family members and friends on the ground and new planes were hijacked and they were one of them and they made the decision collectively in the words of todd beamer, let's roll and they took that plane down in a field of south central pennsylvania. many flights were empty. coast to coast flights early in the morning. not entirely empty but a lot of empty seats and there was room to move. beamer and bingham took advantage of that. morgan ortagus with us now. former state department spokesperson. how did 9/11 change you? >> i thought it would be an opera singer 22 years ago. i was a sophomore in college. i went on to serve in the intelligence community and military that i'm still in as a reservist and today i think of the past 22 years of what i just saw dan hoffman, a great colleague of mine on the show. so many of our friends. my identical twin sister, both my brother-in-laws, we have all served in either iraq or
7:08 am
afghanistan, my family multiple tours. then i think about all my friends with bronze stars and purple hearts today and what has been done over the past 22 years and thinking of those families of the fallen 13 we saw a couple weeks ago giving their testimony before congress and it's 22 years ago. so many of those families, their children were born before 9/11 or toddlers on 9/11 yet still gave up their life two years ago when we finally exited afghanistan. what i want everyone watching to know. if you lost a family member on 9/11 or in the last 22 years or two years ago, your child, your husband, your parents' sacrifice was not in vain. >> bill: thank you, morgan. thank you for your service. >> it's an honor to serve. >> thank you. >> dana: one other thing to point out about shanksville. guy benson is with us. your quick thought. when they were on the flight and they had that room to maneuver
7:09 am
partly because there was one terrorist left off that flight, they had time to take a vote. they took a vote before they did it, which i think was always such an american amazing thing to do. >> i remember the feeling of helplessness that day. the attack out of nowhere. people were shocked. no idea what was coming next. rolling thunder. is that an explosion, low flying airplanes? it was true victimhood. that was the first element in shanksville of the punch back. those men and women knew that the terrorists had a plan and they said we'll be damned if we let them carry it out. they took their fate in their own hands and they gave up their lives. >> dana: they wanted to get home to their families but willing to sacrifice and they did. thank you both for being here. morgan and guy, thank you. marc thiessen former speech
7:10 am
writer to president bush, fox news contributor. you cover niece every year and still as poignant as the first. >> 100%. i remember this day like it was yesterday. i was in the pentagon on september 11, 2001, a few corridors down from the point of impact but i felt the building shutter as the planes filled and smelled the folk that filled my office. evacuated the building and watched the building burning with my own eyes. for the next few weeks i was on the plane with secretary rumsfeld when he flew into afghanistan for the first time to bagram air base. an old soviet air base with ming fighters all over the place and planning the operation to take back kabul with the northern alliance. i saw a lot of this with my own eyes and it never had time to process it at the time because we turned around and back at
7:11 am
work the next day and we had to execute but it is always painful to watch and see these families who have lost so much. >> bill: mark, it's a stunning thing and an admission of sorts when you consider how divided this country is today. even prior to that beautiful tuesday morning of september 11, 2001, it wasn't that way then either, i don't think. that day brought people together in ways that -- it crystallizes when it means to be an american. we're all in this together. everybody is on the same team. let's figure out who is responsible and let's make sure they don't have a safe haven yet again so they can even consider such an attack again. 22 years later there is a schism
7:12 am
in our nation's politics and there is a schism in -- i don't want to go so far as to say the nation's soul, but our heart is struggling a little bit and i'm not quite sure how we come out on the other side of that, marc, or perhaps what heals that heart. >> some wounds never heal fully. the wounds of 9/11 never will for so many. i do remember that unity. i remember what it was like to have the whole country pulling together. it lasted for a while. the irony to me is it's -- it used to be a moment where people ought side their differences and came together as a country. the president who promised to unite us not there. i don't mind the fact he isn't there in a way. i say it with sadness because we
7:13 am
should respect the office regardless of the occupant but joe biden is the president who surrendered to the enemies who attacked us on september 11, 2001, and did so with dishonor because he left behind -- knowingly left behind american citizens in afghanistan after promising he wouldn't do it. he told the taliban offered to allow us to keep control of kabul and he decided to put the security of our men and women in uniform in the hands of the taliban and al qaeda. that resulted in the death of 13 americans. and then he lied to the american people repeatedly about it. he told them that no one was having trouble getting to the airport. none of his military commanders recommended a resillall force and an extraordinary success. so people looked at that and were horrified by it. so i have think a lot of the lack of unity we have today is from the fact that this has been
