The CIA knew two of the 9-11 hijackers were in the United States. They weren't hiding. They were living openly in San Diego, one with his name in the phone book. So when an FBI agent tried to sound the alarm, why was he ordered to stand down? That's the explosive allegation at the heart of Tucker Carlson's new documentary, The 9-11 Files. For over two decades, the story we've been told is one of incompetence, a failure to connect the dots. But this series argues it wasn't a failure, it was active obstruction. The documentary presents a terrifying theory. The CIA wasn't just watching the hijackers, it was trying to recruit them as double agents. If true, it was a high-stakes gamble that required keeping the FBI out of the loop. Making matters worse, the hijackers were living with an active FBI informant. The documentary posits this wasn't just a failure to communicate, it was a turf war that spiraled out of control.
