00:00The CIA knew two of the 9-11 hijackers were in the United States.
00:05They weren't hiding.
00:06They were living openly in San Diego, one with his name in the phone book.
00:11So when an FBI agent tried to sound the alarm, why was he ordered to stand down?
00:18That's the explosive allegation at the heart of Tucker Carlson's new documentary, The 9-11 Files.
00:24For over two decades, the story we've been told is one of incompetence, a failure to connect the dots.
00:31But this series argues it wasn't a failure, it was active obstruction.
00:36The documentary presents a terrifying theory.
00:40The CIA wasn't just watching the hijackers, it was trying to recruit them as double agents.
00:46If true, it was a high-stakes gamble that required keeping the FBI out of the loop.
00:52Making matters worse, the hijackers were living with an active FBI informant.
00:58The documentary posits this wasn't just a failure to communicate,
01:02it was a turf war that spiraled out of control and ended with nearly 3,000 dead.