7:14 am
-- this moment is no longer uniting because we had this great defeat two years ago that we had to absorb and president biden, you know, he made the right decision to stay away. probably not for the right reasons but probably better he is not there. >> bill: in a press conference before he left in vietnam, we'll reflect on that coming up. thank you for your time here today. >> dana: peter doocy is live in hanoi, vietnam. peter, i guess you will make your way back later today. your reflections this morning. >> well, our focus the last couple days has been on president biden in south asia. when i asked the white house official why it is that president biden was here and missing the 9/11 commemorations at the attack site the analogy i was given in that 22 years after pearl harbor u.s. presidents were not still going to visit
7:15 am
hawaii. that's it. the whole point of this trip appeared to be countering china. everything that we were told ahead of it they were going to come to try to counter chinese influence in the region. but when we finally heard from president biden, he told us the exact opposite. >> president biden: this trip was about -- less than containing china. i don't want to contain china. we're not looking to hurt china. sincerely, we are all better off if china does well. i want to see china succeed economically. i want to see them succeed by the rules. >> so polite chat about china consumed the very short q and a which went 26 minutes until the press secretary announced off stage the event was over and music played the president off. >> president biden: i will take your questions. let me see. they gave me five people. i'm following my orders here.
7:16 am
staff, anybody have -- >> open to listen to what kind of questions the press corps might be shouting to him. he was determined at this event, the only open press opportunity for questions on this whole trip, he was determined not to deviate from the list of people that his staff had pre-selected. >> dana: pretty remarkable. peter doocy, thank you. >> traveled all the way around the world for five questions. back to ground 0, 9/11, 2023.

meet and our family misses you and we ask you to please continue watching over us. you will never be forgotten uncle nole. >> my uncle. richard michael. even though we never met, i always wonder how good of an uncle you would have been. i will always love you and always hold a special place in my heart. >> bill: those two young men met the moment. try to follow your example. a bit earlier we heard a comment we love you to the moon and back and every one of those salutations, dana, really just tugs at you and how could it not? we are coming up on another moment at 10:28 a.m. when the north tower collapses. >> dana: i have loved how they have the young people all connected in some way to people
7:28 am
they never met but they stand there side-by-side and bravely read those names and we really mean it when we say never forget. this moment of silence really takes that hour and a half, hour 45 minutes of that morning and puts a big exclamation point on it. here we go. [bell ringing] . [moment of silence]
7:29 am
. >> amy r. king. >> andrew m. king. >> lucille king. >> robert king junior. >> lisa king johnson. >> brian k. kinney. >> bill: remarkable how long it takes to get through so many names. trey gowdy joins our coverage now. trey, good morning to you. i don't know what you were doing 22 years ago, probably prosecuting somebody in south carolina. good morning to you and just a top line reflection as you
7:30 am
listen and watch. >> that's exactly where i was. i was in a murder trial. my wife's birthday is today. it was a big one for her. she turned 40 and we were in a pediatric cardologist's office with our first born child. so it was an unusual day and then driving to the courthouse is when it was almost apocalyptic. i did what many people do. i found the closest police officer i could and said what is going on? i remember the after math, bill. this unity that overcame our country that i mistakenly thought would last forever. and speaking of homicide cases, every one of these names that is called out, we hear the name and it takes less than a second but every one of those names is a life with hope and dreams and memories and friends. it is more than just a name. and great people can empathize even when we're not the victim. that is the hallmark of a good
7:31 am
person. can you empathize even though you did not suffer personal loss? great countries have long memories. i wonder how long our memory is when it comes to 9/11? >> dana: trey, then you went to congress and one of the things that you did was to try to fight for resources so that the war on terror could be prosecuted. it is a different way. the courtroom and the battlefield. there are still families who feel that they have not received the justice that they were looking for and they look to saudi arabia, for example. your thoughts on what sort of closure they could expect in the next few years. >> i was on the intelligence committee. i also investigated another incident where four people lost their lives. despite two years and unlimited budget, dana, we still didn't find out everything the victims' families wanted to know.
