Let's Roll: 21st Anniversary of 9/11 Beams Bright on Former Wheaton Hooper

Authentic patriots are wondering how much stranderer-in-chief Plagiarist Bile-dumb, incapable of doing more than photo op, could possibly sully solemn scenes at Ground Zero, Pentagon and Shanksville, Pa., more than his programmed presence during last year's 20th Anniversary of 9/11 Attacks after he gave a version of Schindler's List to businesslike-and-professional "Tally-bon" savages in throes of abandoning Americans/allies/Christians in Afghanistan. Ditto petty politicians and race hustlers seeking to reimagine "defunding" sacrificial police. Law enforcement has forgotten more about dignity than they know and cops haven't forgotten much. Anyone with functioning brain knows law and order rank-and-file personnel despise neurotic Bile-dumb and are fond of Donald Trump.

Rather than wasting time dwelling on trying to find Bile-dumb's heirloom record player for kids at night, Bozo Beto fantasizing about running over anyone with car who doesn't accept his buyout turning over weapon, Bernie Sanders' rape-fantasy essay and Russian honeymoon, New York Slimes' hearsay smearing of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, reprobate kneeling knucklehead NFL/NBA social scholars, a Russian in every closet with #TheDonald ties, inane "Some People Did Something (including with brother?)" Odd Squad of #Dimorat Congresswomen, Kamala "Laughing at Retarded Slur" Harris funding bail for rotten-to-the-core rioters, dismantling statues, cockroach hurricane looters or rogue woke joke blowhard Gen. Milley, focus instead on college hoops having a contemplative connection to a sacred day (9/11). Oracle Corp account manager Todd Beamer, who collected 24 points and 12 rebounds as a sophomore guard for Wheaton (Ill.) in 1988-89, was traveling from New Jersey to California on United Airlines Flight 93 for a business meeting on September 11, 2001, when he was instrumental in leading a takeover by 40 passengers from radical Islamic terrorists, forcing the plane down in Pennsylvania countryside about 80 miles SE of Pittsburgh.

Beamer died the same morning as former Columbia hooper Tyler Ugolyn (1997-98 and 1998-99), an investment analyst for Fred Alger Management on the 93rd floor of first tower hit by terrorists at the World Trade Center; Albany's 1989-90 assists leader Stephen "Zipper" Mulderry, a 33-year-old VP for the investment and brokerage firm of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods on 89th floor of South Tower; Cantor-Fitzgerald bond trader Dan Trant on 104th floor of North Tower (final pick in 10th round of 1984 NBA draft by Boston Celtics after career scoring average of 15.4 ppg with Clark MA); 1982-83 ECAC Player of the Year Tim O'Brien (24.4 ppg with Hartwick NY), a broker for Cantor-Fitzgerald on 105th floor of North Tower; Cantor-Fitzgerald VP Steve Hagis (Fairfield center in 1987-88 and 1989-90), and newly-named Cantor-Fitzgerald partner Todd Isaac (played for Holy Cross in 1991-92 under coach George Blaney). Joe Quinn was a guard at Army that fateful day when his older brother (Jimmy) died while working as Cantor-Fitzgerald stock trader along with colleagues Billy Minardi (Iona coach Rick Pitino's brother-in-law) and Martin Niederer (played for Vermont in 1995-96 under coach Tom Brennan). Carmine Calzonetti, a guard for three NCAA tourney teams at St. John's in the late 1960s, worked for Cantor-Fitzgerald on the 105th floor before leaving the firm 18 months prior to the attack.

