London-bound Air India passenger plane with 244 aboard crashes after takeoff from Ahmedabad, India


An Air India passenger plane bound for London with more than 240 people on board crashed Thursday in India’s northwestern city of Ahmedabad, the airline said.

Visuals on local television channels showed smoke billowing from the crash site in what appeared to be a populated area near the airport in Ahmedabad, a city with a population of more than 5 million and the capital of Gujarat, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state.

Firefighters doused the smoking wreckage of the plane, which would have been fully loaded with fuel shortly after takeoff, and adjacent multi-story buildings with water. Charred bodies lay on the ground.

This is terrible. I read all on board are dead. Also it crashed into a building so expect more do be declared dead.

We will need to wait for the investigation but I see it was a Boeing 787-8 dreamliner. Not sure if I want to fly on Boeings anymore

in reply to anarchyrabbit

Boeing has plenty of problems, including many issues with the 787, but air India is not an airline I'd trust. The airline is responsible for maintenance and ensuring their pilots are qualified, if I had to bet, I'd say the issue was in one of these areas.
in reply to anarchyrabbit

Apparently one guy survived, it's early on so I wouldn't be surprised if the story changes but he was in the exit row and allegedly jumped from the plane before impact, which is insane if true.


in reply to daniel_callahan

It'll be interesting to see if they try this with Northern Ireland next. Politically a bit more of a hot, well, er, maybe "potato" isn't the best choice of word in this instance, but as far as sharing a land border with an EU nation goes, it could smooth over a few problems that Brexit created in that part of the Isles.



GOP senator accuses Trump of "petty vindictiveness" after White House snub

Retired military leaders analyze Trump's deployment of Marines and National Guard in LA


TLDR; both disagree with what's going on.
in reply to MuskyMelon

Starting to grind my gears to see the national press try to talk about Trump as though he’s an actual politician.

He’s not pivoting his stance , he’s a moron manchild he’s just winging it as he goes 

He’s not executing a reverse on his policy , he’s just bullshitting us all so that he can make himself look big

And he’s not deploying troops to California he’s forcing a military control takeover of a liberal voting district

I support any action that leads to the end of his corrupted administration…. Not violence though I’m not encouraging violence. I don’t wanna get kicked off this platform like I did reddit

Entire Fulbright Scholarship board quits, citing Trump admin actions


All members of the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board announced their resignation on Wednesday, releasing a statement accusing Donald Trump's administration of political interference in the prestigious exchange program.

The 12-member board alleged the Trump administration "usurped the authority of the Board" by denying Fulbright awards to "a substantial number of individuals" who were selected for the 2025-2026 academic year.

The board also alleged the administration is currently "subjecting" an additional 1,200 international Fulbright recipients to "an unauthorized review process and could reject more."

in reply to MicroWave

Sends a message for one news article, an action like this does. Then they all get replaced by lackeys and the new Fulbright Scholarship board does whatever Trump wants.

I'd think it's better to advocate change from within and use your power to shed light on the bullshit through years of leaks to media, while doing your best to shield the organisation from the worst decisions, than to just quit in a huff of solidarity.

in reply to pulsewidth

The problem is that it puts you in a lose-lose situation.

MAGA doesn't give up. Their entire method of takeover is to flood you in a sea of shit to either force you to quit or make your life miserable if you don't. If they're in a position to do that, that means they're likely already in the majority and you'll never be able to accomplish anything of substance during your tenure, and they'll just ignore or shout you down during any kind of official meeting until you just give up. And they're playing the long game. They'll wait.

So you get to choose a tenure of frustration as you accomplish exactly nothing and watch as your name gets attached to every bad committee meeting the MAGA morons make (because you're still a member of that committee), or you can quit and watch all of your accomplishments be hand-waived away by whatever up-and-coming MAGA cocksucker takes your seat. It's like asking if you want to be shot or stabbed.

in reply to Nightwingdragon

Also, letting them put incompetent people in charge will make the entire house of cards collapse more quickly, which in turn will help spur change when people get sick of their shit, which will inevitably happen.
in reply to Nightwingdragon

MAGA are patient, playing the long game, they'll wait? These are the guys that wear diapers to virtue signal they're Trumpers, and charge into the Capitol building when they lose an election.

They're neither intelligent nor patient - they just have NEAR ZERO pushback from all the people in institutions around them, everyone turning to the person next to them going, "gosh that's .. can you believe they're doing that - that's unconstitutional and definitely illegal".

I read the article, and even the outgoing Fulbright board just handball the problem to the next people.

[With] the board calling on Congress, the courts and future Fulbright Boards to "prevent the administration's efforts to degrade, dismantle, or even eliminate one of our nation's most respected and valuable programs."


Why the hell are they not doing that? It's cowardly and its essentially a strongly worded letter.

Pope to give a virtual address in Chicago at the same time as Trump’s military parade


The only good that might come out of this is the removal of tax-exempt status of Catholic churches

Eh, this had more troll potential when I still thought it was an in person event. The first American pope giving his first American soil address would have more power behind it.

I just hope he actually condemns Trump and doesn’t add fuel to the fire and encourage right wing Catholics. Trust me, they are there in the shadows already radicalized like the southern evangelists


Donald Trump Manufactured the Crisis in Los Angeles

US puts Switzerland on watch list of trading partners


The United States Treasury Department has placed Switzerland on a watch list for currency and economic practices, along with eight other countries.

Switzerland and the eight other countries have a large trade surplus, according to a report by the US Treasury Department on the United States’ most important trading partners. The report was first reported by Swiss radio and television.

According to the report, Ireland and Switzerland are new additions to the list. Switzerland’s trade surplus with the US increased last year, according to the report. China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Vietnam and Germany are also listed.

The aim of the ministry is to take action against unfair currency practices. Last year, however, no major US trading partner manipulated the exchange rate of its currency against the US dollar in order to gain a competitive advantage in international trade.

Bragg Soldiers Who Cheered Trump's Political Attacks While in Uniform Were Checked for Allegiance, Appearance


Internal 82nd Airborne Division communications reviewed by Military.com reveal a tightly orchestrated effort to curate the optics of Trump's recent visit, including handpicking soldiers for the audience based on political leanings and physical appearance. The troops ultimately selected to be behind Trump and visible to the cameras were almost exclusively male.

One unit-level message bluntly said "no fat soldiers."

"If soldiers have political views that are in opposition to the current administration and they don't want to be in the audience then they need to speak with their leadership and get swapped out," another note to troops said.


Cherry picking your fan boys, very Alpha move.

I mean that as we've seen cops are easy to start using pellets and gas, and when people respond throwing rocks, suddenly it's a 'violent insurrection'; that's why I said it's important to see who started it.



Republicans Plan to Ditch Trump’s Birthday Military Parade


Just seven of 50 surveyed GOP lawmakers are planning to actually attend the president’s birthday festivities over the weekend, reported Politico. [...] Those sticking around include some of Trump’s most stalwart MAGA supporters: Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene (who told Politico “of course” she’d be there), Byron Donalds, and Elise Stefanik are all planning to celebrate. Representatives Cory Mills, Rich McCormick, John McGuire, and Lisa McClain are also expected to be in attendance.