7:32 am
so there is this tension between wanting to know it all and then the government -- we presume for good reasons keeping certain things secret. if i lost someone on 9/11 i would think there is no good reason for keeping anything secret. if i were the president or the secretary of state i might have a different perspective but there are other ways to show unity. there is patience with one another. there is empathy. there is trying to put yourself in someone else's stead. i do remember in congress, dana, one of the more unifying days we had, all the members went to the steps of capitol and we sang a song and it was a prayer. i remember wondering why does it take a tragedy for us to feel like this? even now, even in the after math of tragedy, the unity is so fleeting. it may not last until sundown
7:33 am
nowadays. >> bill: fair point, trey. it is a nation divided in so many respects. when you are waking up today in the palmetto state, look, here in new york we can get in a car and go downtown and see this in the most intimate way. what are people in south carolina thinking there? >> well, i hope what they are thinking, bill. you have to force yourself to remember sometimes. it is not pleasant. we're wired to want to move on. that was an awful, awful day for our country. so we're wired to want a move on. we don't want to live in the slough of despond. but good people make themselves revisit unpleasant memories. we have our own national bethel. you go back to a place that has significance for you as a country. so we have to make ourselves
7:34 am
remember what we felt like in the after math. and that requires intentionality and purpose but that's what good people do. they make themselves go back to an unpleasant day so they can remember what they promised. we promised we would never forget. we promised we would hunt these people in the ends of the earth. i wonder if we've kept those two promises. some days i wonder. >> dana: trey, i think you speak with such a moral clarity for everyone. when we listen to you, it is a chance for us to reflect for our own personal thinking and as you think about these -- this presidential year to come, there is going to be what feels like a lot of disunity. there will be important discussions in the future about foreign policy. what would you advise candidates to be thinking about right now? >> that you may not want to be the world's police officer, but
7:35 am
the world needs a police officer. if it's not going to be you, who would you like it to be? i mean, i understand that we wish that we were not blessed with great resources and two oceans and really courageous people. we wish someone else would do it. but there is no other country that can do it, that is willing to do it. that has the moral clarity to do it. so i get that you want to just say let's rely on our oceans and friendly neighbors to the north and south and do our own thing. i don't want a leader that sits by and watches innocent people slaughtered. i don't want that from a leader. i want someone that has the moral clarity to say this is wrong, we have the power to stop it and we are going to stop it. so we'll see where the party is as a whole. we are flirting with isolationism. things go in cycles. i'm not an isolationist.
7:36 am
for those that want to stay stocked behind two oceans with friendly neighbors i won't be real enthusiastic about their candidacy. >> bill: so well stated. thank you for that and thank you for coming on today. you talk about the two oceans. that was shattered during pearl harbor, right, 1941 and shattered on september 11th in new york and the pentagon and south central pennsylvania. trey gowdy, thanks. in the meantime we have the names that continue to be read there in new york city and it will go on for some time. as we watch that, however, there is a story that's developing in morocco that is absolutely stunning. there is a search for survivors after this earthquake hit late on friday night. it leveled mountain villages and killed thousands. the government now working with aid organizations to bring a lot of relief and they need it quickly. trey yengst is on the ground in the atlas mountains of morocco
7:37 am
with more. what is it like around you, trey? hello. >> bill, good morning rescue efforts continue as the death toll is approaching 2500 people. today we visited a remote mountain village not yet reached by authorities. deep in the high atlas mountains villagers climb piles of rubble of their homes. mohammed digs through the debris where he recovered the body of his wife. today he is looking for his 9-year-old daughter. stone by stone and brick by brick his brothers and friends help to search for the girl. >> there was no way to safe them. i am burning from the inside. it feels like hell. >> his older daughter is inconsolable after losing her mother she lerpd her sister is gone as well. >> i called for my father. i thought he was dead as she recalls the earthquake.
