The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating a near collision between a military helicopter and United Airlines aircraft at John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California. According to Fox News, a Sikorsky Black Hawk helicopter crossed in front of the flight path of United Airlines flight 589 while on its final approach. Air traffic control advised the pilots to “watch for a military helicopter flying near the airport,” a United Airlines spokesperson told Fox News. “They saw the helicopter and also received a traffic alert, which they responded to by leveling the aircraft,” the spokesperson said. “The United flight then landed safely,” they added. World News Tonight provided video coverage: An urgent investigation is underway after a military Black Hawk helicopter crossed in front of a packed passenger flight as it attempted to land in California. The pilots took evasive action to avoid a possible midair crash. @TrevorLAult reports. https://t.co/951zGOKD6E pic.twitter.com/gMaOsMbQHw — World News Tonight (@ABCWorldNews) March 26, 2026 Fox News explained further: “Leveling” an aircraft refers to slowing or stopping descent and holding a constant altitude to increase vertical separation. The airline confirmed 162 passengers and six crew members were on board the plane and did not report any injuries. Air traffic control audio obtained by the New York Post indicated the United flight got close enough to the Black Hawk to set off an anti-collision warning, or “resolution advisory,” from its traffic avoidance system. The alert suggests a potential crash was only seconds away. At their closest point, the aircraft were separated by just 525 feet vertically and 1,422 feet laterally, according to preliminary radar data from Flightradar24.

The Boeing 737 with 168 people on board was traveling from San Francisco to Santa Ana at the time. An Army National Guard helicopter that was conducting a “routine training mission” was involved in the incident, the California National Guard confirmed Thursday. At the time, the helicopter was returning to the airfield at Joint Forces Training Base Los Alamitos, “along an established Visual Flight Rules route at an assigned altitude while in communication with air traffic control,” and also landed safely, the California National Guard said in a statement. “A thorough review will be conducted in coordination with the appropriate agencies,” the statement added. The FAA said it is investigating, “including whether a new measure to suspend the use of visual separation between airplanes and helicopters was applied.” The National Transportation Safety Board said it is aware of the incident but did not have any additional details to share at this time.

President Donald Trump is already turning his attention toward the 2028 election, expressing strong confidence that Republicans will retain control of the White House—even as his administration faces increasing pressure over rising international tensions. In a Thursday phone appearance on Fox News, Trump addressed criticism tied to his recent military actions involving Iran. Critics argue those decisions conflict with earlier campaign messaging that emphasized avoiding overseas conflicts. During the same interview, he also weighed in on the upcoming presidential race. “Well, I would say that it will be a Republican. I really believe that, and I think it’ll be a good one,” Trump said. “I think we have a combination of people that would be very good. You put together a little combination, I think it would be hard to beat the combination.” While he declined to identify a specific successor, Trump pointed to the idea of a Republican ticket built from a mix of strong figures within the party. “So I think you can figure that out. But I think it’s going to be… I do believe it’s going to be a Republican. I hope so, because we’ve made so many great strides. It would be a shame to see that thrown away,” he added.

It would be VERY hard to beat the combination. I think you can figure that out." I hope JD and Marco are involved! pic.twitter.com/I6rZjE4RNc — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) March 26, 2026 Meanwhile, the outline of the 2028 Republican primary field is beginning to form. Although still evolving, several names have already emerged as leading contenders. JD Vance is broadly seen as an early frontrunner, holding a noticeable lead in preliminary national polling and benefiting from his current role and close alignment with Trump. Trump has also floated the idea that a future ticket including Vance or Marco Rubio would be “hard to beat,” signaling both as top-tier prospects. Rubio, in particular, continues to strengthen his position within the party and remains firmly among the leading options. Further down the list, Donald Trump Jr. has posted unexpectedly strong early polling numbers, largely due to name recognition and continued support from the Republican base—though whether he would enter the race remains uncertain. Ron DeSantis, once viewed as Trump’s primary challenger, is still considered a credible candidate, even if his momentum has cooled compared to earlier cycles. Beyond these figures, a wider group of Republicans is beginning to position themselves for a possible run.

