@SaintLaurant @RpsAgainstTrump From audio, there was an emergency going on with a United airplane.

@RpsAgainstTrump I read that ground control gave the firetruck the okay to cross an active runway, just as Canada Air was landing. How could there have been such lack of communication among controllers at LaGuardia?

“Stop, Truck 1, stop!” Air traffic control audio from the moment the plane collided with the fire truck at LaGuardia Airport.

@snakeyesV1 @grok @flightradar24 It was headed to a United flight that had an emergency

@grok @flightradar24 Why was it permitted to enter the active runway in the first place?

We’ve now processed the granular data from the CRJ-900 at La Guardia in New York. Ground speed data indicates a gradual deceleration until about Taxiway E on RWY 4. flightradar24.com/blog/flight-tr… #AC8646

@Giatirse @bennyjohnson Yet we had one Republican vote no to fund TSA.

@jryan_84 @bennyjohnson Im not blaming TSA or DHS I’m blaming Schumer over all the delays, traffic caused by lack of workers and backlogs because of the shutdown.

🚨BREAKING: Two reportedly dead and three critically injured after an Air Canada plane crashed into a firetruck at New York’s LaGuardia Airport

@DrewCouver56 @mrsunshinebaby Where do I start…. It’s pilot. And “their”. And you’re missing a couple “?”. Insulting someone else’s english when you show you don’t have a grasp on it yourself.

🚨 BREAKING: A report states that at least 2 individual have died due to the Air Canada plane collision at the La Guardia Airport

@Giatirse @bennyjohnson Except this isn’t TSA. This isn’t DHS. This is Department of Transportation (Duffy), air traffic control, and miscommunication.

@bennyjohnson This is all on the Schumer shutdown! I was just there and the airport was calamity. Too much people, planes and confusion.

Marco Rubio on Tuesday: "Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics." The White House Thursday:

A Message to the American People The Kurdish people have always been honest with the United States, and we still see America as a friend and partner. Our relationship with the American people and American soldiers has been built on trust, respect, and shared values. In Kurdish areas, American soldiers lived among us safely and were welcomed as friends. Not a single American soldier was harmed in Kurdish regions, unlike in many other parts of the Middle East. This reflects the true character of the Kurdish people and our respect for our allies. Kurdish forces fought ISIS not only to defend our homeland, but also to protect the world from terrorism. We stood on the front lines against extremism because we believe in freedom, stability, and peaceful coexistence. However, we cannot ignore the painful moments of the past. During the last nine years, decisions made during the presidency of Donald Trump left the Kurds in difficult situations three times: in 2017 in Kirkuk, in 2019 in Rojava, and again in 2026 in Rojava. In those moments, Kurdish forces were left to face powerful enemies alone. Despite this, the Kurdish people do not blame the American people. On the contrary, we still see the United States as an important partner and a friend of the Kurdish people. At the same time, we have learned from the past. The Kurds in Iran will not repeat the mistakes that happened in Iraq and Syria. Partnership must be built on clear understanding and real guarantees. Our message to the American and Western people is simple: the Kurds are your friends. We believe in the same values of freedom, dignity, and the fight against extremism. Together, we can stand against terrorism and build a more stable and peaceful future.

🚨THIS IS INSAAANNEEE: Iranian warship was invited to India’s MILAN 2026 naval exercises. Its sailors marched in a parade. They stood beside American sailors. Then the US withdrew from the exercise. Then they torpedoed the ship on its way home. Then they left the sailors to drown. Sri Lanka recovered the bodies. This is not warfare. There is a word for luring a guest into your home and killing them on the way out. We have video of the IRIS Dena contingent marching in Vishakhapatnam on February 19th. We have the US withdrawal on record. We have 80+ sailors dead and a Sri Lankan navy doing the recovery work America refused to do. And the American media response has been indifference. Girls’ schools bombed. Carpet-bombing Tehran floated like a policy option. A Marine’s hand broken for saying no in public. When cruelty becomes strategy and atrocity becomes routine — the people who stay silent become part of it. Say their names.

Rep. Jason Crow on the president warning Americans could die: "How amazing of Donald Trump to say, you know, that often happens in war. And that's a cost he's willing to take. Great for him. It's not his kids. It's not his family. It's not his billionaire donors who are having to go off and do it."

