Airplane Loses Part in Mid-Flight, Makes Emergency U-Turn (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Netherlands-bound Delta Air Lines airplane returned to Utah after losing an engine pylon panel during takeoff Sunday, according to reports.

The Airbus A330neo carrying 260 passengers and 13 crew members departed Salt Lake City for Amsterdam and had reached the Montana-North Dakota boundary before safely returning to Salt Lake City as one of the engine pylon panels had fallen off on takeoff, the Associated Press (AP) reported. It was not immediately clear how the pilots learned of the missing part, but Delta acknowledged there was “a reported mechanical issue” with the two-aisle Airbus jet, according to the report.

Delta reportedly apologized to the passengers for the delay caused by the incident.

The airplane had gained a cruising altitude of 35,000 ft (10,668 m) and had been in the air for just over an hour when it aborted its flight to Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport, according to Simple Flying. The flight crew reportedly did not alert the passengers of the incident as the airplane turned around and made its way back to Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC).

The widebody jet reportedly has not flown since returning to SLC nearly three hours after takeoff. A similar Delta Air Lines Airbus jet replaced the affected jet and completed the flight to Amsterdam, according to Simple Flying. The substitute airplane was also scheduled to fly passengers from Schiphol Airport to New York John F. Kennedy International Airport, again replacing the affected airplane.

Former Lifelong Democrat Elon Musk: ‘We Need a Red Wave or America Is Toast’

/9 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Billionaire Elon Musk, a self-proclaimed former lifelong Democrat, declared on Monday that America needs a “red wave” in the 2024 election or it will face a severe catastrophe.

“I voted 100% Dem until a few years ago. Now, I think we need a red wave or America is toast,” Musk said on his platform, X.

Musk had been responding to a poll from one account asking people if they still consider themselves liberal.

“I used to consider myself a Democrat. Now, I feel like the Democratic party is very bad, but I still consider myself Liberal. Anyone else?” the account asked.

U.S. Judge Tosses Out Hate-Speech Lawsuit From Elon Musk’s X

By Business Insider. A lawsuit that Elon Musk’s X filed last year against a research group was thrown out Monday, with US District Judge Charles Breyer saying, “This case is about punishing the Defendants for their speech.”

In its complaint, filed in the Northern District of California, X argued that the nonprofit Center for Countering Digital Hate violated the platform’s terms of service in gathering data for reports that documented a significant increase in hate speech on X following Musk’s takeover.

The company claimed the CCDH was responsible for “tens of millions of dollars” in damages due to lost advertising revenue and the expense of internal investigations. (Read more from “U.S. Judge Tosses Out Hate-Speech Lawsuit From Elon Musk’s X” HERE)

Feds Demanded ID of YouTube Users Who Watched Certain Videos

/1 Comment/in , , /by

We’ve all made that joke, “Searching for this in Google is gonna get me on an FBI watch list.” But according to a recent report, that might actually be true if you watched some very specific YouTube videos last year. A United States federal court ordered Google to turn over the identities of tens of thousands of users who watched certain videos in a specific timeframe.

Federal investigators obtained court-approved subpoenas for any YouTube viewers who watched tutorials on mapping via drones and augmented reality software, according to a report from Forbes. The investigators had been communicating with a suspected money launderer undercover, sent them links to the relevant videos, then demanded Google identify anyone who had watched said videos immediately following.

The subpoena included names, addresses, telephone numbers, and browsing history for Google accounts for as many as 30,000 people, tracing traffic to the relevant videos for one week in January 2023. It’s not clear whether Google complied with the demands for user information, though corporations are typically hesitant to fight subpoenas issued by courts.

Joe Biden’s “Political Origins” Story About a Penis Lawsuit Fabricated, May Cause Legal Trouble

/0 Comments/in , , /by

For nearly two decades, President Joe Biden has told a story about why he devoted his life to politics. He repeated the tale, at the risk of facing criminal charges for lying to a federal agent, while speaking to Special Counsel Robert Hur in October 2023.

Fresh out of law school and working as a clerk at a high-powered Wilmington, Delaware, law firm, Biden, in his telling, was tapped to defend a construction company sued by a 23-year-old welder who “lost part of his penis and one of his testicles” to a fire that broke out when he was working inside a chimney at a Delaware City plant. Thanks to Biden’s shrewd legal defense on the construction company’s behalf, the injured man lost the case.

“I wrote this memo. And son of a bitch, it prevailed,” Biden told Hur on Oct. 8. “And I looked over at that kid…and I thought, ‘son of a bitch, I’m in the wrong business, I’m not made for this.’”

Biden said he was so wracked with guilt that he . . . walked into the public defender’s office to ask for a job that very day. It’s “the only time I ever lied,” Biden told Hur on Oct. 8. Thus began, according to a New York Times report on the special counsel interview, “a career that would one day take him to the White House.”

But this story is almost certainly a complete work of fiction. Although Biden did work at a law firm tapped to defend a construction company in a negligence suit like the one he described to Hur, the case concluded in 1968, while Biden was still in law school. And the welder won, walking away with $315,000, more than $2.8 million in 2024 dollars.

Secretaries of State Won’t Explain ‘Coordinated’ Effort to Fight ‘Common Adversary’ in 2024

/7 Comments/in , , /by

Several secretaries of state in key battlegrounds will not disclose what their apparent plans for a “coordinated” effort to fight a “common adversary” entail ahead of the 2024 election, despite repeated inquiries from The Federalist.

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson recently revealed what she described as a mass collaboration between six battleground states.

“One of the things we saw in 2020 was that particularly in battleground states, we were all battling a common adversary: a really nationally coordinated effort to undermine the will of the people both before, during, and after Election Day,” Benson said during an interview with Meidas Touch.

