NTSB reveals chilling details of Florida Learjet crash as agency probes co-pilot’s role in incident

By New York Post. Federal investigators said Monday they are probing the role 20-year-old co-pilot Nathalia Gadelha Filgueiras had in the crash of a Learjet that killed nine people in a horrifying crash.

The doomed $2 million private plane was flying through temperatures of -50 degrees Celsius and started to pick up ice and hit heavy turbulence, authorities said.

The plane began to break up before impact, scattering debris over a half-mile radius.

The crash site crater is also partially filled with water, hampering investigations into what exactly caused the Bombardier Learjet 60 to crash near a trailer park near Palm Beach, Florida, the National Transportation Safety Board told press on Monday.

The plane had requested to climbed to around 37,000 feet to avoid foul weather when its crew reported icing and turbulence before it suddenly plunged toward the ground. (Read more from “NTSB reveals chilling details of Florida Learjet crash as agency probes co-pilot’s role in incident” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump on Monday argued Republicans should be able to “win in a landslide” while warning that his administration’s achievements will be “wiped out” if Democrats emerge victorious in the midterm elections.

“All the things that we’ve done, everything gets erased,” Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity of what will become of his no tax on tips, overtime and social security policies if Democrats take the House and Senate in the midterms.

“They got to get out,” Trump urged GOP voters in his final pitch before Election Day.

“Pretend I’m on the ballot. Do whatever you want, but we have to vote. If our people vote, we win in a landslide,” he said.

Over the weekend, Trump completed his whirlwind cross-country tour, hosting rallies in support of Republicans running in critical contests. (Read more from “Trump says Republicans Should ‘Win in a Landslide’ in Final Pitch to Midterm Election Voters” HERE)

U.S. Conducts ‘Defensive’ Strikes on Iranian Targets in Strait of Hormuz

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States carried out limited strikes against Iranian military targets on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz on Monday after Iranian forces reportedly launched a surface-to-air missile at an American aircraft, U.S. officials confirmed.

American officials characterized the strikes as defensive rather than the start of a broader military offensive, as President Donald Trump expressed optimism about reaching an agreement with Tehran despite mounting preparations for a potentially larger confrontation.

A U.S. official told CNN that the operation was a “defensive measure for Iranians using surface to air missiles against US assets.”

According to Axios reporter Barak Ravid, a U.S. official said Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) fired a missile at an American aircraft over the Strait of Hormuz on Monday night, prompting a U.S. fighter jet to destroy the surface-to-air missile launcher on Qeshm Island.

The limited nature of the response was further emphasized by Fox News correspondent Jennifer Griffin, who cited a senior official saying the operation was “not the start of new expanded strikes by the US.”

Obama-Appointed Judge Says Dan Sullivan Running Against Dan Sullivan Doesn’t Confuse Voters

/9 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge on Sunday blocked a lawsuit from the Department of Justice against Alaska over confusion at the ballot box related to the state’s handling of two Senate candidates with nearly identical names.

In a 20-page ruling issued Sunday, U.S. District Judge Sharon Gleason — nominated by President Barack Obama in 2011 — blocked the federal government’s lawsuit claiming a lesser-known candidate, Daniel J. Sullivan, improperly filed his declaration for Senate candidacy intending to mislead voters by running under the same name as incumbent Republican Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan.

Gleason dismissed the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) arguments, writing that the federal government failed to explain what authority it brought the charges under and how the alleged fraud could be addressed while maintaining secrecy of the ballot during voting.

“Simply, the Court cannot grant the United States the relief it seeks,” Gleason stated. “If this Court were to order that certain ballots will be segregated and subject to a future and as yet unspecified investigation by law enforcement, it would likely result in voter confusion and consequent incentive to remain away from the polls.”

A DOJ spokesperson later indicated the Department plans to file a notice of appeal.

Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy has been hospitalized after suffering a stroke at his son’s hockey game, his office said Sunday.

The Democrat, 53, felt numbness in his arm during the game Saturday and was rushed to a local hospital.

He was later moved to Johns Hopkins in Maryland, where he is “awake and alert,” according to chief of staff Allison Herwitt.

