'Southwest abort, FedEx is on the go!':
Moment desperate cargo jet pilot landing
at Austin airport tells passenger jet
75ft below it to abort take off because
they're using the SAME runway

Newly-released audio details how a FedEx pilot, trying to land his cargo plane, urgently told a Southwest pilot to abort their imminent take off at Texas' Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Air Traffic Control audio revealed that the crew onboard a Southwest flight headed to Cancun, Mexico, were aware that the cargo plane was approaching the runway - but went ahead and took off anyway. The plane had been given the OK to take off, but allegedly took too long. By the time it tried to begin its ascent, the Boeing 767 cargo plane was approaching its landing. Quick-thinking pilots on the cargo plane were forced to swiftly make a go-around,

Former President Donald Trump responded to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address Tuesday night, focusing on the mass illegal immigration taking place at the southern border, crime, drops in real wages, and “corruption.”
“Here’s the real State of the Union: Over the past two years under Biden, millions and millions of illegal aliens from 160 different countries have stormed across our southern border,” said Trump, the lone GOP candidate officially in the 2024 primary field.
Since Biden assumed office in January 2021, 4.2 million migrants have been apprehended by Border Patrol agents along the southern border, marking a record high,
President Joe Biden's State of the Union address kicked off with a sudden smooch between first and second couple members and yet another bold fashion move by influential Sen. Kyrsten Sinema.
The early fireworks opened up a speech that typically devolves into policy lists and platitudes as the night wears on
Tuesday night's prime time event featured angry exchanges between Biden and House Republicans who booed him for claiming they want to 'sunset' Social Security and Medicare.
Sinema made a bold entrance into the House chamber for the speech, after forcing Washington to hold its collective breath during talks on the Inflation Reduction Act, then later announcing she had switched from Democrat to independent.
Joe Biden used his State of the Union to tout his economic accomplishments, express his optimism for the future, and urge Republicans to work with him.
However, many Republicans took the opportunity to point out that some of the claims he made in his speech on Tuesday night did not stack up.
Eric Schmitt, senator for Missouri, said: 'I think it was a state of delusion, not a State of the Union speech.'
Former President Donald Trump added: 'The good news is we are going to reverse every single crisis, calamity and disaster that Joe Biden has created.
CLAIM: President Joe Biden claimed during the State of the Union that over the the last two years, he “cut the deficit by more than $1.7 trillion – the largest deficit reduction in American history.”
VERDICT: MISLEADING. Biden is “distorting reality” when he claims his administration is responsible for reducing the deficit, according to CNN:
The deficit has been smaller under the Biden administration than it was at the end of President Donald Trump’s tenure. But the deficit has been bigger under the Biden administration than the nonpartisan federal Congressional Budget Office had projected it would be if the Biden-era federal government stuck with the laws that were in effect when Trump
Republicans booed President Joe Biden during his State of the Union address on Tuesday night after he called on Congress to raise taxes on the wealthy and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene called him a 'liar' after he blamed the nation's debt on Donald Trump.
The evening started off with a smile – Speaker Kevin McCarthy made small talk with Vice President Kamala Harris, Biden started off his speech with some bad improvised jokes, and there was a standing ovation for infrastructure.
But it quickly turned contentious
Just 39 percent of Americans adults believe the state of the union is strong before President Joe Biden likely declares it so during Tuesday’s State of the Union address.
According to Monmouth polling from Monday, less than four in ten Americans say the state of the union is strong, while fifty-eight percent say it is not strong.
Among those who doubt the union’s strength, 32 percent say the union is not too strong and 26 percent deem it not at all strong.
Just seven percent claim it is very strong. Thirty-two percent allege it is somewhat strong.
The nation has weathered difficult times under Biden’s leadership. More than two million migrants were apprehended at the southern border.
Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders will make the case that the nation needs a new generation of leaders when she delivers the Republican response to President Joe Biden's State of the Union speech on Tuesday evening.
At 40 she is the country's youngest governor, after winning election in Arkansas last year. At 80, Biden is the oldest president in history.
'It's not necessarily about age,' said a senior official in the governor's office, 'even though she will make that contrast.
'But a new generation is also about the bold policies and the bold vision that leaders want to bring. It's about the new House majority and the oversight that
President Joe Biden will tout his economic plan when he speaks to the nation on Tuesday night, according to excerpts released by the White House, and he will call on Republicans to work with him, saying voters don't want 'fighting for the sake of fighting.'
'To my Republican friends, if we could work together in the last Congress, there is no reason we can't work together in this new Congress,' he will say in his State of the Union Address.
'The people sent us a clear message, fighting for the sake of fighting, power for the sake of power, conflict for the sake of conflict, gets us nowhere.
With President Joe Biden set to deliver his second State of the Union address, this one coming on the heels of the Chinese spy balloon fiasco, predictions on what to expect were making the rounds online with one common thread… the speech will light on truth.
The popular Carpe Donktum account back on Twitter, courtesy of Elon Musk, served up a list of seven things to expect at Tuesday night’s joint sessions address — the all-encompassing list is pretty good, starting with the obvious — “Nuking MAGA people.” (Tweet) But did he leave anything out? There’s no mention of inflation, but Biden has already declared that it’s not his fault.

