The Responders Tell the Truth About 9-11

Liberty RoundTable, Tuesday, October 27, 2026
By Sam Bushman

My fellow Americans, happy to have you along. I'm Sam Bushman with hard-hitting news the network refused to use, and Lance Migliaccio was with me to break down the news today. Then we were joined by filmmaker John Kirby and first responder Chris Gioia to talk about the new film The Responders. Boy, howdy, if liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they don't want to hear.

The Comey Clown Show

We started with James Comey and the Justice Department bringing a third round. Lance said it was a little confusing to him, and asked how it is that it's not a superseding indictment. I told him, don't be confused. It's a clown show, so it's theater. You don't need technical terms for theater, sir. You just need to make it sound really good. Before the midterms, we've got to release the third round, my friend.

Microsoft, AI, and Seizing the Day

Lance has been saying it from the rooftops: anybody who thinks AI is going to protect your job and create this period of affluence like Elon Musk and other CEOs are saying, forget about it. Maybe it's time to go back to plumbing school or electrical school or become an apprentice, because the service people may be protected for a while, but everybody else's job is at risk.

I said it is at risk unless you seize the day. If you understand AI and become a clear-cut expert, there is opportunity. But Microsoft is falling so far behind. They failed with the phone, and now they have failed with AI, and this is their hope to leapfrog. Lance said you never see Microsoft ranked in the top AIs, and he uses ChatGPT, Grok, Claude, DeepSeek, Gemini, all for different reasons. He agreed with me: he doesn't like people cramming products down his throat.

The Responders Film

Then we turned to 9-11. I covered 9-11 live on the air when it happened. Man, it was gnarly. Right from the start, I didn't believe what we were being told. I've interviewed people for 25 years: 9-11 truthers, architects, engineers, experts. We've been punked on this thing. We've been lied to, and it's a problem.

The film is The Responders, and the website is TheRespondersFilm.com. John Kirby, the director, told us he understood from the beginning that 9-11 was not what it appeared to be. He had been involved with Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth, helping make videos and ads. He said this film is the first time responders as a group have come together to talk about what they actually heard and saw.

John talked about Captain Richard Patterson, a high-ranking whistleblower, who saw guys with black rifles outside Building 7 preventing people from going in. He also saw a guy in brand-new Carhartt, a brand-new hard hat, and brand-new shoes come out of the dust and tell everybody Building 7 was going to fall at 5 o'clock that day. Building 7 was 47 stories, had the Mayor's Command Center, the CIA, the SEC, and other agencies, and it came straight down in its own footprint at 5:20 in the afternoon. It wasn't hit by a plane. It looked like a classic controlled demolition.

Chris Gioia told us he was working across the river on 9-11. He does heavy construction for a living and is a volunteer fireman in Franklin Square, 20 miles east of Manhattan. He heard a big explosion, saw the towers, and, through surveying equipment, saw people waving for help and jumping. He saw the outline of the plane in the north tower. Then the second plane hit, the Pentagon was hit, and by the time he got home, both towers had collapsed. He and his wife sat there totally flabbergasted and in shock.

Bobby McElvain and the Smoking Guns

One of the most powerful parts was Bobby McElvain. John said Bob McElvain Sr. responded immediately by saying, " Not in my son's name. Don't take us to war in my son's name. Then he did a forensic investigation of his own child's death. Can you imagine that?

John said Bobby Jr. was killed before the first plane hit. His father knew it because of the pattern of explosives and because they had his body before the building collapsed. Bobby was blown out of his shoes and socks, the top of his head was gone, and they used his teeth to identify him. Even for guys like us, that's hard evidence. You go, wait a minute, are you sure? And the answer is yes.

John connected that with William Rodriguez down in the sub-basement, who felt a deep, powerful explosion from below and then heard the plane hit. People came out of the sub-basement with their skin hanging off. Witnesses said a bomb hit the lobby first and then a plane hit the building seconds later. My take: they're gaslighting us. It's flat-out pure propaganda.

Lance, with his background in tactical and combat demolition, said blasts have a consistent pattern: heat waves, shock waves, the way material is ejected, atomized material. If a building just fell, the material would not be ejected like that. We talked about how they didn't even find large electronics, just little pieces of a keyboard and pieces of a phone. Everything was blown to bits.

Building 7, Steel, and the Investigation They Didn't Do

Chris brought up NFPA 921, the guide for fire and explosion investigations. Chris read that it sets the bar for science-based investigation and analysis of fire and explosion incidents. The 9-11 Commission and NIST ignored it. They did not examine the wreckage for evidence of explosions. NIST said they found no evidence of explosives, but when a reporter asked if they checked for explosives, they said no.

That pretty much sums it up. How do you find what you refuse to test for?

A Movement, Not Just a Movie

Chris had the last word to America: keep an open mind. Use your brain and see for yourself. Don't believe everything you hear. Watch the movie and decide for yourself. I'm not going to tell you how to think. You do it yourself.
