    "A Metro Times review of congressional records found nine separate votes or legislative actions between 2003 and 2010 in which Rogers opposed, tried to block, or sought to restrict federal health care funding for 9/11 responders, seven more than previously reported."

  7. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

    THE BAD GUYS ARE NOT THE PEOPLE WHO PUT 355 BULLETS INTO A FIVE-YEAR-OLD GIRL.

    THE REAL VILLAIN IS THE RAPPER WHO MADE A SONG REMINDING YOU ABOUT IT.

  8. September 11, 2001 — September 11, 2026

    Twenty-five years later, remembrance is not about looking backward.

    It is about remembering what was lost, honoring those who carried us forward, and protecting what unites us.

  9. @samiamsam

    I remember that chunk of 'living in America' too, from the peaceful days of childhood through Vietnam - Hippies/Woodstock gen into post-war divisions and a string of political dramas.

    Into a new era of #wars, no, that's #skirmish with a side of #WarCrimes #Wordsalad and #TrumpVirus #gaslighting and #sanewashing.

  10. @dotsonapage Well that's awesome, but the other side needs to be reminded that hey you fucked with our security etc. And we'll never forget. I hope KSM hangs in Tmes Squaree after his tryal in 2028. #neverforget

  11. We join our neighbours in remembering the victims, survivors, heroes, and all those impacted by the events of September 11, 2001.

    We will #NeverForget.

  12. @inkican somehow it is hard to believe that people still believe #EvilElon will honor his promises.
    Can't wait for the #hyperloop to finally solve all our transportation problems.😂

  13. a summary of what I saw on that day, now 25 years ago - I wrote this a number years back as part of the exercise to "never forget":
    It was a typical weekday morning, waking up a bit before 9:00am to get to work by 10:00am. I was living in a room on the top floor of a 3 story loft in Greenpoint Brooklyn that I shared with a bunch of others. One of my room mates walked in to the kitchen where I was making my morning coffee and said with some urgency to come up to the roof because the Twin Towers were on fire and then walked back out. I thought he was just trying to play a practical joke so I just blew him off…
    – but then he came down again and I realized he was serious. Climbed the stairs and walked out onto the roof to come out into a beautiful incredibly clear day – warm and sunny with maybe just a single cloud in the sky. Looking South across the East River the familiar site of the Twin Towers – except with very unfamiliar jagged holes in each billowing flames and black smoke. I stood transfixed watching this as other room mates came up, wondering how this could be possible. I remember wondering why the NYC didn't have any helicopters capable of dropping water the way they do for forest fires mobilized. My room mate Keith came back up with his binoculars and we passed them back and forth to look closer at the gashing wounds in the building. Another room mate came up after having gone to check the news and said it looked like planes had crashed into the buildings and that it was an act of terrorism. Suddenly without warning the 1st tower started exploding from the top down and collapsed in seconds - and as it did an involuntary laugh of utter disbelief and confusion came out of my throat. Keith looked at me reaproachingly for this laugh and said that thousands had probably just died in that building. We kept watching in silence and then I said with some conviction that there was no way that the second building would collapse like the first just had. Yet soon after it too followed with a similar near free fall collapse. At this point my mind was in a weird place – both numb and racing. I went downstairs and watched the ramblings of the news for a few minutes – and despite my desire to just sit and watch the television decided to actually go in to work. Since the subway had been closed I found myself walking across the bridge into Queens with numerous others. At the time I was working as the production manager for the vinyl record pressing department of a CD/record factory. After the 30 minute walk I got in, quickly met with my bosses, and told the guys in my crew to just stop the presses and go home (which they had already taken it upon themselves to do without needing me to tell them) since the public transportation had all been stopped. I talked nervously with some co-workers for a few minutes, and then started back on the walk home – for which there were hundreds out on in the streets with me. The sun was still shining brightly and it was at what most would say was a perfect temperature – and there was a cloud of dust off in the distance.

  15. This is my 3rd attempt at this post, each time it didn't come out right.

    Today is the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on United States soil. Its almost hard to remember what things were like before. I was 21 when the attack happened. I've lived through so much since then, and still that day, and the days that followed, feel fresh in my mind.

    I've had a lot to do today, including a live stream for work, and in the back of my head all day so far has been memories of 9/11. I didn't lose anyone that day, thankfully. I live about 120 miles from the city, and a lot of people in my area, especially at the time, commuted into NYC for their day jobs. One of them was a guy I knew from a jeep forum, Pete. He worked in the towers, and that day a late train made him miss being IN the towers when they were hit. He spent the weeks that followed, after his livelihood was literally rubble, helping in rescue efforts at the site where the towers once stood. He died years later from whatever got into his lungs then.

    I think what's nagging at me today, is not just what happened on 9/11, but what happened right after. We as Americans stood together. All of us unsure what might come next, all of us thinking about loved ones, loss, and patriotism. For a few days there, we weren't divided by race, creed, or social standing. We were Americans. That unfortunately faded quickly. And today we're more divided than ever. Partly due to things put in motion 25 years ago in response to this tragic attack on freedom.

    I don't know what I'm trying to say here, just that i felt compelled to say it. Folks, if you were alive on 9/11/2001, and old enough to remember it. Tell someone who wasn't about it. We all said we wouldn't forget, and i don't think we did, but the problem is we've held on to the hatred, not the sense of Unity we all had on 9/12/2001.
