Hey everybody, Jason Burmes here and today is the day that Tucker Carlson will now release his 9-11 documentary series.
Now as I understand it, there are five parts.
Today we will get the first part for free and each week we will get another part put out into the public arena.
Subscribers to Tucker Carlson will get all five parts today.
Now he was originally supposed to premiere this documentary series at the 9-11 Turning the Tide DC event that I hosted.
But of course, we had the unfortunate and just irreconcilable political assassination of Charlie Kirk.
And this caused Tucker Carlson to cancel all appearances and postpone this documentary series.
So what we're going to do today is we are going to play the trailer for that documentary series.
And then we are also going to play three of the different presentations from that 9-11 conference, including Senator Ron Johnson on the day of Charlie Kirk's assassination, and then Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer, as well as former Congressman Dana Rohrbacher on the 9-11 anniversary itself.
Buckle up and get ready to make sense of the madness.
For 24 years now, politicians, the media, intel agencies in this country and abroad have all demanded that you believe the official story about 9-11.
That story is a lie.
Who beside Al-Qaeda knew the attacks were coming?
I can hear you!
Who made the decisions to ship the debris from the attacks out of this country?
There were no sources in Al-Qaeda.
How did the Bush administration manage to hijack an independent commission?
If you don't look for the evidence, you don't find the evidence.
Who attacked our country?
What were they trying to hide?
To me, it's a mystery.
What was the role of the CIA office in Building 7?
The American public deserves to know.
Why did it take the government five years to release footage of the Pentagon?
These public hearings are part of our search for truth.
None of these questions were even asked by the 9-11 Commission.
9-11 Commission is a cover-up.
You have CIA following two men all over the planet.
In his passport is a visa to go to the United States of America.
And you don't tell the FBI.
Why would the CIA want to hide the highly relevant fact that two known al-Qaeda terrorists had just landed in California?
No one has ever answered those questions.
No one has the balls to, because the house will come tumbling down.
The station chief in Riyadh was future CIA Director John Brennan.
It's really bad.
You know, it looks bad.
We had every bit of information we needed to stop the terror.
This law will give intelligence and law enforcement officials important new tools.
Because we were the good guys, we could do anything we wanted.
This government does not torture people.
He is a bald-faced liar.
Not everyone suffered in the aftermath of 9-11.
Some emerged the winners.
Iraq has weapons of mass destruction.
Before 9-11, Silicon Valley had the highest concentration of millionaires.
But post-9-11, Washington, D.C. has the highest concentration of millionaires.
After more than 20 years, the American people have a right to those answers, and they should demand to know what actually happened on September 11th.
You have to look at the evidence.
It's a pretty somber mood right now on Capitol Hill.
If you haven't heard, we've had a political assassination.
Charlie Kirk speaking to a group of young people at a university got shot in the neck and was died.
I am here out of respect for the political violence that occurred on September 11th.
I'm here because as ranking member of the permit subcommittee of investigations, our chairman held a hearing on the south of the Liv Golf, their agreement or their attempted agreement with the PGA.
I personally didn't agree with that investigation, but part of that investigation was a pretty high-profile hearing that prior to that hearing, we had family members of 9-11 come up to me and request me to use that moment to try and extract the information from the FBI in terms of what they knew, what the FBI knew about Saudi involvement.
Again, I'm from Wisconsin.
Obviously, I remember where I was in 9-11.
We all will never forget that, but personally was not impacted like the firefighters and the family members.
So this is really, you know, certainly as a public official, this is my first contact and really serious thought process going into really what impacted, I mean, as much as I was impacted by the iconic pictures of walking up, of the firefighters walking into danger.
And quite honestly, as chairman of Homeland Security, I just saw a video of the hearing we held at the 9-11 Museum in New York City back in, I can't remember what year it was, but it was when I was chairman of the committee.
And that obviously had an impact on me, but not to the extent that having the families come up and realizing that our government hasn't been forthcoming forth.
I didn't realize that.
So we asked for those records on a bipartisan basis.
Of course, we haven't gotten it.
I haven't gotten to this day.
That inquiry led to being contacted.
First of all, I've got a pretty good friend in Oshkosh.
