GOP Senator [Ron Johnsson - WI] Pushes Conspiracy Theory That 9/11 Was an Inside Job: ‘My Eyes Have Been Opened’
mediaite ^ | April 21 | Kipp Jones

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) suggested Monday that the US government may have played a role in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks during an interview with MAGA influencer Benny Johnson on The Benny Show.

The senator, who sits on the Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, questioned the official explanation for the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7 and echoed claims frequently raised by conspiracy theorists on the fringes of the internet.

“Within these agencies, a lot of them are going to cover their tracks and cover things up and destroy a lot of evidence,” the senator said. “It’s gonna be very frustrating for the American public because this is their information. They deserve the truth. It’s been hidden from them way too long.”

Sen. Johnson praised Benny Johnson for “opening up the aperture on 9/11” and referenced firefighters’ statements about the events of Sept. 11, 2001.

“I know you and I are both considered conspiracy theorists,” Johnson said, “but that’s exactly how they keep this stuff covered up.”

The two also discussed the possibility of Congressional hearings into the 9/11 attacks. When asked what he wanted to know, Sen. Johnson focused on Building 7 – which conspiracy theorists have claimed went down in a controlled demolition

“Start with Building 7,” he said. “I don’t know if you can find structural engineers other than the ones that had the corrupt investigation inside NIST that would say that thing didn’t come down in any other way than a controlled demolition.”

I don’t recall all the details, but I do remember my conclusion, which was that all the evidence suggested a controlled demolition.

How many explosive rigs would it require to take it down?

How many rigs were found after?

And look at even the one clip they released, as opposed to those they confiscated: There is no way a 757 was virtually taxiing on the ground there like that at a high speed, for one.

I’ve read extensively on 9/11, specifically the Pentagon attack.

What SPECIFICALLY in the photo at 57 is fake?

WTC 7 was the site of the Mayor’s command bunker. Part of this were 6000-gallon diesel fuel tanks for emergency generators, which was located at about the third-floor level.

You know nothing about me - makes you just like the low-IQ Leftists who run on emotions 🤪 instead of logic....they’re really easy for the other nutjobs to manipulate.

Lucky for me - I don’t care if you believe me...

I have an old friend who’s really into this theory. My reply to him was, “I’m a birther, not a truther.”