Doctors expect him to make a full recovery, she said. . .

The health scare comes two days before Tuesday’s midterm elections and just days after Murphy ripped a reported Pentagon plan to restart the war with Iran after Election Day. He wrote on X that he had been briefed on it and that “the plan is insane.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

Air traffic control audio revealed the panicked final moments from a private jet as it plummeted to Earth near a South Florida mobile home park, leaving at least nine people dead.

“Holy f–k we’re out of time,” a female crew member aboard the Learjet 60 is heard screaming to an air traffic controller in the last moments before the plane nose-dived straight into the ground about 1 p.m. Sunday.

Just moments earlier, the pilot is heard reporting moderate turbulence and “light, clear ice that is manageable” to the Miami Air Route Traffic Control Center.

But things took a turn for the worse in an instant, as she radioed a chilling “mayday” message to the controller.

“We’re descending 8,000 — mayday, mayday — we’re descending 10,000 feet per minute,” the pilot said. “We are in an overspeed condition, descending 20,000 feet per minute,” the pilot screamed moments earlier.

“November two bravo delta, I’m here with you, talk to me,” the controller replied.

Russia suffered more than 54,000 casualties in October, the highest of any month since the war began, according to Ukraine — with Moscow losing even more ground under Kyiv’s counterattacks.

October saw 54,400 Kremlin troops killed, wounded or gone missing in action, about 8,170 more than the prior month, according to Ukraine’s General Staff.

“This is a record for any month of the full-scale war,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky touted on Telegram. “There is also a record for daily losses: the Russian army lost 2,250 people on October 21.”

In all, Moscow is estimated to have suffered between 1.4 million to 2.1 million casualties since it launched its full-scale invasion in 2022, The Economist reported.

The outlet’s estimates show that between 374,000 and 770,000 Russian soldiers have been killed in action so far, a steep increase from May, when it estimated that at most 518,000 troops were dead.

‘The More You Threaten Her’: Man Allegedly Recruited Guy On Reddit To Sexually Assault His Fiancee, Police Say

/0 Comments/in , /by

An Arizona man allegedly recruited a stranger on Reddit to sexually assault his fiancée inside their home while she cared for her two young children.

Buckeye Police Department (BPD) arrested Zarian Dyer, 23, on Oct. 29, according to the department. Investigators determined he had plotted the attack with Adrian Ayala, 20. The two men met online, BPD said.

Detectives seized phones from both men and uncovered messages showing they had coordinated the assault, according to police. The motive behind the plot remains unclear, the department said.

Court records obtained by 12News captured Reddit messages from the day of the attack. Ayala’s account asked whether the woman was “in on” the plan. The other user replied, “Nope.”

Ayala wrote that he wanted to “back out” and felt “not comfortable if she not into it.” The other account pushed back, answering, “the more you threaten her the more she’ll get into it…” (Read more from “‘The More You Threaten Her’: Man Allegedly Recruited Guy On Reddit To Sexually Assault His Fiancee, Police Say” HERE)

Army Bringing Rapid Burial Training At Stomach-Turning Rate Not Seen In Decades

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Army has begun training to quickly dig temporary graves while preserving remains for identification and return to families in the case of a future large scale conflict.

Army engineers, preventative medicine teams, chaplains and fatality management specialists trained for mass temporary burials in preparation for potential future conflict during an Oct. 21 training in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Army Times reported Monday.

“The exercise served as a critical test of concept to validate the feasibility of battlefield temporary interment, an operational reality the U.S. Army has not executed at scale since the Korean War,” read an Oct. 22 release from the U.S. Army. “By bringing together fatality management specialists, horizontal construction engineers, preventive medicine teams, and chaplains, the exercise sought to determine if modern earthmoving equipment can meet the demanding timeline requirements of a mass-casualty environment.”

The Department of War did not immediately respond for comment.

These exercises were not common over the past twenty years of the War on Terror, as American air superiority allowed the quick transportation of remains back to the U.S. A future conflict with a large-scale combat operation may not have these same capabilities, according to Army Times.