Marcel Ten Berge, another ex-DI hooper, escaped the second tower. Ten Berge, who averaged 2.4 ppg and 3.1 rpg for Northern Arizona from 1993-94 through 1995-96, was with a contingent from his company for training sessions. Californian Ten Berge was in Morgan Stanley's main lobby when United Airlines Flight 175 slammed into the building before he rushed down the stairs amid heavy smoke. While no Goldman Sachs employees died that day from the assault, managing partner Randy Frankel (end-of-bench reserve for Hofstra's 1976 NCAA playoff team) was caught in the rubble in his executive role years before becoming minority owner of the MLB's Tampa Bay Rays. In the aftermath of the attacks, Goldman Sachs benefited from the government's determination to avoid losing jobs in lower Manhattan. Constructing a new headquarters cater-cornered to where the WTC previously stood qualified the firm to sell $1 billion of tax-free Liberty Bonds and secure about $49 million of job-grant funds, tax exemptions and energy discounts.

Captain William Harry Thompson, father of former DI hoopers Michael Thompson (Drexel's top scorer in 1990-91 and 1991-92) and Rahsaan Thompson (Maine last half of 1990s), was a veteran officer in the NY Unified Court System and an instructor in the court officers' academy. He didn't have to be a first responder but went beyond the call of duty by sprinting a half-mile to Ground Zero, where he died rescuing people. Three former College of Staten Island players (Terrance Aiken, Scott Davidson and Tom Hannafin) perished during the terrorist attacks. Aiken had just started a computer consulting job on the 97th floor of World Trade Center Tower I while Davidson and Hannafin were NYC firefighters. Another ex-hooper perishing that fateful day was Jimmy Riches, a Manhattan product who contributed 100 three-pointers for Belmont Abbey NC in the early 1990s. The Engine Company 4 firefighter reportedly was last observed exiting the WTC when, as he reached the lobby, a female fell behind him. He reportedly stopped to put the woman on his shoulder and never was seen again.

Beamer and courageous cohorts, knowing their lives were in peril, are credited with foiling hijackers bent on crashing the Boeing 757 into a second target in Washington, D.C., 20 minutes away (possibly the Capitol or White House). Beamer recited the 23rd Psalm with a GTE/Verizon supervisor over the plane's in-flight telephone before imploring her via a heart-felt promise she would call his family. "I don't think we're going to get out of this thing," he told her. "I'm going to have to go out on faith." The phone line was still open when the operator heard him say following a gut-wrenching passenger vote: "Are you guys ready? Let's roll."

Beamer's bravery is a stark contrast to the Washington waffling exhibited by vacation-obsessed and impeachment-inspired Congressmen, who still have not held sufficient number of the human debris in Libya and in U.S. accountable for additional 9/11 terrorism in Libya in 2012. Why didn't they interview State Department stooges involved in silencing contractors? And now we're supposed to trust them amid the Syria and Iranian shenanigans. The stonewalling Obama Administration featuring #DirtyRice as unmasked propagandist - either grossly incompetent or purposefully in "crude and disgusting" fraud - dealt with a terrorist assault on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi by shamelessly standing in front of caskets at an airport hangar (plus the White House press corps, the U.N. and national politically-oriented shows such as Meet the Depressed) offering an orchestrated al-Qaeda on-the-run narrative claiming the nondescript video was responsible for the murder of the American ambassador and three other Americans. Their most despicable act was regurgitating the same outrageous ruse face-to-face to grieving family members.

How authentic or outright evil were those narcissistic embraces from Big Balls Biden and fellow fatal finaglers? Any miserable elitist who irrationally emphasized a movie lie in one-on-one conversations with mourners doesn't possess the dignity worthy of setting foot on White House grounds with a pooper scooper. Did you watch the disgusting displays by top State Department officials trying to deflect criticism during Congressional testimony concerning Benghazi? Their warped accountability equivalency for four murders was four relatively brief employee reassignments.

Incredibly, a Navy SEAL among the deceased violated stand-down orders to help save numerous individuals at the death-trap embassy and then fought the terrorists for 7 1/2 hours while his pleas for backup at a nearby annex were ignored by government officials real-time watching events unfold. Weeks and months later, the evasive apologist-in-chief and cowardly cronies were still striving to supply a cogent response to their deflect-and-deny sacrificial-lamb inaction all for the sake of propping up progressive policies as pathetic as pap embraced by know-it-all ex-NYC mayor Michael "Big Gulp" Bloomberg and current clown Bill duh Blasio.