“And we learned to semi-coordinate with each other in ’20. Katie Hobbs and I, she was secretary of Arizona at the time, she and I were friends and we would talk regularly. But there was really no way for us to consistently as a team, the six of us in those six battleground states — Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada and Georgia — to constantly both compare notes and also say, OK, how we are going to respond to this nationally coordinated effort with a coordinated response,” Benson said. “So now we have that. We actually spent 2022 working to build that team in these six states.”

Benson then reiterated the claim that “democracy” is at stake before saying the states “talk to each other” to “develop common strategies and be much more powerful and united as a team.” (Read more from “Secretaries of State Won’t Explain ‘Coordinated’ Effort to Fight ‘Common Adversary’ in 2024” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An 18-year-old motorist is facing homicide charges for the deaths of a Washington state mother and three of the kids she was ushering around after he allegedly drove his Audi A4 more than 100 miles per hour into their minivan, prosecutors said.

Chase Daniel Jones is accused of killing the 38-year-old mom, Andrea Hudson, as well as Boyd Buster Brown, 12, and sisters Matilda Wilcoxson, 13, and Eloise Wilcoxson, 12 after he barreled into their vehicle, pushing it into another two cars on the road, officials said.

Two of Hudson’s children who were also in the minivan were hospitalized and remain in intensive care.

Jones — who was badly injured — allegedly blew through a red light at an intersection where the crash happened on Tuesday in the community of Fairwood, a King County sheriff official said in a police report obtained by the Seattle Times.

Jones was driving as fast as 112 mph with no signs of braking on a road where the speed limit was 40 mph, authorities alleged. (Read more from “Driver, 18, Going 112 Mph Kills Mother and 3 Kids After T-Boning Minivan” HERE)

Report: Fairbanks Planet Fitness Assigns Staffer to Escort Trans Customer in Women’s Locker Room

/5 Comments/in , , /by

The Alaska Planet Fitness outlet in the news for allowing a man who identifies as “queer” to use the women’s locker rooms has reportedly doubled down on its policy by not only allowing the trans customer free access to women’s facilities but also providing a staff member to escort him.

The outlet in Fairbanks, Alaska, has been in the news since the indispensable Libs of TikTok posted about the experience of gym customer Patricia Silva, who was shocked and alarmed when she saw an obvious man in various states of undress, shaving in the women’s locker room while young girls were in there.

Silva had taken to her social media to say how uncomfortable she was over having a man in the women’s locker room. But after her video went viral, Planet Fitness doubled down on its trans inclusion policy and banned Silva from using their facilities.

A spokesman told the press that Planet Fitness is a “Judgement Free Zone” and has no problem with “transgender” customers invading women’s spaces.

“As the home of the Judgement Free Zone, Planet Fitness is committed to creating an inclusive environment,” the company said in an email to media outlets. (Read more from “Report: Planet Fitness Assigns Staffer to Escort Trans Customer in Women’s Locker Room” HERE)

Man Facing Charges for Displaying ‘Intimidating’ Signs on His Property

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Lots of free speech fights have erupted in recent years in America. There have been all of those people, and groups, censored by social media because the Biden administration disliked their opinions. . .

But now a speech fight has erupted in the unlikely place of Evanston, Wyoming, where a man is facing a felony charge for posting signs criticizing his neighbor, who had filed a complaint about the condition of his property.

The charge comes because, a report in the Cowboy State Daily explains, the woman who filed the complaint is a “witness” against her neighbor, and she perceives his comments as “intimidating.” . . .

The messages included, “When did the opinion of one nosey neighbor become enough to violate the rights others by the city?”

Also, “Mind your business,” “Snoby opinion Don’t take …” “Those who matter don’t mind, those who mind don’t matter,” and “You can go F*** Way off!” (Read more from “Man Facing Charges for Displaying ‘Intimidating’ Signs on His Property” HERE)

INVASION: Video Shows Illegal Aliens Overwhelming Texas National Guard, Storming Border Wall; Biden Slammed

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. Video taken near El Paso, Texas, shows illegal immigrants tearing down a barrier and overwhelming members of the Texas National Guard as they stormed across the border.

The illegal immigrants are seen pulling the barrier open as four National Guardsmen try to keep them from crossing the border in the video posted to Twitter on Thursday by former Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Jennie Taer, who now works for the New York Post. The illegal immigrants rush through the gap opened, almost trampling the National Guard personnel, until coming up against a second, sturdier barrier.

Texas has been clashing with the Biden administration over the state’s efforts to stop illegal immigration, with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit placing legislation that would allow state and local law enforcement to arrest illegal immigrants on hold.

Biden Slammed After Hundreds of Illegal Aliens Attack National Guard Troops at Border

By Daily Wire. President Joe Biden faced backlash Thursday afternoon after video went viral online showing hundreds of military-aged males pushing Texas National Guard soldiers and storming the U.S. southern border.

The New York Post, which recorded video of the incident, reported that the illegal aliens broke through razor wire and fencing and then pushed straight through the soldiers.

Governor Greg Abbott gave a brief update about the incident in El Paso a few hours after video of the incident garnered millions of views online.

“The TX National Guard & Dept. of Public Safety quickly regained control & are redoubling the razor wire barriers,” Abbott said. “DPS is instructed to arrest every illegal immigrant involved for criminal trespass & destruction of property.”

Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin said that Texas law enforcement officials told him that the group consisted of “several hundred illegal aliens, mostly single adult men who rushed the soldiers, and one has been arrested so far for assaulting a soldier.” (Read more from “Biden Slammed After Hundreds of Illegal Aliens Attack National Guard Troops at Border” HERE)
