Podcast appearances and mentions of reagan national airport

Here are 3 big things you need to know—   One —   Florida has become the second state in the country to ban local governments from adding fluoride to their public water systems. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the bill on Thursday. The law is set to go into effect on July 1. Utah also has a ban in place.   Two --- The FAA's hotline between the Department of Defense and Reagan National Airport in D.C. has been out of service for three years.  The agency's deputy chief operating officer confirmed the information during a Senate hearing Wednesday. The official said the FAA takes safety responsibilities very seriously and is insisting the line be fixed before resuming any operations out of the Pentagon.   And number three —  The U.S. Census Bureau says Detroit's population grew for the second year in a row.  The data shows that the city gained almost seven-thousand residents between 2023 and 2024.  Mayor Mike Duggan says for the first time since the 1950s, the mayor of Detroit can say the city is leading the state in population growth.  Detroit ranks the 26th largest city in the country.

Join Jim and Greg for Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch as they examine big developments on President Trump's border enforcement, former cabinet officials dishing on Biden's decline while staying off the record, and an alarming communications failure between the Pentagon and Reagan National Airport that lasted three years - including the night of January's fatal mid-air collision.First, they cheer April's southern border numbers, with just 8,383 apprehensions reported—down 93 percent from April 2024. Jim says the stunning turnaround under President Trump is likely to be ignored by most media outlets now that the crisis is under control.Next, they dig into a report featuring three former Biden cabinet secretaries who described the former president as “disoriented and out of it,” even observing his mouth agape during meetings. But the sources remain anonymous. Jim wants to know why these cabinet officials didn't invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Biden from office. Greg slams these anonymous cabinet officials as cowards for not putting their names on their statements, probably because they still have political ambitions.Finally, they're stunned by revelations this week that "a hotline connecting air traffic controllers at Reagan National Airport and their counterparts at the Pentagon has been inoperable since March 2022." That means it also wasn't working on January 29, when an Army helicopter flew into the path of an American Airlines jet on approach for landing. The hotline was inoperable for nearly three years of the Biden administration and was not discovered until this month. Please visit our great sponsors:Cut your cloud bill in half when you switch to OCI by Oracle.

In aviation news, Newark Airport faces safety concerns after two instances of losing radar and radio contact, prompting some air traffic controllers to take medical leave. Reagan National Airport has also suspended Blackhawk helicopter flights after recent landing issues. Overseas, the US Navy loses two fighter jets in the Red Sea, both crashing during carrier landings, though the pilots were safely recovered.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, a devastating helicopter crash in the Hudson River claimed the lives of all six aboard: three children, their parents, and the pilot. In a separate incident at Reagan National Airport, two planes collided when a taxiing jet clipped the wing of a stationary aircraft carrying several congressmen. These events underscore a troubling pattern of recent aviation mishaps. Additionally, a new mandate requires all individuals illegally present in the U.S. to register, a policy facing pushback from the left, who argue it's unjust. Critics on the left accuse Trump of lawlessness, while U.S. District Judges, like Judge Indira Talwani, challenge his actions, raising questions about their own grasp of legal principles. Afterward, in June 2024, Levin expressed concerns about President Biden's mental sharpness, highlighting cognitive decline as a significant problem. How could the media observe Biden's behavior and only now claim there was a cover-up? The authors of these Biden-focused books are the same media figures who concealed this issue. Also, The SAVE Act will stop illegals from voting without identification and registration. It is very important and good that it was passed, proving that Trump kept his promise to the American people. The Tax cuts are just as important as the SAVE Act as it will help the economy improve. Hakeem Jeffries claims that Republicans are trying to destroy the economy. He stated that Trump is cutting part of Medicaid which will take away health benefits to millions of people. The Medicaid program has been used and abused by people who are Illegal and should not be here in the first place, and people committing fraud by using the names of their dead relatives to get benefits or income. Another example would be Elon Musk and DOGE discovering millions of taxpayer dollars wasted on unemployment claims for fake people, stopping them once and for all.  Elon Musk and DOGE continue to find ways to clean the swamp, and exposing the failures that the Biden administration left us. Then, Iran's latest move seems to be an interim nuclear deal—a familiar tactic to buy more time while engaging in strategic delay. The message should be clear: no nuclear weapons means no nuclear weapons. An interim agreement is unnecessary, assuming that's what's being proposed. Barak Ravid's take is always worth examining, but the stance here should be firm: reject interim deals outright. Lastly, Gov. Ron DeSantis calls in to discuss the Florida House legislature. The Florida Senate is collaborating constructively to maintain the state's success, while the Florida House is veering liberal, pushing bills to undo tort reform, enrich trial lawyers, and “de-wokify” universities. The House's actions diverge from Florida's conservative agenda. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today's Headlines: The stock market fell sharply Thursday, erasing gains from Wednesday's rally, after the White House clarified Trump's China tariffs are effectively 145%, not 125%, and will now include small consumer shipments under the “de minimis” rule—impacting retailers like Shein and Temu. Apple reportedly airlifted 600 tons of iPhones from India to beat the tariffs. Amid the chaos, Democratic senators called for an insider trading investigation following unusually well-timed trades before Trump's tariff pause announcement. Meanwhile, the House passed the SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections, and Trump's budget bill, which includes deep spending cuts and $4.5 trillion in tax breaks for the wealthy. The Supreme Court ordered the Trump administration to help return a Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador, despite unsupported claims he was an MS-13 member. The administration is also moving to place Columbia University under a federal consent decree over antisemitism. Elsewhere, a helicopter crash in the Hudson killed six people, two planes clipped wings at Reagan National Airport, and the Senate confirmed Trump donor George Glass as ambassador to Japan.

