Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson has announced that there may be new congressional hearings on the September 11, 2001 attacks – and believes there are still a number of unanswered questions about the official story and the inadequacies of the investigations conducted so far.
Johnson points out, for example, that Building 7 could only have been destroyed by an explosion and argues that crucial evidence was hidden or destroyed.
According to the official story, al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four passenger planes and crashed two of them into the World Trade Center towers in Manhattan – while a third hit the Pentagon and the fourth crashed in a field in Pennsylvania.
Many have noted that the World Trade Center's Building 7 also collapsed and disintegrated into dust – despite not being hit by any aircraft. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the explanation is that the building was ignited by fires caused by debris from one of the nearby towers, an explanation that many independent investigators have found to be unreasonable.
However, in an interview with American political commentator Benny Johnson, the senator questions this explanation, pointing out that it was apparently a controlled demolition that led to the collapse of the 47-storey building.
– Well, let's start with Building 7. Again, I don't know that you can find structural engineers other than the ones that have the corrupt investigation inside NIST that would say that that thing didn't come down in any other way than a controlled demolition.
– You talk about molten steel. Again, you listen to the documentary Bravo 7. There's an awful lot of questions. Who ordered the removal and the destruction of all that evidence? Totally contrary to any other firefighting investigation procedures. I mean, who ordered that? asks Ron Johnson.
Senator Ron Johnson drops BOMBSHELL:
Tells us that 9/11 Hearings are being planned, Building 7 was potentially a "Controlled Demolition"

"An awful lot being covered up"
The senator also points out that important documentation from the investigation has disappeared without a trace and that he has spoken to other politicians who also want to see a new and more thorough investigation.
– Now, there are a host of questions that I want, and I will be asking, quite honestly, now that my eyes have been opened up.
Jonson also says that a number of family members of the victims have contacted him and are insisting that the unredacted FBI files related to the investigation be made public. He hopes that the Trump administration will be more willing than previous administrations to get answers and relevant documents to the families - and Johnson points out that Trump should have some self-interest in the matter, as he is from New York.
– What actually happened in 9-11? What do we know? What is being covered up? My guess is there's an awful lot being covered up in terms of what the American government knows about 9/11.
Independent experts: controlled demolition
Back in 2016, independent experts published an extensive article in the prestigious physics publication Europhysics News, stating that the evidence for the official version, that the buildings collapsed by themselves, is simply not true. Instead, they point out that it is much more likely that controlled demolitions caused the buildings to collapse.