He's a contractor, knows a lot about engineering, structural engineering, knows Richard, started sending me what I'd call the best of a James Corbet report.
I watched the different documentaries, Calling Al Bravo 7, Building 7, the last interview with Graham McQueen.
And like so many other things, whether it's my investigations into COVID and COVID injection and COVID injection injuries, childhood vaccine injuries, once your eyes are opened, you can't close them.
The problem we have in America today is so many of our institutions are no longer trustworthy.
The American people, for legitimate reasons, do not trust so much of our institutions.
And government is really kind of the leader in that lack of trust.
I believe that the family members, the firefighters, the people definitely impacted, have a right to know at least what our government knows.
Now, I also have to be very, very realistic.
I mean, I come from a manufacturing background.
I know how to solve a problem.
One thing you have to do is you have to set yourself achievable goals.
So I've talked to, I've spoken to enough people in this movement.
I think I know what you want.
Okay.
you want the full truth um i'm not sure that'll ever come out No, let's face it.
When President Trump promised to release, for example, all the files on JFK assassination.
In my mind, I'm thinking, well, I probably won't find much new.
There have been a lot, again, a lot of people interested in that, really dug deep, found witnesses.
A lot of witnesses died.
We find that somewhat of a pattern.
But I thought after 60-some years, what are the chances that the incriminating stuff wouldn't already have been destroyed?
I've got the same problem with the Epstein files.
Now, 9-11 happened a long time ago.
Met with a group, including Richard, earlier today.
I've given a couple interviews on James Corbett.
There'll be one coming out tomorrow with Brett Weinstein.
And a legitimate point I'm making, because I know a lot of people have theories.
I don't, again, some might be crazy.
I don't dismiss them.
Because so much information has been withheld, because so many legitimate questions not only haven't been answered, but anybody who even asks them is vilified for it.
okay um one of the reasons that i think it may be difficult to get to the very truth is if you really think about well what are the theories you know what what could have if it wasn't al-qaeda solely if there were people that helped them, okay?
If that were known, what does that do to our world?
I mean, we all, I think we're all old enough here.
We all saw 9-11.
We all remember that moment.
You probably uttered the exact same thing that about 2 billion people uttered that day is this changes everything.
The full truth may do that as well.
So again, I don't know whether the full truth can ever be possibly revealed.
I'm not saying I would do anything to cover it up, but I am saying I would understand, based on some of the theories, why even responsible government officials might say, I'm not sure this is something we should release.
I'm just giving you the resistance.
I'm trying to make sure you understand what the reality situation is here.
Now, from my standpoint, what I suggest, I know there's been a lot of suggestions about having President Trump appoint another 9-11 commission.
And as I've heard that, the structure of that would be, you know, don't have politicians involved.
And I don't disagree with that at all.
I do know President Trump has an awful lot on this plate.
I do know, and I think you need to be realistic about this, is, you know, those who want the truth, I mean, there's certainly people on the fringe.
There are a lot of people that write some, you know, put their theories out there, not particularly acceptable, easily marginalized.
Okay.
So I understand.
I think Kurt understands.
I mean, why, you know, politically, this is a, you know, this is a controversial thing to delve into.
Okay.
I generally have not been particularly fearful of delving into things that aren't particularly politically popular.
So, again, that doesn't deter me.
But I understand where maybe President Trump wouldn't want to appoint another 9-11 commission.
Quite honestly, I don't think it's necessary because I think you, within your group, and when I was on James Corby, he said, you know, what are you going to talk about?
Well, I said they'll probably be as dissatisfied with my speech as this interview is going to be dissatisfied.
I don't have the information.
Now, I don't really have the investigatory capability.
I've been trying to extract information from the federal government for years.
The deep state doesn't give up its secrets very easily.
So, I'm very realistic about that.
So, you know, what I've seen out of just ordinary citizens, the amount of information, the legitimate questions that have been raised are pretty impressive.
Okay.
So, I don't dismiss, and I acknowledge that there are so many questions that absolutely deserve to be asked without the people asking them being vilified or marginalized or termed crazy.
So, what I've suggested to the group today is you've got the experts.
Figure out how to cooperate.
Richard provided me before I started going to some of these shows once I opened my mouth on this subject.
So, give me the questions.