Trump Years? 5 replies
The Biden administration has been trying to plug a gigantic hole in their story about Chinese spy balloons flying over U.S. territory during the Trump administration with no one in the government aware of it.
Initially, the Biden administration sought to deflect attention from their failure to shoot down the balloon by noting that Chinese spy balloons transited U.S. territory three times during the Trump years. But when several Trump administration officials hotly denied that charge, Biden administration officials changed their story. They claimed that the balloons were only over U.S. territory briefly — skirting Hawaii and flying over part of Florida — unlike this latest spy balloon, which traversed
President Joe Biden is set to deliver his second State of the Union address Tuesday night — and social media watchdogs are ready to get sloshed.
A slew of liquor-loving pundits took to Twitter this morning to devise rules for their drinking games and encouraged their followers to take part when President Biden makes his call for “unity” — after spending much of last year bashing Republicans himself and through his press secretary.
White House officials teasing Biden’s 9 p.m. speech — which will reportedly pitch tax hikes on the wealthy — told media Tuesday morning that he will recycle talking points from his 2022 SOTU address to argue that
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) says the “number one thing” Americans should be talking about is the Chinese surveillance balloon that recently took a days-long trip across the country before the Biden administration ordered the military to shoot it down.
Greene spoke about President Joe Biden’s handling of the balloon as she held her own balloon during an interview with Breitbart News ahead of the president’s State of the Union on Tuesday.
Greene said, “It’s just a white balloon, everybody,” adding, “Joe Biden’s not afraid of balloons. As a matter of fact, he allowed the Chinese to bring a spy balloon across the United States last week.”

The State of Conservatism Post Rush Limbaugh
34 replies
I really miss Rush. Regardless how complex or critical the issue, I could always count on Rush Limbaugh’s entirely rational and moral analysis, delivered by an apex professional with genuine compassion, even for those with whom he disagreed.
He was ensconced behind that golden EIB microphone; a master of ideas and argument. From his lofty height, he engaged with every thorny problem with an equanimity that drew a placid sagacity from an ocean of experience, and confidence. After all, Rush was “documented almost always right 99.7% of the time.”
He was a compass that always pointed the precise bearing to truth. He was the constitutionalists’ loadstar.
An Arizona rancher has been charged with first-degree murder and had his bail set at a whopping $1million for fatally shooting a Mexican citizen on his property.
George Alan Kelly, 73, was arrested following the January 30 fatal shooting of Gabriel Cuen-Butimea, 48, on his ranch in Kino Springs, just a mile and a half north of the US-Mexico border.
Authorities are still investigating the fatal shooting, with the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's chief deputy saying it does not appear that Kelly knew Cuen-Butimea ahead of the shooting.
But a friend of Kelly's told KOLD he has had issues with people on his property in the past,
Jill Biden will host Bono and Paul Pelosi in the First Lady’s box during Tuesday night’s State of the Union address. Her guests will include Americans who have become known in the public eye for their roles in some of the top issues President Joe Biden is expected to push in his remarks.
Those guests include a Texas woman who nearly died due to the state’s strict abortion law; the man who helped stop the Monterey Park Lunar shooter; and the mother of Tyre Nichols, a black man who died after being beaten by police in Memphis.
Other guests have ties to Joe and Jill Biden’s top priorities in the White House,
Disney’s “Proud Family” cartoon series featured kids singing a song about reparations that America “owes” to Black Americans and how slaves “built” the U.S. (snip) In the show’s recent episode, “Juneteenth”, which aired on Feb.1, 2023, kids discover that their town’s founder was a slave owner.
The song in the episode opens with the line, “This country was built on slavery which means slaves built this country.” This line was repeated continuously throughout the show “We the descendants of slaves in America have earned reparations for their suffering and continue to earn reparations every moment we spend submerged in a systemic prejudice, racism and white supremacy
AMC Theatres has introduced a new pricing program, offering cheaper seats for movie fans who don't mind sitting in the front row, in the latest attempt to increase attendance and profits after the COVID-19 pandemic. The U.S.' biggest cinema circuit on Monday said its new pricing initiative, called "Sightline," will be expanded to all its domestic locations by year end, including dine-in cinemas, after having already rolled out at some AMC theaters. (Snip) Those who want the best seats will have to pay a premium. "Preferred" seats — typically in the middle of the auditorium — will cost more than the standard
Mark Steyn, the only man qualified to replace Rush Limbaugh, has announced his departure from GBNews after the British media company requested a contract making Steyn legally accountable for any speech or wrong-think as identified by British regulators within the Office of Communication (OfComm). {Direct Rumble Link}
Within Britain, all media speech is monitored by the Office of Communications (OfComm), where official government censors track commentary according to regulatory and compliance rules established by the government. Previously, Mark Steyn ran afoul of the OfComm investigators when he began questioning the efficacy and safety of the COVID-19 vaccinations. There are two investigations ongoing with possible fines pending for violating rules
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) responded to questions on whether he would tear up President Biden’s State of the Union speech as former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) did to former President Trump in 2020, stating he does not believe in such “theatrics.”
“A lot of people have been asking if I’m planning on ripping up President Biden’s speech tonight. Here’s my answer,” McCarthy said on social media Tuesday morning, providing a clip of his answer.
“You know, I don’t believe in the theatrics of tearing up speeches. I respect the other side. I can disagree on policy, but I want to make sure this country is stronger, economically sound,

