A small plane carrying two people crashed into the icy waters of the Hudson River near New York Stewart International Airport in Orange County on Monday. The pilot told air traffic controllers he lost his engine shortly before landing in the river. “I think I might have to put it in the water,” the pilot said, according to the New York Post.

He tells the air traffic controller that they were still running on “a little bit of power” and would be aiming for the west bank of the river. The controller assures the pilot that help is on the way. The pilot and passenger, neither of whom have been identified, miraculously survived after the plane went down in the river near Newburgh around 8 p.m. The pair managed to escape the wreckage and swim through the frigid river to the shoreline. They then walked to a heated warehouse along the waterfront where they changed into dry clothes they found there before first responders located them, officials told The Post. They only suffered minor injuries, were able to crack jokes about the clothes they’d put on before they were taken to a local hospital for treatment, a local EMS official said. “Another miracle on the Hudson. Thank God both the pilot and passenger of a single engine plane that performed an ice landing near Newburgh have been located with only minor injuries. Grateful to our first responders for their quick actions,” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul commented. Another miracle on the Hudson.

Pat Ryan said he was “closely monitoring reports of a small plane making an emergency landing near the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge.” “I’m in touch with officials on the ground, who have shared that both passengers are safely out of the water & have been evacuated by EMS,” he said. “Incredibly grateful for our Hudson Valley first responders who are responding swiftly and put their lives on the line to keep others safe.” The cause of the emergency landing remains under investigation.

The House Ethics Committee has opened an investigation into Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) over allegations that she engaged in “improper reimbursement practices” for funds related to her home in Washington, D.C. “On December 2, 2025, the Committee received a referral from the Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC), regarding Representative Nancy Mace. Pursuant to House Rule XI, clause 3(b)(8)(A), and Committee Rules 17A(b)(1)(A) and 17A(c)(1), on January 16, 2026, the Committee extended its review of the matter. As the Committee noted in its January 16, 2026, public statement, under House Rule XI, clause 3(b)(8)(A) and Committee Rule 17A, the Committee on this date is now required to announce its course of action in this matter,” a statement read. “In order to gather additional information necessary to complete its review, the Committee will review the matter pursuant to Committee Rule 18(a). The Committee notes that the mere fact of conducting further review of a referral, and any mandatory disclosure of such further review, does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the Committee,” it continued. GOP Rep. Nancy Mace is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for allegedly attempting to profit off of a congressional program intended to defray housing costs for lawmakers’ Washington, DC, residences — a claim she has denied. https://t.co/Ki8AKSOVBo pic.twitter.com/1e3Pc0EUup — CNN (@CNN) March 3, 2026 CNN explained further: According to a newly published report from the Office of Congressional Conduct, the South Carolina Republican sought and was paid roughly $9,500 beyond the actual costs of her residence in DC. “There is substantial reason to believe that Rep. Mace engaged in improper reimbursement practices,” the nonpartisan watchdog group said in its official referral to the House Ethics Committee. The ethics committee announced Monday it is investigating the matter. Mace was participating in a housing reimbursement program for members of Congress, which is intended to help subsidize lodging, food and travel expenses for lawmakers who must maintain households both in Washington and in their districts. The program has drawn intense scrutiny, since it does not require detailed expenses and has effectively given lawmakers who take part a major pay bump. “As explained below, the Referral Report is fundamentally flawed in several significant respects. The Referral Report’s narrative appears to incorporate unverified assertions and materials that may have originated from, or been influenced by, Rep. Mace’s former fiancé, Brendan Patrick Bryant. The OCC was informed of Bryant’s relationship with the Congresswoman and his documented history of abusive and retaliatory conduct toward her,” a response on behalf of Mace read. “Counsel repeatedly raised these credibility concerns and requested transparency regarding the sources of information the OCC relied upon and which the OCC never provided. This lack of lucidity deprived the Congresswoman of any meaningful opportunity to assess or respond to the information underlying those assertions. Accordingly, we submit the following information to aid the Committee’s assessment of the Referral Report’s accuracy and foundation,” it continued. “Based on the information reflected in the Referral Report, many of the claims concerning Rep. Mace’s lodging expenses and reimbursement practices appear to derive—directly or indirectly—from records or narratives connected to her former fiancé, Patrick Bryant. Rep. Mace’s engagement to Bryant ended in late 2023 after his conduct toward her escalated to a level that made termination of the relationship necessary for her safety and wellbeing. The dissolution of that relationship resulted in significant personal and legal conflict and created circumstances in which Bryant had both motive and opportunity to disseminate misleading and materially false information concerning the Congresswoman,” it added.

Office of Congressional Conduct referral here: https://t.co/IBiMfWDOjW pic.twitter.com/aWPqojnleg — Andrew Solender (@AndrewSolender) March 2, 2026 The Hill has more: The Washington Post had also reported in 2024 that Mace, “who co-owns a $1,649,000 Capitol Hill townhouse she purchased in 2021 with her then-fiancé, Patrick Bryant, expensed a total of $27,817 in 2023, an average of more than $2,300 a month,” according to congressional data. She had expensed more than $3,000 for lodging in January, March and May, the Post reported. Mace claimed in a statement then that she had incurred more than $100,000 in lodging expenses in D.C. and had received about $29,000 after taxes in reimbursements. “Do the math,” Mace said in her statement. “Bryant is terrified he might go to jail. And if he does, my female constituents will be safer for it. This just goes to show how broken the system is when a predator can viciously go after his victims in this way and is permitted to do so regardless of the facts.” Mace’s office said in a statement that the congresswoman is not taking the ethics complaint “seriously.”

A United Airlines plane traveling from Los Angeles to Newark made an emergency landing shortly after takeoff on Monday.

He said that the moment is one he’ll never forget. “Sort of a surreal feeling to be sprinting away from a flaming plane on the tarmac at LAX,” he said. When the plane began to make loud knocking noises that reverberated through the cabin just after takeoff, Gestetner knew that something was wrong. He said that the flight attendants rushed to the windows, where they began to tell each other there was a fire in the engine.