I've watched the documentaries, but it's kind of all scattershot.
Bring it together, lay out the list of questions, and he did.
It was very helpful.
But what I would suggest this group do is figure out how you cooperate, form your own version of a 9/11 commission.
I won't have the government funding.
You know, there may be some people at the current know that could kind of help provide some staff on this thing, but gather all the information, organize it well, you know, wrap it up in a bow.
And again, I can't make any guarantees, but if it's done well, and I would say only include irrefutable information, you know, nothing conjecture, nothing that can be attacked.
I think you have enough to create a report that I would then be willing to use.
And I have a responsibility, by the way, in terms of how I use a U.S. Senate committee platform.
I have a real responsibility, not just to the families and the firefighters of 9-11.
It's the families of the COVID injection injured, the families of the vaccine injured.
Now, I realize how I've been vilified in the media, you know, how I've been, again, what they do is they, oh, that person's been discredited.
Once you've been labeled discredited, you know, you're not a very effective voice.
So, quite honestly, I don't want any of you to be discredited.
I don't want to be discredited.
I have a responsibility to make sure I'm not discredited.
So, again, this is a very sincere suggestion: bring yourselves together, do it in an organized fashion, lay this out so the American people can look at this.
And maybe in the end, that's as an achievable goal as you can get here.
I don't know, maybe you'll go beyond that.
We won't know it.
This is one step at a time.
But what you're noticing, you're gathered here in the year 2025.
We're talking about things.
You've got a US senator here in front of you.
This hasn't happened, right?
Why is this happening this year?
Well, it's because people like Tucker Carlson, because Kurt Weldon has come out and started talking about these things.
Okay, the window, the aperture is being opened up.
You can't expect everything to be revealed tomorrow.
This may take some time.
Again, you may never, we may never know the full truth.
But I think at a minimum, at a minimum, the famines of 9-11, the firefighters, the people who've lost loved ones, the people who have been working to dig up this information, these legitimate questions, at a minimum,
ought to be given the respect to ask them without being ridiculed, without being vilified, without being marginalized, and as much as possible, get those questions answered.
So, again, maybe not particularly, it's maybe not particularly satisfying hearing from me in terms of kind of what my involvement in this thing would be, but that's my suggestion.
I think that's the best way to move forward.
And this literally is going to be step by step by step, but give yourselves credit.
Give the people like Richard and the others, you know, the Corbetts, all the people, you know, Kurt Weldon, give them credit for creating this opportunity.
Okay.
And that's really about all I have to say.
You know, I'm sure you were maybe looking for more.
That's kind of what I can offer, okay?
Kurt, did you have a question?
Kurt, can you come up and use the mic?
I know.
I'll speak from here.
And you'll hear from me tomorrow.
And I just want to say, this is the first senator who's had the gut to come out for what you all know.
You understand that this senator called me at my home on Easter Sunday, called me at my home on Easter Sunday, and so I want to talk to you.
And I went down and met with him, and I took people with me, including Judge Sullivan.
And he listened, but he just didn't listen.
You need to understand that with a person like this, you need to work carefully.
You need to help him because he's under tremendous pressure.
The opposition are not going to let him do anything that they think will give him an advantage politically or his party politically.
And this is not a political issue.
The president's in a tough spot, but this man has been willing to stand up and speak out, and he's an elected official.
So what I'm saying to you, regardless of anything else, need to go back to the people that you represent, especially those in Wisconsin.
Need to proclaim that this man is a hero to all of those people that we honor tomorrow.
Those 343 firefighters, those 2,977 responders and civilians, those 2,500 soldiers from the U.S. that were sent to Afghanistan to look for bin Laden when he was in Iran.
And they killed him with body bags.
This man is willing to speak out.
That's not easy.
Senator, I want to applaud you.
Tomorrow, Congressman Kucinich and Ruhrbacher are joining you here with us because they now decide it's got to be bipartisan.
We're going to build momentum, Ron, and it's because of you.
Thank you.
Well, I can't state this strongly enough.
This is not about me at all.
Again, the only reason I'm concerned about my not being marginalized is for the people that are counting on me to be able to uncover and expose the truth and have the reputation that when I expose the truth, it'll be accepted as truth and not immediately marginalized.