Where's a photograph of the vaunted Obama Team deliberating at least 7 1/2 minutes or even 7 1/2 seconds during the Benghazi attack? Was Mr. Teleprompter even there at all to provide any input possibly "sending in the cavalry"? Bracing for a cross-country campaign trip, did malingerer "That's Not What We Do" go to bed while brave Americans were savaged or is it indeed "an irrelevant fact" less important than raising funds in Las Vegas? If not, then be transparent enough to at least conduct a stand-up, man-up press conference detailing what you did do during the "acting stupidly" stand-down. The Sgt. Schultz "I know nothing!" ploy is as misguided as leftist community-organizing complicity in targeted attacks on law enforcement. Odds are he was tone deaf comparable to conducting five-year anniversary bank-default debacle of an event during the Navy Yard massacre in Building 197. If you can't be out campaigning to raise $197,000 or $197 million, then at least try to raise 197 political points.

Portraying the murderous attack in Benghazi, Libya, nine years ago as if it occurred in the same war as the Battle of the Bulge, it might have been old news to "stylistic" ex-Out House spokesperson Jay Blarney while the ex-TIME magazine Washington chief did his best zero-credibility imitation of Joseph Goebbels with a "hope and change (the topic)" routine hiding behind a phony scandal. Many of the same propagandists such as Jenny Sock-it-to-me got back in power in Bile-dumb Administration. A classic example of the blame game and absence of accountability occurred when the feds were more concerned with detaining some obscure producer of an anti-Islamic film making light of the prophet Mohammed and DOJ threatened undercover FBI informant with jail regarding uranium collusion scandal. At least the dereliction-of-duty dunderheads didn't pull out the workplace-violence or man-made disaster card again during this convenient-truth process.

Infected by pop culture, reality shows, Al Bore's global-warming/climate-change hoax, socialism sewage, acronym mafia (BLM/CDC/CNN/CRT/LGBTQ/MSNBC/WHO) and thrills going up noxious fake-newscasters legs, the average shallow American dwells on Confederate statues, Angelina Jolie's mammary glands, the Kardashians' cans, #ShrillaryRotten's incessant excuses, Melania's stilettos before DOJ "panty" raid of her wardrobe at Mar-a-lago (perhaps for "sniffing" party with hideous Hunter's creepy dad while on another beach vacation), forlorn Amanda Knox's knife collection, Hollyweird and Gitmo hunger strikers but can't spell Benghazi or even know which continent it's located. When not exploiting children as human shields for an assortment of altruistic motives, our previous POTUS didn't mind hiding behind Her Thighness' pants suit via a YouTube film fabrication as her State Department lawyer told witnesses not to speak to House investigators. If you had a family member in dire straits pleading for assistance, would you rather summon support from brave Barry, Plagiarist Bile-dumb, #ShrillaryRotten's truly deplorable hubris, Susan #DirtyRice, more scared Blinken than brave thinkin' State Department, anal Antifa anarchists or Tyrone Woods?

The major TV networks and two principal liberal rags (New York Slimes and Washington Compost) refused to give coverage to a Fox News report acknowledging the Obama Administration denied aid multiple times to Americans attacked and murdered by terrorists in Benghazi on September 11 of all days. If they withheld evidence (such as emails from the National Security Advisor's office telling a counter-terrorism unit to stand down), they're as corrupt in a cover-up as the administration's self-righteous Siskel & Ebert wannabees more concerned with monitoring content of "Bible-clinger" prayers, doctoring talking points, collective salvation promotion and muzzling Benghazi survivors (forced to sign non-disclosure agreements) than transparency with the public.