7:38 am
i called for my mom and sisters. the roof collapsed on their heads. in the village here there is no heavy equipment. there are no soldiers. the first rescue team arrived this morning with nothing but stretchers and their bare hands. all that they have to save the living and recover the dead. people have been digging through the debris looking for loved ones since friday evening. the rubble is dense here. the entire village is destroyed. there is the smell of death in the air. there are bodies under the rubble but these people are not giving up. they know that the military and government cannot reach this area. they will have to do it themselves. we saw where villagers created a mass grave for the victims of this earthquake. many fear the possibility of after shocks. >> bill: it is remarkable to see those scenes. trey, thank you. we'll be back with you throughout the day and hopefully report on progress there. from the atlas mountains in
7:39 am
morocco, thanks. >> dana: new york city and the rest of the country mark 22 years since 9/11. the names continue to be read and our coverage continues. >> jorge leon senior. >> matthew g. leonard. can be expensive. with an affordable home loan from newday, you can pay cash and own the car or truck of your dreams. teeth sensitivity is so common. it immediately feels like somebody's poking directly on the nerve. i recommend sensodyne. sensodyne toothpaste goes inside the tooth and calms the nerve down. and my patents say: “you know doc, it really works." having diabetes can raise a lot of questions. like my morning ride, will it help lower my glucose? with the freestyle libre 2 system, you can know where your glucose level is and where it's headed without fingersticks. know what activities work for you.

7:45 am
over the weekend. some argue the real competition was not on the field, however, at the tailgate parties in the stands in iowa with several presidential candidates showing up to connect with voters in that state. mark meredith is in washington. you were tracking it. how did it go and how were they received? hello. >> good morning to you. you are right. plenty of cheers and boos. as you hinted, the best drama was off the field. over the weekend both former president trump and florida governor ron desantis at the iowa/iowa state game. trump stopped by a fraternity house, desantis seen inside the stadium watching the game with iowa governor kim reynolds. he would consider her as a potential running mate. mike pence is holding multiple events in iowa. within the hour he attended a 9/11 ceremony outside des moines and scheduled to be in the hawkeye state through wednesday. the debate is two weeks away. for democrats the lack of

7:47 am
have come to a close, but we remain relentlessly focused on combating think of the threats to america. >> dana: over two decades since america launched the war on terror striking a major blow to al qaeda and taliban in afghanistan. the work of those brave american soldiers now erased after president biden's botched withdrawal from the region. taliban back to power seizing billions dollars worth of american weapons left behind. joey jones joins us now. you were one of those brave people and courageous people who signed up to serve. i love how you always say that just be a country worth serving and sacrificing for. today is a good day to reflect on that. to get your thoughts this morning, joey, from a broad perspective as you continue to deal with injuries and sacrifice but also live a full life with family and a farm and a great
7:48 am
career. >> i need to get some animals for this farm, i guess. listen, today is the day where we sit back and for someone like me who went to war i get mad and so angry listening to "fox & friends" this morning and the tape recordings and conversation and hearing the stories i'm filled with anger. i hate that but it is who i am. i wish i could go back to afghanistan and settle the score more. that's not my fate. it's not our country's fate. we spent 20 years there. you think we would have settled the score. our enemy is in control of afghanistan and our president says they are upholding their end of the bargain in some weird partnership he seems to exist in his head. those are the things that bother me most. last week i was on a hunting trip in maine with three afghanistan veterans. what bothered me most. two of us were injured. the other two are hurt to this day. they struggle with what they had to go through bringing their buddies home in bags and the true atrocity of war.