And so that includes this group, but it includes the people I'm advocating for on all the other subjects I'm trying to do.
So again, don't worry about this is not, I could care less about the political ramifications of this.
I care deeply about the people who deserve the truth and they're not getting it from our federal government.
I'm trying to get it for them.
So anyway, God bless all of you and enjoy your time for a question.
Do we have any questions?
Raise your hand if you'd like to ask a question of the senator.
We'll start with Manava.
senator right here here i for children's health defense are really grateful to you for what you've done
I phenomenal.
You said something on the James Corbett report, which I think is very important.
I think he interviewed you about eight or nine days ago.
And you said you're not ready to champion it, but you will platform it.
And I think that is an enormous move because that's all the truth needs.
We just need a platform.
It's going to fly on its own.
And I thank you for that.
Well, yeah, let me underscore.
I have a responsibility to that platform as well.
Okay.
I take that responsibility very seriously.
Sir.
Lost of our troops in Afghanistan.
And I want to recognize Pat Tillman as a special victim of assassination.
I think on the day after Kirk Charlie Kirk is assassinated, we've got to acknowledge that it's the assassins that are in charge for the most part.
I'm sorry.
So I think it was in the Corbett interview that I did start talking and kind of broaden this on a macro basis.
You know, would have we had 9-11 had America heeded George Washington's warning?
You know, listen, you know, America, and again, America is a great country because Americans are good people.
I mean, the fact that we send our sons and daughters across the world, not to gain territory, as Colin Powell said, you know, the only land we ask for is to bury our dead, but literally to help others gain their freedom, to have what we have.
I mean, that is extraordinary what we do for people as a people.
So I don't want to denigrate those efforts, but I think we have to question how often we put our nose into things that we probably shouldn't.
And maybe we put our, you know, after being the world leader after World War II, kind of thrust into that position.
Did we embrace it?
Did people like Alan Dulles and the CIA, and did we embrace it to such an extent that we got so involved in things that blew back on us?
Okay.
Again, those are legitimate questions to ask.
I mean, we should go through these four entanglements and go, okay, why did we do it?
What was the goal?
What was the cost in human life, ours and theirs, and human treasure?
I mean, if we would do that, if just going back to Vietnam and go through that, I don't think we'd be very happy with the results at all.
But again, it's not to at all denigrate the finest among us and the service and sacrifice they've had, but you have to have a sober post-mortem of all these things.
And I think that's one of the things I think as we go through this, whatever we do with 9-11, at a minimum, I hope we really do go.
So, again, not to blame us for it, but understand what our actions, what our foreign entanglements have resulted in.
And I think that's just that would be a healthy thing for us to do, which we generally don't do.
Listen, I love America.
I think we are the greatest history nation, the history of mankind.
We're not perfect.
We always ought to strive to be perfect.
So, again, sir.
Do you see, as you mentioned, under the current president, the aperture, the window of Pat's auntie from New Jersey?
Do you see under the current administration the aperture, the window that you described as the opportune moment?
But the evidence has to be not circumstantial.
Well, again, I think if you lay out the evidence in a highly organized fashion, where it's indisputable, irrefutable, bulletproof, does this president have the aperture?
He's quite the specimen.
I mean, I've never seen a president engage in more things early on in his administration.
So, I mean, we'll see.
You know, right now he's a busy guy.
Okay, I wouldn't be able to do what he did, what he does.
So, ma'am.
Hi, I'm Kathy Boylan.
I'm with the Catholic Worker, and I've been, you know, 9-11 truth president for a long time.
But one of the things that I'd like you to do is read David Ray Griffin, a theologian who wrote 14 books on 9-11 and was convinced it was a false flag operation.
And then I go to the Pentagon every Monday to ask the soldiers to put their guns down and refuse to kill.
And as the Air Force people go by, I always say to them, Do you wonder why the planes weren't scrambled on 9-11?
The planes that flew from Boston, why weren't they stopped?
It turns out that Rumsfeld had taken control of scrambling the planes three months before 9-11.
And he was out in the yard picking up debris on 9-11 at the Pentagon.
Rather than being in and listening, he was supposed to be calling on NORAD and the Air Force to scramble the planes.
