    Imagine being on that plane. Then later hearing you were on it with some lawmakers. And your tax dollars are no longer being used to pay people at the FAA. During a tragic year in aviation. Including the same day with six deaths.

    Imagine a day when six people die in a helicopter crash in the same country as this happens to lawmakers on a plane under the same DOGE shat FAA.

      This is a very thought-provoking comment. Thank you for sharing that. While sobering, I think it’s important that we reflect on that.

      Looks like neither plane was flying, and one was even stationary during the incident, so I don’t think it is as newsworthy as the title tries to make it.

    Who does that other plane think he is? Doesn’t he know that any aircraft carrying any Trump official is THE BESTEST, MOSTEST IMPORTANT one of all? It must have been a woke, liberal left-leaning airplane and needs to be deported by AIRPLANE ICE immediately!!!

    Weird

    CBS has filed a motion to dismiss President Donald Trump’s $20 billion lawsuit over former Vice President Kamala Harris’ 60 Minutes interview last year, calling the suit an “affront to the First Amendment without basis in law or fact.”

    Then judges go boom? Coincidence? Prolly not, since

    Pressure mounts on CBS, Paramount as judge declares motion to dismiss Trump’s $20 billion lawsuit ‘moot’