I’ve been doing this for over a decade now, covering Donald J. Trump from the moment he took that famous Golden Escalator Ride until today… And I have to say I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much angst and confusion among his supporters. Make no mistake, he’s wildly popular…perhaps more so than any time over the past 11 years. Even CNN was forced to admit recently that he is polling at 100% within MAGA, which of course is as high as you can go.  It’s literally impossible to do better than 100%: WATCH: CNN Forced to Admit that President Trump Has 100% Approval from MAGA! So it’s not as though he’s unpopular, but this is the loudest and most confused I’ve ever seen a vocal minority. People like Joe Kent, who rage quit the Administration. Or Tucker Carlson, who seems to have lost his way (although there is still much I like and agree with Tucker on), but he has largely split off from MAGA. Or people like MTG, or Candace Owens, or a bunch more I could name, all confused and grumbling and griping. But personally, I judge things by the emails and comments I receive from all of you, and I have never seen a small vocal minority this vocal. I’ve got one reader (shoutout: Jim) who has taken to emailing me every day now to ask the same questions over and over about the Iran War and how I could possibly still support President Trump after he pledged no new wars and now here we are in Iran, which comes on the heels of Venezuela, and soon will likely be Cuba next. And there are many others emailing in asking the same questions and just generally being big Panicans. SO MUCH HAND-WRINGING! So I wanted to take a moment to address this….all of it.  And tell you where I stand. Because just as much as there has never been such a vocal, confused minority jumping into the Panican camp like lemmings, I have personally never been more confident and committed to what President Trump is doing as I am right now. And it’s not even close. So allow me to explain why, and why I’m not shaken even an inch. To the contrary, I am so much more confident and so much more excited about President Trump and what he is doing now than at any point in the last 11 years. First, let’s start with the fact that President Trump has EARNED my trust and my respect. Back in 2015, it was exciting and he was saying all the right things, but we didn’t know for sure if he would really follow through….or if he even COULD follow through even if he wanted to. Flash-forward 11 years, and that question is answered.  It’s solid.  President Trump has delivered on EVERYTHING….and then some. His first term was rocky because the Deep State was far deeper than he imagined. But he’s a quick study and no one is tougher, and after surviving that first term and then surviving the even tougher 2020-2024 period, he has now emerged in this Second Term as nearly untouchable. He has the power, he’s made all the right moves, he’s surrounded himself with all the right people (no Jeff Sessions or James Mattis or any other countless losers who failed him in his First Term). Now he truly has a team he can trust.  A team that is not letting him down. More importantly, he knows who NOT to trust and he knows how Washington works. And he also knows he has very limited time in these four years, and he’s executing on a level we never dreamed possible. So that’s number one.  History.  Proven track record.  Action. Simply put, he has done NOTHING to betray my trust over the last 11 years, he’s only gotten better and stronger. Number two: I trust his judgment implicitly. This also related back to #1, but until he gives me a reason not to trust him, I will continue to trust and believe that he is making the best decision possible, based on all the information he has. He has vastly more information than I do, and all you Panicans who sit at home in your parents’ basement clicking away on your keyboards as if you can Monday Morning Quarterback President Trump is a joke! You are operating on a small fraction of the information he has. And quite frankly?  You’re just not as smart or intuitive as DJT. I like to think I’m on the upper end of intelligence and intuition, or at least maybe the upper half….but I’ve never seen anyone operate like Donald John Trump. His intelligence is off the charts, but even more than that his intuition is nearly flawless. To think I’m going to second-guess him from my home office is laughable. Third: this is exactly why I elected him and put him into office. I elected him to be our Chief Executive Officer. I did not elect him to take a poll on every issue and go with majority vote. I elected a Commander In Chief, and I want him acting on his own intellect, instinct and intuition, in a dynamic and kinetic environment. I trust that. I trust him far more than anyone who has ever been in Washington, by a degree that is off the charts. We finally have the one guy who is not like all the others, and you Panicans jump ship every other day!  What a joke! LET THIS MAN COOK! He knows what he is doing. His track record proves it. All he does is win. The man is so good and wins so often that people literally joke (or speculate?) that he must have a Time Machine!  No other explanation makes sense! And THIS is the guy you want to Panic over? This is the guy you can’t trust? Absolutely laughable. We will never get another like him, and I firmly believe he was put here for such a time as this. Sorry “Joe from Kentucky” or “Jim from New Jersey” or “Karen from LA” but your hand-wringing and panicking every single day while this man single-handedly saves this country is not needed or appreciated. Get the Hell out of the way, shut your mouth, and just say thank you when he’s done saving this country (and quite frankly, the world). I’ll wrap with this…. Credit to my friend BioClandestine for standing solid with me and not Panicking. It’s almost like Trump knows what he’s doing: Flashback 10 days ago. While every MSM outlet and clickbait influencer said Trump didn’t know what he was doing and was begging for help with Iran, I said Trump was making an example out of NATO and proving they aren’t our allies. I’m not perfect, but I’m WAY closer than most. https://t.co/jFqLQwI90z — Clandestine (@WarClandestine) March 26, 2026 And he’s operating on a FAR BIGGER canvas than all of the pea-braining Panicans. You Panicans see in such narrow and myopic views, but Trump thinks big: Whatever Trump’s master plan is, it revolves around global trade. He is securing global maritime shipping routes, especially strategic choke points. Panama Canal, Strait of Hormuz, Arctic shipping routes (Greenland/Canada). Combine that with tariffs. It’s all about trade. pic.twitter.com/dSVDNZEFQg — Clandestine (@WarClandestine) March 20, 2026 What is happening is far bigger than most of you have any idea about, even me!  And that’s why I am comfy as can be sitting here and trusting Trump. He’s earned my trust. And you’re going to love how this movie ends, even the Panicans who will no doubt come running back into the fold at the first sign it’s safe. And that’s fine, we’ll welcome you back. Just know that you lost your dignity and honor along the way: https://x.com/WarClandestine/status/2034856539287167419

