Families of those killed on 9/11 are protesting the LIV Golf tournament that is underway at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. NickJCaloway reports.
In September, an FBI report showed evidence that two Saudi officials provided support to at least two of the 9/11 terrorists. Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were Saudi nationals. Many of the protesters said they were once Trump supporters.
Eddie Bracken, who lost his 36-year-old sister in the attacks, said he's disappointed in the former president. The Saudi-funded league has been poaching PGA stars with huge contracts. Some are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. In a statement, LIV said, in part,"While some may not agree, we believe golf is a force for good around the world."
"You know, I was 4 and a half when my father was murdered," Scauso said."My father wasn't the type of person who could be bought, and I just want you to know that if you were there that day, my father would have run in to save you without a second thought."