And then there was Commander Worley at Andrews Air Force Base, who gave an interview to the Washington Post on 9-11 saying, my men were ready to go, but they had to wait.
We had to wait for an order.
The order never came because it was coming from Rumsfeld, who wasn't giving the order to scramble the planes.
Colonel Commander Worley, he was promoted that day.
A few years later, do you remember the big terrible crash of the metro at Fort Totten?
Do you remember that?
Nine people died.
Anyway, Colonel Worley and his wife died in that fiery crash.
And my opinion was he was killed because he would have, if there was another commission, he would have told that he would have had to tell the story because people already knew that he had said, I was waiting for an order that never came.
Thank you.
So again, here's an example of a lot of questions.
You know, just a small subset of the questions that needs to be organized and collated and put together, like I say, with a nice ribbon behind it.
And that's what you got to do.
Okay.
So, okay, one more.
Thank you so much for being here, Senator Ron Johnson.
You just mentioned how the aperture is opened.
Obviously, you're here.
Kurt Weldon's here.
He held hearings, I think, all the way back in 2005, 2006 on Able Danger.
It is the 24th anniversary.
What do we have to do between now and the 25th anniversary to try to get some accountability in that executive?
Because you just mentioned going all the way back to Vietnam, I would argue we haven't had any type of executive punishment since the days of Iran-Contra.
And even that was a lot of slaps on the wrist and pardons after the fact.
So again, you need to use word punishment.
I know a lot of people want that.
I use the word accountability.
And from my standpoint, the first step in the, quite honestly, the biggest step in accountability on a political realm is exposure.
Okay.
So that's exposure.
Expose it.
You know, allow the American people to see the truth.
And that's what I'm saying.
I think the best thing we can do is what I've suggested here.
You know, gather together.
You have, again, you got a lot of people that are way more expert, have looked into questions like the lady just talked about.
Man, I don't know these things.
Again, I think James Corbel was totally blown away by the fact when I said I, you know, really until I started delving into this, I had never heard of Building 7.
The vast majority of Americans haven't.
So again, people are seeing this.
People are asking questions.
People obviously, more people are understanding that you can't trust the government because you saw how much they lied to us during COVID.
But again, is it all going to be revealed tomorrow?
No.
I mean, this is a step-by-step process.
Be realistic about it and do a really good job here.
That's the best way to do it.
This issue, as every other real issue out there, is not about left or right.
It is always about right and wrong.
With that being said, I'm going to introduce somebody who did the right thing.
You know, I watched this man in interviews talk to the mainstream media when they were talking about 9-11, saying, you know, I was in a program to identify al-Qaeda operatives.
This was not in the 9-11 Commission report.
How can you have a report like this?
If it was World War II and Pearl Harbor, the same thing would have left out the Japanese.
It's ludicrous.
And then when he was in those hearings, he talked about being a rock star.
He talked about being somebody that was no Boy Scout, that wasn't hanging out in the Christian science reading room.
I'll never forget that quote.
No, he was doing real intel work.
Anthony Shaffer, please come up here.
He's going to tell you about Able Danger, and I've still no Bruce Dowd.
Right.
So I'm going to be way briefer than Kurt.
I can't, it's tough to follow Kurt.
I see Dana and my friend Crazy Dennis over there.
Hey, Dennis.
We're friends.
I can say that.
So Kurt laid out a very compelling framework for the issues we face as a community.
I've come to this not as an activist, but as a witness and an inadvertent witness, too, I might add.
When Kurt talks about me showing up, I was just told to go over and tell him what happened and tell the truth.
That was my orders.
Like, oh, okay, it's pretty easy.
And next thing you know, I'm an undisclosed source.
And next thing you know, I'm being interviewed and one thing led to another.
So much of what Kurt talks about are people here like me who just want the truth.
There's no other agenda.
And as Jason was saying, I had a good job doing spy stuff.
As a matter of fact, my bond moment's still in the International Spy Museum.
You can go over and see it.
I had no desire to leave.
So a couple of things to frame my little speech.
So does anyone know?
Now, some of you have studied this issue and studied Able Danger.
Can anyone tell you what my job was on Able Danger?
Can anyone tell me what my job was on Able Danger?
They can't tell.
You know why?
Because it's never been disclosed.
It's still secret.
