The mid-air collision over the Potomac River that led to the deaths of 67 people, 64 people on the jet and three on the helicopter, was caused by pilot error an initial NTSB report claims. The report cites the altitude of the helicopter, which was at 300 feet, 100 feet over the 200 feet limit.

Video of the crash leaked by airport workers shows the helicopter appears to have had plenty of time to see the plane and get out of the way. The airport workers were arrested. The pilot is Rebecca Lobach, whose social media presence appears to have been scrubbed before her name was released. Her family, reportedly, was worried she would be called a DEI hire.

NTSB Update Confirms Black Hawk Helicopter Made Crucial Error Before Plane Crash– www.westernjournal.com

Excerpt:

The National Transportation Safety Board released an update on Tuesday informing the public that the Black Hawk helicopter that collided with an American Airlines plane in Washington, D.C., last week was flying too high at the time of the crash.

The agency found that the Black Hawk was positioned at 300 feet on the air traffic control display.

That is 100 feet higher than the ceiling of 200 feet for helicopters in the National Capital Region, according to a report from Fox News.

The report confirms earlier analysis of the crash, including from President Donald Trump, who wrote in a post on Truth Social that the “helicopter was flying too high, by a lot. It was far above the 200 foot limit.”

But it leaves key questions unanswered, particularly the cause of the error: Malfunctioning equipment? A mistake by the pilot? Some other reason?

The NTSB also recovered various parts of the Bombardier CRJ700 operated by American Airlines from the Potomac River.

The parts include the “right wing, center fuselage, part of the left wing and left fuselage, significant portions of the forward cabin and cockpit, vertical and horizontal stabilizers, tail cone, rudder, elevators, TCAS computer and quick access recorder.”

But he said that the American commercial air travel system remains safe.

“We have the safest skies in the whole world. Traveling by air is the safest mode of transportation,” Duffy said.

“It’s not just air traffic controllers, but we do have technologies on airplanes to keep them separated,” he added. “So, yeah, no, this is the safest system.”

Duffy also criticized the diversity hiring that has occurred for air traffic controllers and said that the country should instead focus on hiring the most qualified candidates.

“You can’t focus on diversity, equity and inclusion when you try to hire air traffic controllers. You focus on the best and brightest,” Duffy added.

“I mean, again, some people like me like to have this conversation around equity. But if it’s your pilots or if it’s your air traffic controllers, you want the best. You want the brightest protecting yourself and your family. That’s what we’re going to do with the department.”

President Joe Biden has declared numerous times that he knew nothing about Hunter Biden’s foreign businesses, nor did he ever meet with his business partners. Now, photographs obtained by American First Legal (AFL) have revealed the truth, Joe Biden is lying.

Photographs show the then-Vice-President Joe Biden on a visit to China introducing Hunter to Chairman Xi and other top-ranked CCP party members, which include Hunter Biden’s future business partners. The meetings and the photos happened during Biden’s 2013 official Beijing, China trip.

Newly released photographs obtained by America First Legal (AFL) have reignited scrutiny over President Joe Biden’s connections to Hunter Biden’s Chinese business dealings. The images, obtained through AFL’s lawsuit against the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), appear to show then-Vice President Joe Biden meeting with Hunter’s Chinese business associates, including key figures tied to the Chinese government.

The photos, which AFL shared on social media today, include Joe Biden introducing Hunter and his associate to Chinese President Xi Jinping during an official 2013 trip to Beijing. This trip, initially billed as a diplomatic mission, is now under a magnifying glass as questions swirl about whether Joe Biden leveraged his political position to benefit Hunter’s business ventures.

The images reportedly capture meetings between Joe Biden and executives from BHR Partners, a private equity firm co-founded by Hunter Biden. According to AFL, the photographs also corroborate findings from the House Oversight Committee, which earlier this year revealed that Hunter Biden facilitated introductions between his father and BHR executives, including CEO Jonathan Li and Managing Partner Ming Xue.

A new poll from Napolitan News Service shows a majority of Americans support deportation, with 31 percent strongly supporting it.

Excerpt:

A new poll finds that a majority of Americans support Donald Trump’s plan to declare a border emergency and to begin deporting millions of illegal aliens.

This is exactly what the 2024 election proved when Trump won in a landslide with border issues being his top concern.

