Hear The Moment First Responders Count Number Of Dead In Amazon Plane Crash

Newly released audio captures the chilling moments first responders arrived at Miami International Airport after an Amazon Air plane crashed during a botched landing, as emergency crews could be heard counting the dead and identifying those in critical condition.“Guys, the plane’s on fire, the plane’s on fire! Put your game faces on,” one responder said.“It struck a truck,” the responder said of the aircraft. “We do have a patient on the ground. We’re looking and searching the area for more patients.”A first responder then said in the muffled audio that they had recovered “one red and two black” patients — emergency-response terminology indicating one person in critical condition and two deceased. “We have three patients, appear to be … we have two blacks and one red,” someone said more clearly in additional audio published by CNN.In total, five people on the ground were killed and five others were injured, including three who were critically injured, according to officials.The B

Judge Rules On Charlie Kirk Assassination Trial, Death Penalty

A Utah Judge ruled Tuesday that Tyler Robinson will stand trial on all seven charges in the assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk, leaving him eligible for the death penalty if convicted of aggravated murder.After hearing hours of closing arguments from the defense and prosecution, Fourth District Judge Tony Graf found that the state had established probable cause, meaning there was sufficient evidence for the case to proceed to trial.Robinson, 23, faces one count of aggravated murder, one count of felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, two counts of obstruction of justice, two counts of tampering with a witness, and one count of committing a violent offense in the presence of a child, according to court records.The judge’s decision allows the aggravated murder charge to move forward, along with the aggravating circumstance prosecutors say makes the charge eligible for the death penalty.The defendant’s attorneys asked during the preliminary hearing that Graf reject the ag

Gay Couple Sues Surrogate For All She Has Because She Refused Abortion

A gay couple is suing a single mother for an estimated $600,000 because she refused abortion after potential minor birth defects were discovered by ultrasound.A surrogate in Canada says a gay couple told her to abort the baby she was carrying — which was created using a donor egg and one of the men’s sperm — at nearly six months pregnant over a possible cleft palate and a potential minor heart issue. A lawsuit obtained by the National Post says the couple is suing the woman for causing them emotional distress and not keeping them informed in a timely manner.After the woman, who is not being named, refused to kill the child, the couple allegedly stiffed her on reimbursement for pregnancy-related expenses, lost income, and other costs, which were supposed to be paid per agreement. When the woman tried to take them to small claims court to try to get the $10,000, the couple hit her with an estimated $600,000 lawsuit.“You know I’m a single mom, you know I have a daughter, and you’re basically suing me

WNBA Star Sophie Cunningham Won’t Diss Trump After White House Meme

WNBA star Sophie Cunningham, one of the most popular players in the league, is refusing to diss President Donald Trump.The Indiana Fever guard blew up the internet this past week over a hilarious “pointing” moment that quickly turned into a meme.Cunningham pointed at her opponent, DeWanna Bonner, while standing up for her teammate, Caitlin Clark. Bonner told her not to point at her, so Cunningham, the smack-talking competitor that she is, naturally pointed for an absurdly long amount of time. Hilariously, Bonner and other players lost their minds.When Cunningham was asked about the, gasp, White House using the meme, Cunningham laughed it off and just said “everyone” was using it.🤫🫵 pic.twitter.com/REKi0zgdqt— The White House (@WhiteHouse) June 30, 2026“Did you see the one with the White House posted, with the president in it, and did you have any thoughts on it?” a reporter asked Cunningham.“I think everyone around the world is posting it, every company has done it, they’re just the on

‘Welcome To Communism!’: Mamdani Roasted For Heat Wave Instructions...

Far-Left New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani told New York City residents and business owners to take on the heat wave in the name of collectivism, urging them to keep their thermostats set to a toasty 78 degrees.“New York: it’s hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool. Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you’re not using, and unplug what you can,” Mamdani told residents.The high temp on Wednesday was 91 degrees, which can feel even hotter in the city. Temperatures are expected to hit around 100 degrees for the rest of the week.“Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand, asking private partners to do the same, and powering down non-essential equipment,” the mayor added. “A stable grid means the AC stays on, and lives are saved. Let’s ease demand — and get through the heat — together.”New York: it’s hot out there, and the power grid is work