All this time later, my two primary tasks are still above top secret.
So wouldn't we all agree maybe it's time we declassified that?
Maybe there's things that relate to why they shut us down right before 9-11 in those two elements of my job.
Maybe.
So this whole thing about data mining, while important, is not the issue.
Able Danger was an operation designed by Hugh Shelton to go kill al-Qaeda before 9-11.
That's it.
I'm not going to put a nice happy face on it.
As my friend Catherine Herritch says, no happy faces here.
And there's no happy faces here.
And my job, my oath of office required me to go do hard things to protect you and them and the people who fight fires.
Those people who ran into those buildings on 9-11 should never have had to run into those buildings on 9-11 had we done our job.
And I felt great regret to this day for every anniversary because we failed.
And let me tell you something.
We were designed to fail.
They were never going to let us be successful.
And that's part of what we have to look at.
Part of the task here, and I talked to Richard earlier tonight about this and Jason and Ted.
This is a triage.
This is a wide range of issues that we all face.
Kurt went through the majority of issues relating to first responders.
You're going to hear from Dennis tonight on some very compelling things that are highly important.
Our job is not, we're not going to get to the truth tonight or not.
We'd love to, but we don't have that time.
What we need to do is we have to triage the things we can get to immediately.
Richards made me, he's converted me.
Hallelujah.
I used to be a skeptic, but I've come a long way.
And I just, I look at all the questions that I have of my own story, which I've stuck to very closely over the years.
And it's like, man, these things just don't add up.
And one of the things that came to me recently, and I was talking with Ted, I think, on one of the programs, that smell, that industrial smell right after 9-11 down in southern Manhattan, that was thermite.
That was thermite.
That wasn't wires.
That was thermite.
It was metal.
And then you have all the things that people now could think about was in the air.
So it's just way past time we get to looking at these things that are provable.
And Building 7, you know, did you know the latest story?
Apparently pigeons landed on top and they were too heavy.
It's those pigeons.
I'm telling you, they're like rats that fly.
I'm telling you, it's true.
So that's what we're faced with.
We need to get to those things that we have to prove that we know we can prove.
Everything else, there's going to be a lot out there we can't get to right away.
But the big thing, as Kurt's saying, is get to the point of where we have credible, competent, informed, able investigators to go full bore into places where others don't want us to go into.
We need to go into those places and seek the truth and avoid the narrative, which we're always going to be trying to push back and accept.
Jamie Gorellik, the Gurellic memo, the issues relating to Phil Zelikow.
There were a number of characters which were out to do evil, to bury the truth from day one.
And I'm one that feels if we start looking at prosecutions, I think they should be up there on that list of folks that we should be looking at.
Because to this day, no one has been held accountable for 9-11, not a single person.
Not with all the people who die.
Not one.
I got fired because I dared go forward and talk about what I was told to talk about.
And that's the issue is that, you know, and by the way, Kurt's been very gracious.
I went on to do other things.
I'm a county commissioner in North Carolina right now.
I got elected.
Who'd have thought?
I know.
It's like, okay, we'll see.
And so, but I think that we all recognize the reason we're all here.
This burns in our hearts.
Some of us, it burns for different reasons.
We all have a passion for this.
My passion is because I failed and it haunts me.
Every time I see the faces of the men who ran into that building, I recognize the failure that I was left with after working two years.
We worked from 99 to 2000 on this project on Able Danger.
And I'm not going to go through, I don't have time to go through everything that was in the project.
It wasn't about data mining.
Data mining was a new technology which was being used for the first time.
Data mining is common now.
I mean, you walk down to the target, you're being data mined on.
I mean, you walk into the entrance, they're starting to look at everything you're doing.
Everything is digitized.
Back in the days we were doing this in 99, 2000, none of that existed.
We were the first.
So that became the distraction the DOD wanted people to focus on.
Oh, it's data mining.
Oh, it's all about a chart.
It's all about the fact that we can't verify what's on that chart.
Did you know that SOCOM has been, had a FOIA, the Freedom of Information Act, going back to 2004 from an organization called Judicial Watch?
You all know Judicial Watch, my friend Tom Finton and Chris Farrell.
SOCOM got back to them last year.
You know what they got back to him with?