Per Just the News:

The Napolitan News Service survey of 1,000 registered voters was conducted online by pollster Scott Rasmussen Nov. 18-19. It asked: “President Trump has said that he will declare a national emergency because of the illegal immigration problem. This would let the Trump Administration use military force to help with a mass deportation of illegal immigrants. Do you favor or oppose declaring a national emergency to address the problem of illegal immigration?”

In response, 31% of those polled said they strongly favor declaring a national emergency, and 24% said they somewhat favor it. Combined, 55% of Americans support Trump’s plan. Those in favor include 62% of Hispanic voters, 57% of white voters, and 50% of Black voters.

 

ICC Issues Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant over Gaza War– www.breitbart.com

Excerpt:

The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants on Thursday for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant for supposed war crimes committed in Gaza.

ICC prosecutor Karim Khan, who faces sexual misconduct allegations, brought the application for the warrants earlier this year, along with applications for warrants against Palestinian terrorists, all of whom have since been killed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

The Times of Israel reported:

In a massive legal bombshell, the International Criminal Court issues arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant, the first time the court has ever issued such warrants against leaders of a democratic country.

The three judges of the ICC’s Pre-Trial Chamber I issue the warrants unanimously on charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes that the court’s prosecutor Karim Khan alleges were committed during the prosecution of the current war against Hamas in Gaza.

Both Netanyahu and Gallant will be liable for arrest if they travel to any of the more than 120 countries that are party to the ICC.

Possible genocidal maniac and Covid-19 mRNA Vaccine proponent Bill Gates has called on himself and fellow globalists to form a “new religion” that would keep humans occupied after AI allegedly takes over their jobs. He made these statements on the “Possible” podcast that is co-hosted by LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman.

Gates said “The potential positive path is so good that it will force us to rethink how should we use our time. You know, you can almost call it a new religion or a new philosophy of, okay, how do we stay connected with each other, not addicted to these things that’ll make video games look like nothing in terms of the attractiveness of spending time on them.”

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has called on globalists to create a “new religion” to keep humans occupied in the AI-dominated near future.

According to Gates, members of the general public will soon have a lot of time on their hands when machines have replaced them in the workplace, “if all goes well,”

Gates argues that artificial intelligence will ensure that alleged issues such as “disease and enough food or climate” will be “solved problems.”

Because humans will have extra free time, Gates is calling on globalists to consider “how do we take advantage of that?”

According to Gates, giving the public “a new religion or a new philosophy” is the answer.

Kamala Harris was interrupted at her Wisconsin rally recently by someone who shouted in response to her comments on abortion “Jesus is Lord” and “Christ is King.” Kamala appeared to take offense at the mentioning of the name of Christ, firing back “Oh, I think you’re at the wrong rally.”

She added to her blasphemy by lying when she claimed, “I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.” Some Christians cite 2 Kings Chapter 19, where the Assyrian King Sennacherib had laid siege to Jerusalem, taunting God as he went, for which he would see his army smitten by the angel of the Lord (Christ to some). The two students, Grant Beth and Luke Polaske, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Juniors, said of their overall experience in the House of Harris:

Beth – “I was pushed by an elderly woman. We were heckled at, we were cursed at, we were mocked, and that’s the biggest thing for me personally. In reflection of the event, Jesus was mocked. You know, his disciples were mocked, and that’s OK.”

Polaske – “In reality, we did God’s work, and we were there for the right reasons, and God is watching us in this moment. I’m all about being a cordial person no matter your beliefs, but I do believe that we were sent there by God.”

Two Christian students Kamala Harris told were at the “wrong rally” spoke out about their experience at the Wisconsin event.

Grant Beth and Luke Polaske, both juniors at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, said Harris’ response to “Christ is king” and “Jesus is Lord” was insulting.

Here’s the clip:

From the New York Post:

Grant Beth and Luke Polaske, both juniors at the school, told “Fox & Friends Weekend” that they felt persecuted akin to Jesus and his early followers after they shouted such things as “Christ is King!” when the Democratic vice president and presidential candidate started talking about abortion rights.

One of them said Harris even sarcastically waved to him and gave him “an evil smirk” as he held up the cross around his neck and pointed to her while being booted with his pal.