Democrat Who Condemns ‘Hoarding Wealth’ Has A Massive Family Fortune

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), who routinely reprimands the rich for “hoarding wealth,” is actually filthy rich himself and apparently trying to hide that reality from the public.Khanna lives in a $6 million D.C. home, complete with a four-story elevator; his wife drives a $190,000 Range Rover, and his young children own three high-end private golf clubs and a significant stake in a $65 billion wealth management firm, according to a bombshell report published by Washington Free Beacon reporter Andrew Kerr.Between Khanna, his wife, and his two children, his family’s net worth could exceed a staggering $340 million.Khanna has inherited much of this wealth through his father-in-law, Monte Ahuja, an Indian-born auto parts magnate, investor, and philanthropist, the report notes.Mere days ago, Khanna engaged in his typical vilification of the rich, suggesting wealthy people “hoard” their money.“I want America to be a country where it’s easier to build wealth than it is to hoard it, and where workers don’t h

Karmelo Anthony’s New Appeal Strategy Takes Aim At His Own Inner Ci...

An attorney who’s working on Karmelo Anthony’s appellate team just publicly dissed the convicted murderer’s parents and supporters, seemingly outlining the team’s appeal strategy.In a post published to social media, attorney Justin Moore ripped Anthony’s parents for mocking the father of victim Austin Metcalf, 17, and for going on a “press tour” to tout a false racial narrative.“[Thirty-five] years,” Moore posted online, referring to Anthony’s prison sentence. “They showed no mercy. Kinda hard to when the defendant’s parents had a press conference mocking the dead victim’s father right after the incident.”Following the murder, Jeff Metcalf, the victim’s father, was thrown out of an Anthony family presser when he asked to speak to the family and possibly pray with them. He was effectively painted as a racist.“Y’all non lawyers can argue about if he were guilty or not,” Moore continued. “Most real lawyers realize this was a punishment case. With that being the case, you sim

The Latest Development In Karmelo Anthony’s Case Comes With Baggage

So-called racial justice activist and civil rights attorney Lee Merritt was tapped by the Karmelo Anthony family to assemble the convicted murderer’s new legal team.Anthony was convicted earlier this month for the murder of Austin Metcalf, 17, and has been sentenced to 35 years behind bars. The Anthony family has made clear that they will fight the conviction.“Immediately after the conviction, Karmelo Anthony’s father reached out to me and asked for help assembling a new legal team to fight for his son’s future,” Merritt posted to X on Tuesday. “From that moment, we have been working nonstop to bring together experienced appellate and civil rights attorneys to review every aspect of this case and pursue relief through the courts.”Merritt has worked with the families in high-profile racially-charged cases, including those of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery. He’s also known for advancing false rape and kidnapping claims against a Texas trooper, before body cam debunked the accusa

MLB Targets Christian Players Who Rejected LGBT ‘Pride Night’

Major League Baseball has officially warned San Francisco Giants players who counter-signaled or rejected the team’s LGBT “Pride Night.”Starting pitcher Landen Roupp on Friday etched a Bible passage found in Genesis onto his Giants cap, right next to the LGBT-themed rainbow logo he was directed to wear. Other players, JT Brubaker and Ryan Walker, followed suit in standing up for their Christian faith, also adding Bible verses. And relief pitcher Sam Hentges refused to wear the rainbow cap altogether, stating, “I don’t morally support it.”MLB’s chief communications officer Pat Courtney told The Athletic on Monday that these players have been “warned” about “future violations.” He said that writing on the team’s baseball caps “violates our rules.”The Giants also addressed the Christian players. In a statement ironically about “inclusion,” the team apologized for its players apparently causing “pain and anger to many in the LGBTQ+ community.”“The San Francisco Giants are pro

Backlash Mounts Against MLB For Targeting Christians: ‘You’ll Be He...

Backlash against Major League Baseball is continuing to build after the league condemned and warned Christian baseball players for counter-signaling or outright rejecting an LGBT “Pride Night” last week.As highlighted by The Daily Wire, several San Francisco Giants players marked their gay pride-themed baseball caps with Bible passages, while another player refused to wear the cap at all. In response, the MLB boasted to The Athletic — a subsidiary of The New York Times — that it “warned” these players against “future violations.”Conservative commentators quickly reacted, condemning the MLB for supposedly preaching “inclusion” while targeting the handful of players who expressed their Christian beliefs. The MLB also caught the attention of Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, who posted, “Do you practice religious discrimination in Florida, [MLB]? You’ll be hearing from my office soon.”Do you practice religious discrimination in Florida, @MLB?You’ll be hearing from my office soo
