Many people in the bar are saying the near miss happened because the helicopter exceeded the FAA’s all-you-can-eat weight limit. www.npr.org/2026/08/05/g...
Sanders: The irony is that the proper criticism of communism is that the Soviet Union was an authoritarian society. And then you’ve got the most authoritarian president in the history of this country. So I suppose when he says, “I’d be a great communist,” yeah, I think there’s some truth to that