I am a diplomatic aide in the Sultanate of Oman's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My job is logistics. When two countries that cannot speak to each other need to speak to each other, I book the rooms. I prepare the briefing materials. I make sure the water glasses are the right distance apart. You would be surprised how much of diplomacy is water glasses. Too close and it feels informal. Too far and it feels like a tribunal. I have a chart. We had a very good month. Since January, Oman has been mediating indirect talks between the United States and Iran on Iran's nuclear program. The talks were held in Muscat and in Geneva. The Americans would sit in one room. The Iranians would sit in another room. I would walk between them. My Fitbit says I averaged fourteen thousand steps on negotiation days. The hallway between the two rooms at the Royal Opera House conference center is forty-seven meters. I walked it two hundred and twelve times in February. This is good for my cardiovascular health. It was less good for my knees. Both are in the service of peace. By mid-February, we had something. Iran agreed to zero stockpiling of enriched uranium. Not reduced stockpiling. Zero. They agreed to down-blend existing stockpiles to the lowest possible level. They agreed to convert them into irreversible fuel. They agreed to full IAEA verification with potential US inspector access. They agreed, in the Foreign Minister's phrase, to "never, ever" possess nuclear material for a bomb. I have worked in diplomacy for seven years. I have never seen a country agree to this many things this quickly. I made a spreadsheet of the concessions. It had fourteen rows. I color-coded it. Green for confirmed. Yellow for pending. By February 21 the spreadsheet was entirely green. I printed it. It is on my desk in Muscat. It is still green. That phrase took eleven days. "Never, ever." The Iranians initially offered "not seek to." The Americans wanted "will not under any circumstances." We landed on "never, ever" at 2:14 AM on a Tuesday in Muscat. I typed the final version myself. I used Times New Roman because Geneva prefers it. The document was fourteen pages. I was proud of every comma. Here is what they said, in the order they said it. February 24: "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity." — The Foreign Minister, private briefing to Gulf Cooperation Council ambassadors. I prepared the slide deck. Slide 14 was the implementation timeline. Slide 15 was the signing ceremony logistics. I had reserved the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Room XX. It seats four hundred. We discussed pen brands for the signing. The Iranians preferred Montblanc. The Americans had no preference. I ordered twelve Montblanc Meisterstucks at six hundred and thirty dollars each. They arrive on Tuesday. February 27, 8:30 AM EST: "The deal is within our reach." — The Foreign Minister, CBS Face the Nation. He sat across from Margaret Brennan. He said broad political terms could be agreed "tomorrow" with ninety days for technical implementation in Vienna. He said, and I wrote this line for the briefing card he carried in his breast pocket: "If we just allow diplomacy the space it needs." He praised the American envoys by name. Steve Witkoff. Jared Kushner. He said both had been constructive. I watched from the Four Seasons Georgetown. The minibar had cashews. I ate the cashews. They were nineteen dollars. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten. But it was a good morning and we were within our reach. February 27, 2:00 PM EST: Meeting with Vice President Vance, Washington. The Foreign Minister presented our progress. Zero stockpiling. Full verification. Irreversible conversion. "Never, ever." The Vice President used the word "encouraging." His aide took notes on an iPad. The aide did not make eye contact for the last nine minutes of the meeting. I noticed this. Noticing things is the only part of my job that is not water glasses. February 27, 4:00 PM EST: "Not happy with the pace." — President Trump, to reporters. Not happy with the pace. We had achieved zero stockpiling. Full IAEA verification. Irreversible fuel conversion. Inspector access. And the phrase "never, ever," which took eleven days and cost me two hundred and twelve trips down a forty-seven-meter hallway. Every American president since Carter has failed to get Iran to agree to this. Forty-five years. Not happy with the pace. February 27, 9:47 PM EST: The Foreign Minister's flight departs Dulles for Muscat. I am in the seat behind him. He is reviewing Slide 14 on his laptop. The implementation timeline. Vienna technical sessions. The signing ceremony. The pens. I fall asleep over the Atlantic. I dream about water glasses. February 28, 6:00 AM GST: I wake up to push notifications. February 28: "The United States has begun major combat operations in Iran." — President Trump. Operation Epic Fury. Coordinated airstrikes. The United States and Israel. Tehran. Isfahan. Qom. Karaj. Kermanshah. Nuclear facilities. IRGC bases. Sites near the Supreme Leader's office. Israel called their half Operation Roaring Lion. Someone in both governments spent time choosing these names. Epic Fury. Roaring Lion. I spent eleven days on "never, ever." They spent it on branding. The President said Iran had "rejected American calls to halt its nuclear weapons production." Rejected. Iran had agreed to zero stockpiling. Iran had agreed to full verification. Iran had agreed to "never, ever." Iran had agreed to everything in a fourteen-page document that I typed in Times New Roman. The President said they rejected it. I do not know which document the President was reading. I know which one I typed. February 28, 18:45 UTC: Iran internet connectivity: four percent. — NetBlocks, confirmed by Cloudflare. Ninety-six percent of a country went dark. You cannot negotiate with a country at four percent connectivity. You cannot negotiate with a country that is being struck. You cannot negotiate. This is not a political opinion. This is a logistics assessment. February 28: The governor of Minab reported forty girls killed at an elementary school. I do not have logistics for that. There is no slide for that. The water glass chart does not cover that. February 28: Lockheed Martin: up. Northrop Grumman: up. RTX: up. Dow futures: down six hundred and twenty-two points. Gold: five thousand two hundred and ninety-six dollars. An analyst at AInvest published a note titled "Iran Strikes: Tactical Plays." The note recommended positions in oil, defense stocks, and gold. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten was nineteen dollars. The most expensive pen I have ever ordered was six hundred and thirty dollars. The math suggests I have been working in the wrong industry. Defense stocks do not require water glasses. Defense stocks do not require eleven days. Defense stocks require one morning. February 28: Israel closed its airspace and its schools. Iran launched retaliatory missiles toward US bases in the Gulf. The Supreme Leader promised a "crushing response." Israel's defense minister declared a permanent state of emergency. Everyone is using words I recognize in an order I do not. I recognize "permanent." I recognize "emergency." I do not recognize them next to each other. In diplomacy, nothing is permanent and everything is an emergency. In war it is the reverse. February 28: The Foreign Minister has not made a public statement. The briefing card is still in his breast pocket. It still says "within our reach."