“I was pushed by an elderly woman. We were heckled at, we were cursed at, we were mocked, and that’s the biggest thing for me personally,” Beth said. “In reflection of the event, Jesus was mocked. You know, his disciples were mocked, and that’s OK.

“In reality, we did God’s work, and we were there for the right reasons, and God is watching us in this moment,” he said. “I’m all about being a cordial person no matter your beliefs, but I do believe that we were sent there by God.”

The pair were shouting, “Christ is King!” and “Jesus is Lord!” while getting shoved by some of the rally-goers.

Kamala Harris Made It Clear to Christians She Doesn’t Want Your Vote– www.lifenews.com

Excerpt:

The Joe Biden-Kamala Harris regime in Washington repeatedly has attacked people of faith in America, a nation founded on the morals of the Judeo-Christian community.

They’ve described conservative Catholic groups, parents concerned about radical leftist indoctrination in public schools and pro-life adherents as possible terrorists. They’ve sent grandmothers to prison for opposing abortion with their actions.

They’ve tried to force all doctors, including those with moral objections to killing unborn children, into the nation’s massive abortion industry. They want taxpayers to fund the industry of death, where the intention is that one of every two patients ends up dead.

Religious objections to taking an experimental COVID vax? You’re fired! Same if you don’t abide by the extremist LGBT ideology that men can suddenly become women, just by saying so.

And worse.

Now a report cites recent anti-Christian comments from Harris as offering the potential for long term, and negative, effects for the Democratic Party.

CatholicVote charged, “Kamala Harris exposes her vile hatred toward Christians once again by ridiculing a rallygoer for invoking the name of God.”

Two documents were leaked to Iran that expose in whole or in part Israel’s plans for retaliation following Iran’s recent missile barrage of the country. The Pentagon has stressed that no employee in the Defense Department is under suspicion at present. The leak critically undermines America’s trustworthiness not just with Israel, but with the rest of the world.

President Donald Trump believes the leaker is coming from within, as do most other people not existentially committed to the social experiment that is the DNC-CCP agenda.

Trump said, “They leaked all the information about the way that Israel’s going to fight and how they are going to fight and where they are going to go. And somebody — who did that? Can you imagine somebody doing that? That’s the enemy. I guess that maybe is the enemy from within, as I talked about. We have an enemy from within. They hate to talk about it. Can you imagine? So we just can’t stand for this incompetence anymore.”

Excerpt:

The United States is investigating an unauthorized release of classified documents that assess Israel’s plans to attack Iran, three U.S. officials told The Associated Press. A fourth U.S. official said the documents appear to be legitimate.

The documents are attributed to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and National Security Agency, and note that Israel was still moving military assets in place to conduct a military strike in response to Iran’s blistering ballistic missile attack on Oct. 1. They were sharable within the “Five Eyes,” which are the U.S., Great Britain, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

The documents, which are marked top secret, were posted to the Telegram messaging app and first reported Saturday by CNN and Axios. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

The investigation is also examining how the documents were obtained — including whether it was an intentional leak by a member of the U.S. intelligence community or obtained by another method, like a hack — and whether any other intelligence information was compromised, one of the officials said. As part of that investigation, officials are working to determine who had access to the documents before they were posted, the official said.

Trump suggests ‘enemy from within’ is responsible for Israel leak– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

Former President Donald Trump used his “enemies from within” line to suggest that Americans were responsible for a classified documents leak.

Trump claimed without evidence that an “enemy from within” leaked highly classified U.S. intelligence documents involving Israel. The FBI is investigating the incident.

“They leaked all the information about the way that Israel’s going to fight and how they are going to fight and where they are going to go. And somebody — who did that? Can you imagine somebody doing that? That’s the enemy. I guess that maybe is the enemy from within, as I talked about,” Trump said at an event focused on Latino leaders Tuesday.

“We have an enemy from within,” Trump continued, adding, “They hate to talk about it. Can you imagine? So we just can’t stand for this incompetence anymore.”

White House officials have said it has not been determined yet whether the documents were leaked or hacked, but they said they do not expect additional leaks. The documents in question were each dated Oct. 15 and Oct. 16, purportedly from U.S. government agencies, including the National Security Agency and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Their contents focused on Israel’s expected retaliatory attack against Iran.