Why didn't the lapdog media do its job and press the Benghazi issue providing accountable answers to the many questions accruing about what precisely occurred in the Celebrity-in-Chief's chamber? Why does the vast majority of establishment media remain so disinterested in pursuing the litany of "jaw-dropping" misstatements and dissembling regarding what was known before and after the Benghazi horror while face-slapping Obama refers to incident as "conspiracy theory" on campaign trail?

What really happened during #ShrillaryRotten's sordid State Department regime? In an effort to help the buffoonish media shine the light of truth on the Benghazi bungling and scrubbed-a-dozen-times talking points, following are basic "who/what/when/why/where" questions for which the public still deserves answers via the president's acolytes:
* Who changed the original talking points and concocted "the (fanciful) spontaneous reaction" to a YouTube video explanation for the attack (framed before the final two deaths) and did the same individual help orchestrate a coordinated response at various venues in the days and weeks immediately following said attack?
* What portion of the entire 7 1/2 hours of the attack did POTUS himself spend in the Situation Room and was he directly involved with multiple "stand-down" orders while the attacks were in place? Perhaps he was too busy playing Spades again with body man Reggie Love.
* When precisely did previous POTUS and/or his national security staff first become aware that an attack was underway at the Benghazi compound? What happened at WH meeting with "key national security principals" the day before the attack? Was gathering as unseemly as J5 session only two weeks before Donald Trump's inauguration?
* Why was the Obama Administration's response so lax despite an unmanned drone providing real-time live video feed of the scene?
* Where is evidence of the "Betray Us" administration's responses to repeated pleas to strengthen security for Americans in Libya, not only from the State Department security chief and man on the ground in charge of security, but from the ambassador?

Did previous POTUS and his administration, amid their color-coordinated red line and yellow streak, do everything humanly possible before and during the attack to protect and help these heroes? The Drone Ranger could also have been asked what did give-me-a-break trusted "comrade" Clinton mean when the former Secretary of State callously said during testimony: "What difference does it make?" Insofar as she wasn't interviewed by the less-than-thorough accountability review board, the difference could be a little honesty with the country's citizens vs. cover-up deception with much of the misguided media serving as corrupt accomplices. In a twisted version of Obama "care," the #MessMedia seemed as careless in unearthing authentic autopsy results for a virtually defenseless Ambassador Stevens as the administration was in resolutely rendering justice to the incorrigible Islamic perpetrators.

The "buck" couldn't find any place to stop at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue during Obama's reign. Amid trying to discern his State Department protocol during an attack, there was a preposterous assertion from Defense Secretary Leon Panetta that "assets couldn't get there (Benghazi) in time." Did pandering Panetta also commiserate with an omniscient Eleanor regarding upper-brass orders to save Americans? How did he know with such authority the length of "time" the siege would take as they fought for their lives? Maybe he was too busy on other travel-time matters planning his next cross-country commute home to California at tax-payer expense on military jets. Did this leech-filled me-myself-and-I Obummer leadership just cut their losses and "run" (let them die) rather than risk additional casualties?

The mangy media seems to serve as little more than the Praetorian Guard for liberal lunacy smearing whistle-blowers crestfallen over the "abandoned" murders of innocent colleagues. Clinton's credibility should be in shambles, but the press pays lip service to taking her to task, allowing #QueenofDenial to weigh in with alleged expertise on Syria on the anniversary of the Benghazi bungling. But if you've got a moral compass at all on 9/11, ignore the hypocrites such as Shady Sanford (Is he in Appalachia or Argentina?) and invest your time, emotion, energy and devotion elsewhere. It's a time to "roll" with the families of Beamer and his courageous cohorts; not shill for #ShrillaryRotten and her contemptible "what-difference-does-it-make" cowardice. Do you aspire to affiliate with #MAGA "shining city on a hill" or unmask the "it-takes-a-village-idiot" crowd promoting climate-change claptrap from Al Bore-inspired Washington Compost that #TheDonald was complicit in humans creating more destructive hurricanes and fires?
