Tucker Carlson interviewed former Congressman Kurt Weldon, who has for years said that 9/11 needs to be re-investigated. He believes the truth hasn’t been told.
Wayne Curtis Weldon is an American educator and politician. He served as a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from 1987 to 2007, representing the 7th district of Pennsylvania. He was defeated in November 2006 for reelection by Joe Sestak.
During the interview, he made several claims about 9/11 and the Democratic party, including allegations that Congress knew about 9/11 before it happened and didn’t stop it and that his daughter’s house was illegally raided at the order of his opponent’s Democrat allies while he was near the end of his election trail.
In the most convincing part of the interview, Weldon told Tucker, “I don t have something I can give 100 percent I can’t swear on, but what I’m seeing bothers me to the core of my body that 9-11 did not happen because a group of hijackers got control of some planes.
“First of all, I’ve confirmed that two of the hijackers that were on one of the planes in New York were working for the CIA. They’re on the CIA payroll. And that was confirmed to me by someone in writing from one of our agencies, and I have that letter. So, two of the people involved were actually working for the CIA in one of the planes. I know that, and they lost control of them, and they were reprimands against those agency people after the fact.
“Second, I know the intelligence, they tried three times to transfer the information about information that could have prevented 9-11. That’s fact. To the Justice Department. And I have the name of the person that at the judge’s department they contacted, and she was told to cancel the meetings.
“They couldn’t have the meetings Who? Who did that order come from? Who? That’s what needs to be investigated. Okay. And then we have John Crane, the Inspector General of the Pentagon, who went to the extent of issuing a request for whistleblower status because he was told the lie to the Congress and lie about pre-9-11 intelligence and able danger. And then, we have General, the book by the General, and his comments that he knew within seconds. None of this is in a 9-11 commission report. The 9-11 Commission report is a piece of garbage.”
Opinion
This is the only part of the interview that sounded convincing to me. He didn’t present any evidence, and I haven’t read his book. He doesn’t believe that Building 7, part of the WTC complex, could collapse from the plane hitting the WTC. However, the World Trade Center’s underpinnings were massive, and there was tremendous force underneath Building 7. I’d need to see some evidence to be convinced it couldn’t come down due to the WTC collapse.
Maybe it was a CIA failure, but the rest of his logic is weak.
What do you think?
After twenty years in congress, Curt Weldon was about to become chairman of the House Armed Services Committee when he publicly questioned the accuracy of the 9-11 report. In retaliation, the Bush administration sent federal agents to his daughter’s house and ended his political… pic.twitter.com/vxiDRI8pfz
