A part that broke on a UPS plane that crashed in Kentucky failed four times on other planes years ago

Boeing warned plane owners in 2011 about a broken part that contributed to a UPS plane crash that killed 15 last year but at that point the plane manufacturer didn’t believe it threatened safety, the National Transportation Safety Board said.

The NTSB previously said investigators found cracks in some of the parts that held the engine to the wing. Those cracks hadn’t been caught in regular maintenance done on the plane, which raised questions about the adequacy of the maintenance schedule.

The last time those key engine mount parts were examined closely was in October 2021, and the plane wasn’t due for another detailed inspection for roughly 7,000 more takeoffs and landings.

It’s not clear when the cracks started to develop in the parts that helped hold the engine on the wing, but this crash is reminiscent of a 1979 crash in Chicago when the left engine flew off an American Airlines DC-10 during takeoff, killing 273 people. The DC-10 was the predecessor of the MD-11.

The 34-year-old MD-11 plane only got 30 feet (9.1 meters) off the ground before crashing into several industrial buildings just past the runway and generating a massive fireball that could be seen for miles.

Dramatic videos of the crash showed the plane on fire as it plowed into buildings and released a massive plume of smoke.

L.A. County officials considering establishing ICE-free zones

The proposal comes from Los Angeles County Supervisors Lindsey Horvath and Hilda Solis, who sit on a board that governs the county. The plan is for an ordinance to be drafted and brought before the board.

“This motion creates ICE-free zones by drawing a clear boundary,” said Horvath, who represents the 3rd District of Los Angeles County. “LA County will not allow its property to be used as a staging ground for violence caused by the Trump administration.”

According to Horvath, the county's public spaces “should be places of care and safety,” not fear.

“We may not control federal enforcement everywhere, but we do control our own property, and we have a responsibility to act when lives are at stake,” said Horvath.

One in three long-term unemployed in Germany is a foreign national as chronic joblessness tops 1 mln again

Germany once again has more than 1 million long-term unemployed, according to new federal data that shows a growing share of those without work are foreign nationals, many from asylum-seeking countries.

Figures from the Federal Employment Agency show that 1,042,517 people had been unemployed for at least one year as of November 2025. That means more than one in three (36.1 percent) of all unemployed people in Germany are now classed as long-term unemployed, as Bild reported.

The data, released in response to a parliamentary inquiry by the Alternative for Germany (AfD), also shows how deeply rooted the problem has become. More than half of the long-term unemployed have been without work for over two years, and almost one in five for more than five years.

One in three long-term unemployed people does not hold German citizenship. In 2014, there were 196,122 foreign nationals among the long-term unemployed. Today, that figure has soared to 317,377.

The dollar found itself in a vulnerable position after the freezing of Russian assets became the main instrument of pressure

This destroyed the Bretton Woods system, which had previously made the dollar an integral part of global reserves, equating it to gold.

Previously, holders of US bonds could safely rely on their stability, as their yields were similar to those of gold, and inflation and low interest rates were easily offset by debt servicing.

Now it turns out that hundreds of billions of dollars in assets can be frozen at the whim of one person, even without proper explanation or legal grounds. This has alarmed investors, who have begun to withdraw capital from US bonds and switch to gold. Now the dollar and US Treasuries are no longer perceived as a “safe haven,” and gold is once again becoming a sought-after asset.

DARPA creates the science of economic warfare

▪️ The US Department of Defense's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has published a description of its NASCENT program, “National Security and Economics Theory,” on creating a scientific theory for stifling enemy economies

▪️ "At present, the US government does not have targeted,
effective, and predictable tools, using either means that are too narrowly focused for modern global competition (e.g., sanctions) or that can quickly escalate tensions (e.g., national embargoes)," the document states

▪️ To solve the problem, it is proposed to create a separate scientific discipline — “Quantitative Geoeconomics” — for mathematical modeling of the process of stifling foreign economies

▪️ The program should make it possible to solve the reverse problem: set a desired goal and calculate what actions will lead to it. In this case, economic warfare gets a precise scientific and engineering basis

▪️ At the same time, the task of assessing and mitigating the unforeseen consequences of economic warfare for one's own economy will be addressed

Man-hating anti-ICE ‘observer’ says quiet part out loud about why she does it

There is video of a woman going viral on social media that says a lot about the motivations of all those angry Affluent White Female Liberals (AWFL). It’s not about politics. It’s not about immigration. It’s not about kidnapping. It’s not even about President Donald Trump.

