David Beamer, the father of 9/11 Flight 93 hero Todd Beamer, called on Michigan to “vote American this time,” warning that he believes Democratic socialists pose an existential threat to the nation.

Speaking on “America’s Newsroom,” Tuesday, Beamer compared voting in the upcoming election to defending the country, calling on voters to reject what he described as radical agendas.

“These Democratic socialists are really more closely aligned with domestic terrorists than with our way of life,” Beamer said.

“The good news is, their weapon of choice is not a bomb or turning an airplane into a guided missile. Their weapon of choice is a ballot,” he added.

Beamer’s son Todd was among the passengers who fought back against the hijackers on September 11th, 2001, rallying fellow passengers to storm the cockpit of United Airlines Flight 93. The plane crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, killing everyone on board, but the passengers’ actions prevented the hijackers from reaching their intended target in Washington, D.C.

“I’m [going to] vote against those that want to destroy America. I’m [going to] vote for an American, a real Michigan man. His name happens to be Mike Rogers. I want everybody across all the platforms, Democrat, independent, Republican, vote American this time. Don’t vote for those who are set about to destroy our [freedoms],” Beamer said.

El-Sayed has faced criticism from Rogers over past comments he made regarding the 9/11 terrorist attacks in now-deleted social media posts.

“Today, I mourn the 3K lives, 6K injuries, & infrastructural devastation in NYC, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my faith. Tomorrow, I’ll mourn ~1M lives, millions of injuries, & infrastructural devastation in 3 countries, perpetuated ignorantly in the name of my country,” he wrote in a 2021 post first reported by the Washington Free Beacon.

Beamer drew a comparison between the 9/11 attacks and the upcoming election, warning that while the nation was caught unprepared on 9/11, voters today cannot afford to be surprised.

“The other thing that I reflect on about 9/11, that was a surprise attack. We didn’t see it coming. We weren’t prepared,” Beamer said. “Some, like Todd, had to go to battle that day. Others had to rush into buildings to try and save people. We weren’t ready for that attack.”

Beamer argued that the threats facing the country have evolved and now include adversaries operating from within. “Our enemies haven’t gone away,” he said. “They identify themselves as Democratic socialists. Their platform is one that aims to destroy all the values and the foundations of this country that we’ve enjoyed for hundreds of years.”

“Well, the good news is, in this upcoming attack, and we know when it starts, early voting starts in a few weeks. That’s when this battle begins. We all have the same weapon. I’ve got a ballot,” Beamer concluded.