The pilot of the aircraft remains unidentified as of this morning. Escobar was a high-ranking executive for the Siemens corporation, and was the Chief of Siemens' division in Spain.Washington D.C. - In response to the latest round of trade war escalations, China has raised their tariffs on the United States to 125%.Washington D.C. - Concerns have been growing at Ronald Reagan National Airport (DCA) following multiple incidents over the past few weeks.

The pilot was attempting to land back at the airport when the crash occurred, with the aircraft being unable to make it back to the runway.

Two weeks ago, a fistfight broke out in the tower at DCA, with authorities arresting Damon Gaines for punching his fellow air traffic controller in the face during operations, causing brief ground stop to be issued while the scuffle in the tower was handled. Two days ago, the FAA stated that they will be offering reassignment opportunities to personnel who work in the tower at DCA. On the same day as that announcement, the FAA's lead official in charge of all traffic control operations, Tim Arel, announced his retirement after a 40 year career in air traffic management, contributing to the overall personnel concerns of the past few months.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

A man in New Hampshire appeals his murder conviction after being sentenced to decades in prison for killing his 5-year-old daughter. Pilots approaching Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., report receiving false midair collision alerts, prompting an FAA investigation. Drew Nelson reports.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – The skies are growing more crowded, and recent incidents like the January 29, 2025, mid-air collision near Reagan National Airport have raised serious questions about the state of aviation safety. How are military and commercial pilots trained? Is today's training keeping up with modern threats? What really happened in the recent mid-air collision...

The midair collision between an airliner and a military helicopter in Washington D.C. has led to actions that may hinder aviation safety and national security. And, it has highlighted issues caused by the current air traffic control system as well as vacant leadership positions at the FAA. Greg Feith, John Goglia and Todd Curtis talk about the aviation safety issues surrounding the tragic air crash and the impact of political reactions. They cover the information released by investigators. Knee-jerk reactions from authorities like halting certain flight operations, leadership gaps in the FAA, and politicians, including President Trump, speculating on the cause of the accident before the facts were all in have all added to the complication of understanding these tragic events.Midair collisions with airliners are rare. It has been 38 years since the last airliner midair in the U.S. John Goglia shares his personal experience with a midair accident when he had released the accident aircraft just a few hours before everyone on board was killed in a midair collision. Greg, John and Todd offer meaningful proposals to allow for continued safe operation of Reagan National Airport and a full and complete independent investigation of the accident.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Department of Justice decided to drop the case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, leading the left to jump to conclusions and say this was purely political by the Trump administration. This decision is more about the case's inherent weakness rather than politics. The case was frivolous from the beginning. Also, the NTSB suggests that the helicopter crew involved in a collision with a plane near Reagan National Airport might have missed a key instruction from the control tower due to an incomplete radio transmission, particularly not hearing "pass behind the." This, coupled with potential data issues regarding their altitude, indicates that some critical communications were possibly interrupted or unclear, leading to the crew recognizing they were in a perilous situation. Later, a Senator is saying that the U.S. should get out of NATO. NATO was established post-WWII to prevent another global conflict and to counter fascist regimes without deploying massive U.S. forces again. The surest way to ensure another war world is to get out of NATO. Those advocating for withdrawal know nothing about history and military dynamics. They are the anti-American warmongers. Afterward, the left keeps saying that Elon Musk wasn't elected but neither are the majority of federal government officials. Musk has been effective in exposing what the Democrats are doing so they attack him. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The NTSB held a press conference to provide preliminary findings from the flight data recorder (FDR) and cockpit voice recorder (CVR) related to the January 29 midair collision near Reagan National Airport between a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter and a PSA Airlines CRJ regional jet. The Black Hawk was conducting a checkride with night vision goggles and was following FAA-designated helicopter routes. The CRJ was cleared for a visual approach to Runway 33. The investigation revealed discrepancies in altitude readings from the Black Hawk's instruments, raising concerns about possible erroneous altimeter data. At 8:47:40 PM, the CRJ received an automated traffic advisory, and the tower instructed the Black Hawk to pass behind the CRJ. However, due to a transmission overlap, the Black Hawk may not have received the full instruction. Seconds later, the aircraft collided at approximately 313 feet altitude. The NTSB is conducting a visibility study, examining night vision goggle effects, air traffic control communications, and ADS-B transmission issues. The agency commended the FAA's temporary helicopter flight restrictions but has not determined if permanent changes are necessary. The full investigation is ongoing, with additional findings expected in the final report. If you're getting value from this show, please support the show via PayPal, Venmo, Zelle or Patreon.