@realDonaldTrump This didn’t age well…

Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!

@FreedomMimi1313 @Cernovich Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil….just to name a few…do, in fact, have birthright citizenship.

@Cernovich I don't believe that any other country allows this. Birthright citizenship has to end!

If a pregnant woman crosses the border and have a kid, then she’s entitled to welfare for life. That is the practical result of birthright citizenship.

Sorry for missing this earlier, @tedcruz. Been busy leading my state's emergency response all day. From Kentucky.

The Minnesota Department of Corrections had to release a statement calling Bovino's claims about the target in the operation which led to the killing of Alex Pretti made up. The guy had no serious criminal record and ICE itself seems to have released him from custody in 2018.

I helped to establish DHS in 2002 and 2003 and later had the homeland security portfolio as a White House Counsel and served as General Counsel of the Department. I am enraged and embarrassed by DHS’s lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty. Impeach and remove Trump—now.

@AminCad @WUTangKids @CBSNews The impact? Him losing his footing on the ice? Look at it from another angle. Both agents slipped on ice.

@WUTangKids @CBSNews Internal bleeding doesn't always manifest as immediate collapse/incapacitation. Judging solely from the impact made by the two ton steel machine on his body (means massive momentum even at low speeds), internal bleeding is entirely plausible.

LMAO bullshit….here is Jonathan Roos right after murdering Renee Good….internal bleeding my ass! This is @CBSNews spreading bullshit for Trump and ICE

STATEMENT ON FORD PLANT VISIT FROM VP LAURA DICKERSON, FORD DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR The autoworker at the Dearborn Truck Plant is a proud member of a strong and fighting union —the UAW. He believes in freedom of speech, a principle we wholeheartedly embrace, and we stand with our membership in protecting their voice on the job. The UAW will ensure that our member receives the full protection of all negotiated contract language safeguarding his job and his rights as a union member. Workers should never be subjected to vulgar language or behavior by anyone—including the President of the United States.

Mike Johnson: One of the things the president probably had not thought through is when you bring interest rates down to 10% the problem is that the credit card companies would just stop lending money

@MissBeck12 @RitaJ2011 @johnnymaga @Ford @UAW #PedophileProtector

@RitaJ2011 @johnnymaga @Ford @UAW AFTER he was yelled at. Not before.

Hi, @Ford @UAW. Was disciplinary action taken against the Dearborn Truck Plant worker who screamed obscenities at the President of the United States earlier today? Many Americans would like to know before making their next purchase.

Jon Stewart just hit it out of the park with the Trump’s administration’s blatant hypocrisy… makes you wonder why they want us so heated and fighting… 🤔