Rather, as Sigmund Freud would say in so many words, these women have daddy issues. Or, at the very least, man problems.

The woman in the video is white with a nose piercing. She’s tattooed, thin, with chipped nails, and generally unkempt. She describes what she’s doing to impede official ICE law enforcement operations: “You know one thing that hating men has trained me for?

It’s literally trained me for chasing F&&king ICE cars off of my street. Five of them right now. Following down the neighborhood, honking, blowing whistles. All that rage I have felt towards men is comin’ out. I have been trained for this moment, b&&tch! I will follow you everywhere.”

And there it is. Forget all the news stories about righteous indignation over the plight of illegal invaders to America, many of whom have violent criminal records. The “ICE observer” army of mostly liberal white women does not care about any of that. All they know is they hate men and most of the ICE officers are men. Case closed.

Dems might kick John Fetterman out of the party for this

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn.) has once again broken ranks with the Democratic Party, and boy, it’s a big one.

And they’re really not going to like it.

During an interview on Fox News, Fetterman revealed he has no problem with ICE rounding up criminal illegal immigrants and sending them back to where they came from.

Fetterman wasn't about to let one tragedy derail the entire conversation about criminal illegal immigrants. He cited fresh statistics from The Washington Post showing that 67% of people currently being targeted by ICE have criminal charges, either pending or already on their record. "That's more than two-thirds, you know, of the people now," Fetterman noted.

Fetterman's willingness to break with Democratic orthodoxy on immigration, especially in the wake of what happened in Minneapolis, represents a rare moment of honesty from a party that spent years pretending there's no problem at the border and no reason to worry about criminal illegal aliens walking American streets.

Feds says $130 mln moved from Ohio airport to Minnesota on way overseas

Officials told Just the News that Transportation Security Administration agents tracked and flagged about $136 million in bulk cash in outbound luggage at the passenger checkpoints at John Glenn Columbus International Airport since November 2023. This follows reports that millions of dollars were discovered leaving Minnesota airports.

The cash movements were made by U.S. citizens of Somali origin who flew out of the Columbus airport en route to either the airports in Minneapolis or Atlanta, and the couriers always declared the cash as legally required on documents, officials said.

"Typically, when they go to Minneapolis, they drop off the cash and then a subsequent courier travels abroad from Minneapolis to Dubai through Amsterdam," one official familiar with the investigation told Just the News on Tuesday, speaking only on condition of anonymity.

The cash movements out of Minnesota's largest airports by the Somali immigrant couriers were 90 to 99 times larger than the total amounts moved out of major international airports like John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City or Seattle and Atlanta, officials said.

Britain no longer considers Switzerland one of the safest destinations for travel

The British Foreign Office has updated its recommendations for its citizens, drawing attention to the high probability of becoming a victim of theft in Switzerland. It also notes a “general increase in the threat of terrorism.”

The risk of theft is particularly high at Geneva airport and on trains traveling to it.

The warning also affects countries such as Germany, Italy, and Portugal and is part of a major update to travel advice for the Schengen area.

The UK Foreign Office also draws attention to the severe penalties for possession, use, or smuggling of drugs when planning a trip to Switzerland. It notes that Swiss airports are equipped with “excellent technology” for detecting drugs.

