1. Just say "nine eleven".

2. Edit out means to remove certain text from a document. This removal of text could be for various reasons such as security, vulgarity, cautionary notes, etc.

3. Lean on means to exert pressure on someone to influence their thinking. We could change this sentence to read:
"Someone must have used their powerful influence to cause the EPA to make false statements".