You know what they said?
It's like, hey, we got your FOIA.
We're still working on it.
No, I swear to God, that was the answer.
It's like, yeah, hey, we got it.
We're still working on it.
20 years later.
Okay, we kind of know what's in there, and we know it's unclassified.
So, you know, you can release it anytime.
It's like, nope, not going to release it.
Why?
Why is that?
Why would you sit on it now?
Why?
I think we all are owed that answer.
And I think we can handle the truth, to quote Tom Cruise.
So tonight, I want you all to think about what you can bring to the table to help us and help encourage Kurt to go see President Trump.
We need to sit down with Trump.
President Trump has expressed concern and discontent and disbelief in the official narrative.
He said it several times.
We need to help inform his instincts.
I was an advisor to the last administration, and he was surrounded by some pretty bad people.
I'm going to do a quick story that relates to this.
I figured out the Russia collusion thing.
I've got good sources.
I'm a spy.
What can I say?
And we figured out, and I went on here and talked about it, that the Russia collusion thing was nonsense.
I went on in March of 2017 and said, we're going to find it's all nonsense.
And by 2018, I figured out who was all involved.
And I'd gone to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs I was advising and Mike Pompeo.
And I said, I need to talk to the president because we have to do a review of FBI's FBI's foreign counterintelligence program.
This is relating to some of Kurt's stuff.
I don't think Kurt's heard this story.
He's looking at me like he's not heard the story, so it's probably new to him.
Anyway, so I'm running something called Team B.
It consists of Jim Woolsey, Kurt's friend and Mike friend, Bud McFarland, Ambassador Hank Cooper, Dick Newton, a couple of other notable senior officers.
And I'm just lieutenant and colonel.
I'm running these guys.
It's like herding cats.
It's kind of fun.
And we're advising chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
We're going to Joe and said, look, Joe, General Dunford, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, said, look, we believe that the Pentagon's been compromised and we need to have a bunch of folks in Army counterintelligence do a full review of everything going on.
We think this guy named Halper, Steve Halper, you know, office net assessments up to no good.
And so basically we get approval and he says, yeah, go talk to the chief of staff to the chief.
Oh, my goodness, I'm having a Joe Biden moment.
The Marine Corps guy, General Kelly, General Kelly.
John Kelly was at that point in time, the chief of staff to the president.
So I go to John, and this is now mid-2019.
I said, John, I need to sit down and talk to President Trump and get him to approve an independent review by the Army, Army Cali Intelligence.
We have a qualified group to go and review the FBI's foreign counterintelligence program because we think it's corrupt.
You know what John Kelly told me?
Tony, I am never going to allow you to see the president.
I'm just shocked because I know John.
We're kind of friends.
It's like, why?
All you're going to do is inflame his instincts.
I swear to God.
So going to the president and telling him that things are effed up and we need to look at it, that will inflame, quote unquote, inflame his instincts.
Well, his instincts need to be inflamed, right?
And so that was what was happening the first term.
And this wasn't the only case of this.
So my point is, inflame people, not the rude way.
Don't, I mean, you know, don't go around like, what's her name, Waters with her fake wig.
Don't wear wigs.
Don't wear wigs.
Just say no to wigs.
But you've got to go around and get in people to convince them of the righteousness of your cause, our cause.
Our cause is the truth.
And maybe it's time we get people inflamed with the truth in a way that they cannot refute that will justify our moving forward to resolve this for all the brave firemen, all the brave policemen, all the brave workers who died on 9-11.
So with that, I'm going to quit off a little early because people want to go long, but thank you all for having me here.
I appreciate the time.
Thank you very much, Tony.
Yes, sir.
We're going to save the best for last.
You know, in Congress, you try to work with both sides.
And back when we were in, we did that.
It wasn't like, and there's some agencies that want members fighting like they are, just so you know that.
This is not all the members.
They're put up to it.
But the people you're going to meet together came down here to meet you.
One's a Democrat, one's a Republican.
They constantly work to try to avoid war and protect our troops.
Dennis traveled around the world on his own and with me.
He'll talk about some of those experiences.
And he's also going to bring up Dana, who was a top speechwriter for Ronald Reagan.