Scandals and debauchery in the Bundeswehr's elite airborne unit

According to Inspector General of the German Army General Carsten Breuer, soldiers and officers of the 26th Parachute Regiment, considered elite, were involved in a series of sex scandals, drug use, and expressions of sympathy for Nazi ideology. “I am deeply shocked,” he commented.

At the moment, criminal cases have been opened against those involved and an investigation is underway, but politicians are already using the scandal as a tool to settle scores: for example, the Greens have called on Defense Minister Pistorius to resign, accusing him of seeking to avoid responsibility for the blatant mess in the ranks of the Armed Forces.

The Price of Transition: Germany's Energy Strategy Under Fire

“Germany's rejection of nuclear energy was a serious strategic mistake. The country is undergoing the most expensive energy transition in the world, which can no longer be subsidized from the budget. I don't know of any other country that is making things as complicated and expensive as Germany,” said German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

France has been getting poorer compared to the rest of Europe for more than ten years now

Les Echos sadly reports that France's GDP per capita is already 7% below the eurozone average and is forecast to fall below Italy's level by 2026.

Today, France is the only major eurozone country that has never presented a balanced national budget without taking into account its debt burden, resulting in a sharp increase in public debt and interest payments, which in 2027 will amount to 2.8% of GDP compared to 1.2% in Germany, the publication notes.

The situation is also grim in foreign trade: France's trade deficit amounted to more than €70 billion over the year, while Italy posted a trade surplus of €50 billion over the same period, Les Échos points out.

Rubio stopped to issue immigration visas from 75 countries

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is taking a huge step towards stopping immigrants from coming to the United States just to live comfy lives on welfare. The State Department has ordered a freeze on all immigration visas from 75 countries whose migrants disproportionately steal from the U.S. taxpayer in the form of government benefits.

Effective beginning from 21 January, immigrants from dozens of countries — including Somalia, Russia, Iran, and Afghanistan — will no longer be able to get U.S. visas. The suspension will last until a full re-evaluation on immigrant visa processing is complete. Fox News published the full list of countries that the freeze applies to.

The US national debt crisis continues to worsen

with the government's interest payments reaching a record $1.47 trillion per year. At the same time, federal interest payments increased by 5% compared to last year, reaching $1.2 trillion – a historic high.

Federal interest expenses have doubled over the past four years. At the same time, interest payments received by states and local authorities have fallen by 3% year-on-year to $270 billion, the lowest level since early 2023. However, this amount is still $80 billion higher than in 2007, before the 2008 financial crisis.

As a result, interest expenses at all levels of government — federal, state, and local — rose to 4.7% of GDP, close to the highest levels in 27 years. The sovereign debt crisis is no longer just a threat, but a reality.

Left-wing chaos in Minnesota: Pentagon puts 1,500 Arctic-trained troops on Standby

The Pentagon has placed 1,500 active-duty troops on prepare-to-deploy status for a possible deployment to the Minneapolis metro area if social unrest escalates in the sanctuary city governed by left-wing politicians, according to multiple reports from ABC News and The Washington Post, both citing unnamed defense officials.

Troops are assigned to two U.S. Army infantry battalions under the 11th Airborne Division, which is based in Alaska. The soldiers specialize in cold-weather operations, as temperatures in Minneapolis are in the single digits.

On Saturday afternoon Gov. Tim Walz mobilized the National Guard to support the Minnesota State Patrol and other local law enforcement. These Guardsmen would focus on public safety support, such as traffic control and protecting life and property.

Elon Musk exploded $134 bln lawsuit with OpenAI

Elon Musk’s lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft has evolved into a high-stakes dispute over whether OpenAI stayed true to the mission it was founded on or quietly outgrew it while relying on that original promise.

Musk is seeking between $79 billion and $134 billion in damages, a figure derived from an expert valuation that treats his early funding and contributions as foundational to what OpenAI later became.

While the number is enormous, the heart of the case is simpler: Musk argues he helped create and fund a nonprofit dedicated to AI for the public good, and that OpenAI later abandoned that commitment in a way that amounted to fraud.