You just have to love this guy…. Earlier today, while holding a Cabinet Meeting, President Trump suddenly went off on a tangent after seeing one of his black Sharpie pens in front of him, and told a previously-untold story about how he cut the cost of White House pens from $1,000/pen to $5/pen and how the company actually wanted to give him the pens for free. This is VINTAGE Trump, so good. Watch here: Trump: You see this pen right here? This pen is very inexpensive. But it writes well. I like it. Sharpie. I came here. They had $1,000 pens. You hand out pens. You hand them to people. 30, 40 people. They were $1,000 a piece. Beautiful pen, ball point. I hand out to kids that… pic.twitter.com/mrEXypiA0o — Acyn (@Acyn) March 26, 2026 Backup video here on Rumble if needed (with captions added): FULL TRANSCRIPT: Trump: For 25 million and it would be better, it would be better. See this pen right here? This pen is an interesting example. It’s the same thing. So this pen is very inexpensive, but it writes well. I like it. But I can’t have the pen the way it was, you know what it is. I don’t wanna give too much publicity, but they do treat me well, Sharpie. So, so I came here, they have thousand-dollar pens. And you know, you hand pens out, you’re signing and you’re handing them out, you’re handing them to all these people. Sometimes you have 30, 40 people, and they were a thousand dollars a piece. Beautiful pen, ballpoint, 1000. It was gold, silver, gorgeous, but I’m handing out to kids that don’t even know what the hell “What is this, Mommy?” These kids, they’re getting a pen for a thousand dollars. They have no idea what it is. And I’m—and I feel guilty because I’m like, you know, I’m, by nature I, I don’t—you know, it’s the government. I love the government like I love myself economically. I wanna save money. So I’m saying, “This is crazy.” And it had another problem. They didn’t write well. So I take it out and I sign and there’s no ink. And I got all you people looking and you’re saying, “There must be something wrong with Trump.” And I’m signing and there’s no ink in the pen, and it costs a thousand dollars. Guess what? I called the guy. I said, “I’d like to use your pen, but I can’t have a gray thing with a big S on it,” saying Sharpie, as I’m signing a trillion-dollar airplane contract to buy brand-new fighter jets, brand, brand-new B-2 bombers of which we just ordered plenty. I can’t do that with the press. “Use your pen, but I like the pen the best, but I’ll sign it. I could do like Biden did, you know? Give it to, uh, somebody else to sign or an autopen or maybe sign it separately in another room, but I can’t use your pen.” He said, “Well, I can make it nicer.” I said, “What can you do?” He said, “I’ll paint it black.” I said, “That’s nice.” “And I can even paint, uh, the White House on it, sir, if you like, in gold. Almost real gold.” Not bad. “And I can even do your signature, sir.” And by the way, this was not staged. I just saw the pen sitting there and I thought of this as an example of how 25 million dollars spent by me at the Federal Reserve Building would be a better job than four billion dollars that they’re spending. And you know one of the things that Kevin Warsh told me?
