‘Get Out Now’ – Inside the White House On 9/11, According to the Staffers Who Were There

On Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, I anticipated a busy but relatively calm day at the White House.

I was the special assistant to the president for management and administration, and President George W. Bush was in Sarasota, Florida, promoting the No Child Left Behind legislation. The senior official in the White House was Vice President Dick Cheney. First lady Laura Bush was scheduled to travel to Capitol Hill to brief senators on early childhood education. On the South Lawn, tables were being set up for that evening's congressional barbecue.

    At the time, my office was 3 miles due north of the Pentagon. The black cloud of smoke I saw rising from the fire will be in my mind until the day I die.

    Everyone mentioned here hates our freedom and turned out to be a traitor to the Constitution. Pushing a totalitarian communist agenda on America.