7:49 am
those are lives lost as a result of 9/11. all i want is for our leaders to honor what happened that day to those innocent civilians and honor the heroes that left their home to go down the block to save lives and honor the men and women to join the service. i raised my right hand because of what happened on 9/11. i want honor within those that lead us. you don't see it. everywhere i look at our military and political leaders and saying what are they doing to accept accountability for what happened two years ago and doing to accept accountability for what happened over the last two decades? it isn't there. >> bill: that's so strong. you have this for the u.n. sanctions monitoring team in afghanistan. this is not going the make you feel better, either. saying a range of terrorist groups have greater freedom of maneuver under the taliban authorities, threat of terrorism is rising in afghanistan and the region. you this i about somalia, northern africa, etc. think about our southern border,
7:50 am
joey. in the past 11 months we've had 142 apprehensions of those on the no fly list and your imagination runs wild for those able to allude capture and come across the border. how many we don't know. you come to new york and spend time with us and check at the airport for security and you see the massive pieces of machinery there to make sure that you don't get a water bottle on that airplane. and yet it is very possible that those who want to cause the next attack are able to allude capture on our southwest border. >> yes, troublesome to think the run result of 9/11 is so specific that maybe they couldn't use a plane again. but then you think what other options are there? what else could they do? when i used to take bombs apart we would say a bomb's composure, what it was made up was limited to the creativity.
7:51 am
bomb maker. you can blow something up with it. that's the mentality of many men and women protecting our country. is it something they are allowed to pursued and our government supports? you think about the holocaust and the type of intelligence and the type of courage it took to hide people that were persecuted to get them to other countries and get them out of the country. the type of human intelligence to win world war ii is phenomenal with the lack of technology. here we have all the technology we could have ever had and we say we can't monitor afghanistan because our president doesn't want the posture or optics of being at war there. i think that as an american people we can say we don't want to be at war but also say we support not going to war. in other words, we support the type of efforts and positioning it takes so that it doesn't happen. >> dana: to prevent one. >> it's not too much to ask from our government. >> bill: thank you for your service and your sacrifice. it is phenomenal. >> dana: excited to see you when
7:52 am
you are back in new york. >> see you soon. >> bill: thanks. there are organizations all across this country but perhaps one that has risen above all others. a man by the name of frank siller had an idea to take care of firefighters called tunnel to towers and their legacy continues to grow by the week. frank is on set with us next. >> michael masarli. >> rudy mastrsika. >> charles william mathers. here's great news. at newday we've been granted automatic authority by the va to make our own loan approval decisions. in fact, if you've had credit challenges and missed a payment along the way, you're more than five times more likely to get approved for the newday 100 va cash out loan.

7:57 am
you have a big deal going on. give us the news. >> it's a very sad day. 22 years later. i miss my brother as much as i did the day after and -- but we made a decision that on this day we want to try to make it a good day, a day that you will never stop the grieving but let's do something positive and beautiful on this day. we're paying off 22 mortgages in honor of the 22nd anniversary for first responders who died in the line of duty protecting us. >> dana: what a relief that gives to people. >> it does. we'll do over 200 mortgage-free homes this year. incredible the work we've been able to do. i want to make it clear to your viewers, we never started out to do all this work to tunnel to towers. we wanted to honor our little brother. he was orphaned when he was ten
7:58 am
years old. when we found out he died let's honor him and the sacrifice and what he did. to be able to do the work in his honor and memory is something we're very proud of. he is the reason. he is the reason that we're doing all this beautiful work. >> bill: t2t.org, sign up. >> i don't talk about money on this day. but i will say that people -- some people have joined us on our mission to take care of all these great families. we know it is not over. we know it's not over. >> bill: frank, i appreciate the level of humility there but you set out to take care of 343 families of firefighters who died that day. and within a year your mission was to raise a million dollars for every family and you got it done. and then you had this huge
7:59 am