While it is unclear exactly who “they” Trump is referring to, he did reaffirm that his “enemies from within” line is, in fact, referring to his political opponents. When asked on Fox News to clarify his comments about using law enforcement or the military against those who disagree with him, Trump confirmed he was talking about former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

“What they’ve done is so terrible. Who’s ever heard of anything like this? Adam shifty Schiff. He’s a crooked guy. He’s a crooked politician. 100% he’s going to be a senator,” Trump said on Sunday. “Of course, he’s an enemy. He’s an enemy. He wanted to put my son in jail.”

“We have a lot of bad people. But when you look at Shifty Schiff and some of the others, yeah, they are, to me, the enemy from within. I think Nancy Pelosi is an enemy from within. She lied,” Trump continued.

It seems the Biden-Harris administration has made America a safe space for at least one of her sworn existential enemies, the Chinese Communist Party. A report from the Subcommittee on Counterterrorism, Law Enforcement, and Intelligence claims “CCP-related espionage and acts of transnational repression” have spiked under the Biden-Harris administration’s watch.

Homeland Security Committee Chair Mark Green (R-TN) said in the report, “Beijing has continually encroached upon American sovereignty to spy, intimidate, and harass not only defectors, but even American citizens. It is important we remain clear-eyed about the threat the CCP poses to the security of the American people so we are prepared to counter its malign influence at every turn.”

CCP Spying ‘Expanded Rapidly’ Under Biden-Harris– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

Chinese Communist Party (CCP) spying in the United States “expanded rapidly” under the Biden-Harris administration’s watch, according to a congressional report released Thursday.

Published by the House Homeland Security Committee’s House Committee On Homeland Security’s Subcommittee On Counterterrorism, Law Enforcement, And Intelligence, the assessment details how cases of “CCP-related espionage and acts of transnational repression” have significantly increased since President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris took office. The analysis was first reported by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

“Beijing has continually encroached upon American sovereignty to spy, intimidate, and harass not only defectors, but even American citizens,” Committee Chair and Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn. said in a statement. “It is important we remain clear-eyed about the threat the CCP poses to the security of the American people so we are prepared to counter its malign influence at every turn.”

According to the report, there have been more than 55 “CCP-related espionage cases in 20 states” from January 2021-October 2024. These have included incidents related to “transmission of sensitive military information to [the People’s Republic of China] PRC,” “stealing of trade secrets to benefit the PRC,” “transnational repression schemes to target PRC dissidents,” and “obstruction of justice.”

The Department of Defense is attempting to change the rules of engagement between the military and U.S. citizens through a directive, not legislation. That directive expands the instances in which the military can use lethal force against Americans. The directive specifically defines lethal force use to include “imminent threat” or “national security emergencies.”

GreenMedInfo highlights the key change:  In the 2016 version, the directive primarily focused on intelligence collection and ensuring civil liberties protections for U.S. persons. It emphasized strict oversight and the need for authorization before collecting U.S. person information.

However, the 2024 version expands the military’s role, particularly in assisting civil law enforcement, and authorizes lethal force under specific conditions, raising questions about its use during potential civil unrest surrounding the election.

On an episode of the Ron Paul Liberty Report, Ron Paul and co-host Daniel McAdams warned about an ominous directive issued by the Department of Defense.

“Police State Update — Will We See U.S. troops, On U.S. Soil, Using Lethal Force Against Americans?” Ron Paul wrote.

Paul warned the directive is “very, very dangerous.”

McAdams displayed an article picked up by Zero Hedge and thought the headline was an exaggeration.

“It’s not a law. It’s a DoD Directive,” McAdams said.

“The administrative state where they take over. They don’t pass laws. They are laws unto themselves,” he continued.

“It talks about a reissued DoD Directive that was reissued just on September 27th, 2024. It governs the Department of Defense Intelligence Activities and now includes provisions authorizing lethal force in certain circumstances and it supplants the 2016 version which did not mention that,” McAdams continued.

Hurricane Milton struck the west coast of Florida late Wednesday, October 9, 2024. Before it struck the coast, multiple tornadoes touched down, with one tornado reported killing 5 citizens. The storm surge appears to have been mercifully less than expected. So far, 12 are confirmed dead, but that number is expected to rise. 3 million people are reported without power.