In case you never knew it, Dana was the top speechwriter for President Reagan, came to Congress, and Dana was on the cutting edge of work in Afghanistan.
Back before, when Afghanistan was a very unstable place, it was Dana's staffer, with the help of Dana, who put me in touch with him, Al C. Antolli, that allowed us to go over to meet with King Zahir Shah, living in exile, to convince him to go back to Afghanistan before we sent one American troop into Afghanistan to protect our troops.
So these are two great Americans who never got credit for that part of what I saw them do.
So Dennis, I'm going to turn it over to you.
Good evening.
I know it's late, but good evening.
When Catherine Bates wrote America the Beautiful in 1893, one of the lines that is quite memorable relates directly to Kurt Weldon.
And those of you who are familiar with America the Beautiful, the line is, who more than self their country loved, who more than self their country loved.
And that, my friends, is Kurt Weldon.
That's his service to this country.
That's his never-ending quest for truth and for justice.
Kurt, what an honor it was to serve with you in the Congress of the United States.
Please join with me.
Rise up, put your hand up, and give credit to this man who put it all on the line for this country and still does.
I love you.
I was privileged to serve in the Congress with Kurt Weldon and to travel with him many times in the cause of peace worldwide.
There's another individual I was privileged to serve with.
I'm going to introduce him.
He's going to speak briefly.
But I just want to say that Congressman Dana Rohrbacher, who's here with his wife, Rhonda, Congressman Dana Rohrbacher was a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and longtime confident of the Afghan freedom fighters.
And he was tipped off before 9-11 by a senior government official on a fact-finding trip to Qatar.
Dana tried to warn everyone about the pending attack, including Condi Rice, who agreed to meet with him, but not until 9-11.
No one in our government paid attention to his warnings, but he at that time was like the Paul Revere.
He was warning about what was coming.
And Dana, what an honor it was to serve with you in the Congress.
Your 30 years in the House of Representatives stands as a testament to public service.
And I would like all of you to join me in welcoming Congressman Dana Rohrbacher.
I led a congressional delegation to Doha and I was told I had to go to a meeting with a high-ranking official from Doha.
And sure enough, I went into this meeting and I recognized his face.
And a couple of years before that, I had marched into Afghanistan with the Bujah Din and we had, anyway, He was there to make sure that I was okay and he was there at the Battle of Jalalabad when we forced the Russians out, basically.
Okay, so I fought with the Mushadin against the Russians.
And this fella, I remember he had been unloading rockets from a mule train of rockets that I helped bring into Afghanistan.
And he had requested that I then go and meet with him in Doha when he realized that I was going to be in Doha.
And what he said was he realized that something horrible was going to happen in the United States of America.
And you've got to be aware, Dana, because he was talking to me like a partner in arms, you know, like a soldier in arms watching because he knew that what was happening, that a lot of Americans would die.
Perhaps people who had helped me and helped him defeat the Russians in Afghanistan.
And he told me that there was going to be the worst terrorist attacks in our country's history and that they would fly planes into buildings after hijacking them in the air, along with they would be blowing up power stations, nuclear power stations.
They were training for this.
And there would be a sign that would be given to let those people know that this was the moment that they were going to move forward with this terrorist attack.
And frankly, I was watching very closely what happened and what was going on, of course, in Afghanistan.
And what happened, of course, was that this guy felt confident.
He said that what would happen, this attack would take place after there to be a major change in the direction of the battle in Afghanistan.
And what happened was, of course, Commander Massoud was murdered.
And Commander Massoud and James forgives me right now, but Commander Massoud was the guy who was, everybody knew, would be leading the charge in Afghanistan.
And they murdered him.
And at that moment, I knew that it was his death that would trigger the attack on 9-11 that I was told.
So what to do?
I tried my best to get the word out, but I will just say this, that it's clear to me that there's more to 9-11 than what the American people know about.
And what's clear to me is the people who should be watching out for the interests of the American people were not watching out for our interests and our safety.
And I am pleased to stand here with my two colleagues and pledge to you that I will do my best and work with them.
We will see that the truth comes out.
And folks, that is going to do it.
Let us hope that Tucker Carlson's documentary series really lives up to the 9-11 truth movement and we can gain that momentum from this 24th anniversary into the 25th anniversary.
