“BREATHING FELT LIKE I WAS SWALLOWING RAZOR BLADES"
NIELS JORGENSEN, SEPTEMBER 11, 2001
A day that forever changed the course of American history- September 11th, 2001.
This week on the Code Red Podcast, 22-year FDNY fireman Niels Jorgensen gives a powerful first-hand account of the Ground Zero rescue and recovery mission that cost many Americans their lives due to exposure to toxins in the air.
THE FIGHT DID NOT STOP ON SEPTEMBER 11TH. After barely escaping with his life, Niels Jorgensen was told by his doctor that he would suffer and most-likely die from cancer set on by his exposure to toxins in the air on Ground Zero.
WHILE NELS IS IN FULL REMISSION, THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO DIED FROM CANCERS DUE TO THE WRECKAGE HAS NOW OFFICIALLY PASSED THE TOTAL NUMBER OF DEATHS ON SEPTEMBER 11TH.
Since his retirement, Niels has dedicated his life to telling the stories of survivors who were impacted by this horrific event. His 20 for 20 Project is a podcast dedicated to telling the stories of 20 survivors of the 9/11 attack.
Niels also addresses the disheartening truth that in most school districts, there is no formal curriculum to teach 9/11 history, and in some districts the history has been considered xenophobic and racist.
We hope you will tune in, and if you enjoy the episode we would really appreciate it if you would share with one other person who might be interested. ----------------------------------------------

In Dearborn, Michigan, the crowds gathered in the streets and screamed Death to America. This did not happen in Tehran. This did not happen in Beirut. It happened in Michigan, inside the United States.
The monitoring cameras inside Iran's most fortified nuclear facilities just went dark. The IAEA has been locked out. And from 60% enriched uranium to a bomb… it's now a matter of days. But while the world watches the Middle East, a completely different kind of threat is already operating inside American cities. In this episode, Sam Westrop of the Middle East Forum breaks down the architecture of the Red-Green Alliance, a tactical partnership between the radical left and Islamist extremist networks targeting American sovereignty from the inside out. We examine the river of money flowing through U.S.-based front charities, the municipal capture happening in Michigan, and what Maximum Pressure 2.0 actually needs to look like.
In this episode, we break down the DHS funding fight, what’s really at stake, who’s sabotaging border enforcement, and why bureaucrats and radical politicians would rather protect sanctuary policies than protect American families. We explain how funding battles directly impact border security, ICE enforcement, deportations, and national safety, and why every delay is a win for cartels, traffickers, and criminals—and a loss for law-abiding Americans. If you care about law and order, American sovereignty, and putting citizens first, this episode is required listening.
Homeland security is facing a critical funding deadline. While most of the federal government received full-year funding, the Department of Homeland Security was left on temporary funding set to expire February 13. That instability affects law enforcement, disaster response, counterterrorism, and maritime security. In this Code Red episode, we break down what DHS does, why temporary funding weakens public safety, and why Americans must speak up now. 👉 Take action. Contact Congress and demand full DHS funding before the deadline.