Somehow, the weirdest thing that happened at the State of the Union was not Joe Biden proclaiming that he’ll veto any legislation that raises the cost of “frisizhnjubs,” a line I’m still trying to figure out.
Instead, it involved a pre-speech kiss delivered by Jill Biden to Kamala Harris’ husband, Douglas Emhoff. Honestly, I have no idea what happened here. When I first saw that, I tried to rationalize it. Maybe non-family members kiss on the lips like that routinely and I just missed it all this time. But the more I think about it, the more I don’t think I missed it. Rather, it’s just incredibly strange.
This story continues to change by the hour. (Photo) The Pentagon NOW says there were SIX Chinese spy balloons spotted over US territory during the Trump years.
But no one was notified in leadership in the Trump administration or the US intelligence department.
The story is literally changing by the hour.
And General Keith Kellogg, who was the Executive Secretary and Chief of Staff of the United States National Security Council in the Trump administration, says he was never notified!
The Aldi store in north Minneapolis is closing next week, leaving the wider Northside community with just one large grocery store. The store, located at 3120 Penn Ave. N., will have its final day on Feb. 12. An Aldi spokesperson blamed the closure on "the inability to renovate the store to accommodate our larger product range and our current lease term expiring." It will leave north Minneapolis with just one large grocery chain, Cub Foods at 701 W. Broadway Ave., and independent options such as So Low Grocery Outlet at 3111 Emerson Ave. N., and North Market at 4414 Humboldt
Jill Biden made an unexpected appearance at the Grammys this weekend, where she wore a frumpy, 1980s-esque gold floral gown. Not only was the design outdated and aging, but we’ve seen it before. The first lady wore the exact same Oscar de la Renta dress in black back in December for a state dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron.
It doesn’t matter that Jill Biden looked like she was wrapped in aluminum foil or that she wore the same dress two months ago, the media used the Grammys as another opportunity to excessively fawn over the first lady. “Jill Biden shines at the Grammys,” wrote The New York Times, likening her
DeSantis, Inc. Underestimates Donald Trump
18 replies
The 2024 Republican presidential primary has hardly begun, but a consensus has already formed in conservative media that Donald Trump is toxic and unelectable. This narrative, commonplace but seldom challenged, is being pushed aggressively by pundits who are obviously partial to Florida governor Ron DeSantis. Many of these personalities insist that Trump has an obligation to step aside, and they pretend that Trump is attacking DeSantis unprovoked, despite the governor’s obvious intentions to run.
The DeSantis hype is not limited to media personalities