On today’s show: Hamas says it will release hostages as scheduled this weekend. But the future of the ceasefire deal is still somewhat uncertain. NPR’s Kat Lonsdorf explains what’s going on. New reporting details frequent issues in the airspace near Reagan National Airport, where a helicopter collided with a passenger plane last month. The Washington Post’s Ian Duncan has the story. Luis Rubiales, the former Spanish Football Federation president, is on trial for alleged sexual assault and coercion after kissing soccer player Jenni Hermoso following a match. Dermot Corrigan, of The Athletic, has been in the courtroom and joins to discuss. Plus, the DOJ’s order to drop charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams prompts mass resignations, Trump announces reciprocal tariffs, and ‘Saturday Night Live’ turns 50. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

On Wednesday, January 29, an Army Black Hawk helicopter carrying three soldiers collided with an American Airlines plane carrying 60 passengers and four crew members over the Potomac River. The plane had been approaching Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C., and was preparing to land when the helicopter intersected its path, killing all 67 people. The crash was the deadliest air accident in the U.S. since November 11, 2001. The crash prompted immediate questions about why modern aviation safety systems failed to prevent the disaster. Furthermore, the visceral nature of the accident — a mid-air explosion followed by a freefall into the water — adds a layer of unease to these questions as Americans try to make sense of the tragedy. Today, we'll explore five aspects of the crash: what we know so far, the leading theories about what caused it, what reforms might be needed, whether DEI initiatives or changes to aviation safety standards were involved, and the implications for public safety. In Tangle fashion, we consulted a wide range of opinions during our research, and we'll feature analysis from four aviation experts throughout the edition.This is a preview of today's special edition that is available in full and ad-free for our premium podcast subscribers.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats in Congress are more upset with what President Trump said about DEI than the crash that happened near Reagan National Airport. Accidents like this happen when the government wastes trillions of dollars on their left-wing woke demands instead of dealing with a staffing shortage at the air traffic control towers. The ideology of the left is killing people. If the government is going to run air traffic, they better do it right. Why do we believe that when government does something it's better than the private sector? Also, stop using the phrase big pharma; we all sound like Marxists. Little pharma can't produce the medicine you're taking. Many of us wouldn't be alive but for big pharma. If we break them up, then nobody going to invest in the medicines we need. Can you imagine the disaster if the government was in charge? Afterward, Sen Thom Tillis convinced Pete Hegseth's ex-sister-in-law to come out against Hegseth to convince Republicans Senators to vote no on his nomination. Thankfully, it backfired. Why did Tillis vote for Hegseth after he tried to do all this damage? Now, those in North Carolina know who he really is. Finally, Rep James Comer calls in to discuss his investigation into sanctuary cities and his new book, All the President's Money: Investigating the Secret Foreign Schemes That Made the Biden Family Rich. https://www.amazon.com/All-Presidents-Money-Investigating-Foreign/dp/0063420015 Learn more about your ad choices.

Kennedy Jr., President Donald Trump's nominee to serve as Secretary of Health and Human Services, testified before the Senate Health Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. During one exchange, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) claimed that America's healthcare system is broken—Kennedy adroitly noted that members of Congress, including Sanders, have accepted “millions of dollars from the pharmaceutical industry.” 3:40pm- On Thursday, Donald Trump's nominee to serve as FBI Director, Kash Patel, participated in a confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- In a press conference to address the deadly collision at Reagan National Airport, President Donald Trump suggested diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies and hiring practices may have played a role in the disaster.

Max discusses the tragic midair collision at Reagan National Airport between a PSA Airlines CRJ700 regional jet and a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter. The midair crash over the Potomac River was captured by a Kennedy Center webcam. ATC instructed the Army helicopter to follow the airliner to Runway 33, but it did not comply. The helicopter was not transmitting ADS-B Out, though its position was tracked using Mode S transponders. TCAS alerts are disabled below 400 feet, meaning the pilots had no automated warning. Nighttime perception challenges likely contributed to the crew's failure to see and avoid each other. Trescott reviews ATC audio and past midair collisions, emphasizing the Swiss Cheese Model of accident causation—multiple failures aligned to cause the crash. A reported FAA radar screen showed collision alerts 30 seconds prior, but no action was taken. He urges pilots to use traffic displays with relative vectors for better situational awareness, particularly at night. The episode ends with a call to fly defensively and use all available tools to prevent midair collisions.
