American Airlines flight #AA174 departed late Wednesday, June 26 2024 from Raleigh/Durham for a 7-hour flight to London Heathrow. The Boeing 777-200ER (registration N756AM) climbed to 37,000 ft. But close to New York City, the crew decided to turn around following a mechanical issue. The 22-year aircraft was vectored to Charlotte due to operational reason. It landed 3 hours later at CLT Airport.

The decision could have implications for charges against Trump.. The Supreme Court on Friday ruled that the Justice Department went too far in slapping obstruction charges on hundreds of January 6 defendants. The court voted 6-3 in favor of defendant Joseph Fischer, a former police officer seeking to dismiss his charge of obstructing an official proceeding, Congress’ certification of Joe Biden’s election victory. However, the court ruled that an obstruction charge may be filed if prosecutors are able to prove that a protester was trying to stop the arrival of certificates used to count electoral votes to certify the election...

A desperate Joe Biden has hit back at the New York Times after it told him to drop out of the presidential race following his disastrous debate. The Times had previously jointly endorsed two Democratic presidential candidates Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren in 2020 instead of Biden. A senior adviser to the president told CNN: 'The last time Joe Biden lost the New York Times editorial board's endorsement, it turned out pretty well for him.' Biden would go on to win his party's nomination and defeat Trump in November 2020. But on Friday the editorial board wrote Biden 'is not...

A major US publication has debuted a devastatingly simple cover for its next issue, the day after President Joe Biden’s disastrous performance in his first debate with Donald Trump in the lead-up to November’s election. President Biden appeared to flounder in the 90-minute televised debate, frequently mumbling, trailing off his sentences and getting mocked by former US president Trump for his at-times unintelligible statements. Many US political commentators described the mood inside the Democratic Party after the debate using one word: “Panic.” That’s the word TIME Magazine has opted for too, alongside a photo of Mr Biden seemingly wandering off...

On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” CNN Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser Van Jones said that Republican claims that Vice President Kamala Harris is really on the ballot are accurate and “it’s hard to imagine” the Joe Biden that “you saw yesterday” on the debate stage “making it four-and-a-half more years. And so, you do have to acknowledge, there is a high likelihood that a Joe Biden victory ultimately means Kamala Harris will be president.” Host Abby Phillip said, “This has been something that they have described as a conservative talking point, a hitjob, that she’s really the one...

As the Supreme Court term nears its close, the left is redoubling its longstanding campaign to delegitimize the High Court, slander its conservative justices, and undermine the rule of law. Just before the end of its term, the Court has not yet released its most high-profile decisions, namely Trump v. United States, in which the justices will rule on the question of presidential immunity, and Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, in which the Court is reconsidering the future of the “Chevron Deference” doctrine that holds that courts must defer to federal bureaucrats to interpret statues. But the usual suspects on...

It's fair to say that Cody Wilson, the creator of the first 3D-printed gun, is an accommodating documentary subject. The company Wilson founded, Defense Distributed, has always taken a build-in-public approach, both as a practical matter of fundraising and to frame its project — the free distribution of blueprints for personal, at-home gun manufacturing — as a fundamentally political one. Wilson is an articulate and charismatic spokesperson for this project. While he can fluently cite post-Marxist theorists to justify his anti-state provocations, there's a certain mischievous swagger behind the Baudrillard quotes. He doesn't mind playing the villain a bit. Early...

European officials had already been expressing worries in private about Biden’s focus and stamina before Thursday’s debate, with some senior diplomats saying they had tracked a noticeable deterioration in the president’s faculties in meetings since last summer. ... “The reading in Europe is that this has been an unmitigated disaster,” said Nathalie Tocci, director of the Institute of International Affairs in Rome and a former adviser to the EU’s foreign-affairs chiefs, referring to Biden’s attempts to reassure voters worried about his age.... In the hours after Thursday’s debate, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk told reporters that the Democrats have a...

You might think what you saw on Thursday night was a debate. It wasn’t. Well, technically, it was in that it had all the requisite elements to it, i.e., candidates, microphones, moderators, TV cameras, etc. Make no mistake, however. What you were watching was a highly scripted, highly choreographed Kabuki theater play that you weren’t supposed to recognize as such. Every single American with a functioning brain already knew that Joe Biden was mentally unfit for the position he held. From the stumbling to the bumbling to the mumbling, it was crystal clear to anyone looking. Despite that, we’ve been...

Former Trump advisor Steve Bannon was convicted of contempt of Congress in July 2022 for defying subpoenas from the House January 6 committee. He was sentenced to four months in prison in October 2022, but the sentence was on hold as he pursued an appeal. His appeal was rejected in May and he was ordered to report to jail by July 1. There remains plenty of controversy over the charges Bannon faced and the punishment he received, but he is due to start his sentence on Monday nonetheless. On Friday’s show, Bannon joined Megyn to discuss how he is feeling...

Italian authorities are investigating the horrifying killing of a 16-year-old Iraqi girl allegedly raped and choked to death by a fellow migrant as their boat sank 120 miles off the coast of southern Italy. The suspect, who is also from Iraq, supposedly attacked the teen in a rage after he saw his wife and daughter drown when the crowded migrant boat caught fire and capsized on June 17, the news agency AGI reported.

Barstool founder Dave Portnoy has claimed Democrats sent President Joe Biden out to the debate against former president Donald Trump because they “want to whack him.” In a video posted X, Portnoy said it was not an accident that Democrats sent Biden to debate Trump, suggesting it was part of their strategy to remove the president from the 2024 presidential ticket.

@Nigel_Farage 🚨 POLITICAL INTERFERENCE ALERT 🚨 It comes as no surprise that that the #BBCQT audience last night was rigged. These were not ordinary members of the public. They hand-picked a prominent pro-Palestine activist & even a BBC TV Director to attack me.

66 Comments A major farm supply retailer said it will eliminate DEI roles, end its carbon emissions goals and cut ties to an LGBTQ advocacy group following a social media campaign calling for the firm to revoke its “woke” policies. Tennessee-based Tractor Supply — an 85-year-old company with 2,250 stores — made the decision after conservative commentator Robby Starbuck called for a boycott over the past three weeks on X. “We have heard from customers that we have disappointed them,” Tractor Supply said in a statement on Thursday. “We have taken this feedback to heart.” The retail chain — which...

Denmark is set to implement a law that limits the display of foreign flags within its borders. According to Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard, the Danish flag (known as the Dannebrog) holds significant national importance, and as such, the flags of other countries cannot be freely flown. However, there are exceptions: flags from Nordic countries, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Germany, and international organizations will not be subject to these restrictions. Embassies will also be allowed to display their respective national emblems. The law is expected to take effect on January 1, following a parliamentary vote.
