas City, Missouri — Attorney General Todd Blanche has pledged to continue unveiling records tied to the September 11, 2001, attacks, reaffirming that classified materials are not being withheld to shield foreign governments, including Saudi Arabia.

Blanche made the remarks following increased pressure from 9/11 family members who have long sought unredacted documents. During the 25th anniversary commemoration, some families directly addressed the Trump administration, accusing past leaders of concealing evidence linking Saudi officials to the hijackers. The families have been involved in a prolonged legal battle against the Kingdom over alleged support for the attackers.

Recent revelations include a video showing Omar al-Bayoumi, a figure linked to two hijackers, filming the U.S. Capitol and referencing a “plan.” Additional materials, such as an airplane sketch and a math formula, were found in his UK apartment in 2001 but only recently shared with the FBI. Despite these disclosures, Blanche emphasized that more information will be released, though no timeline was provided.
