"Texas Emergency Management Sends 120 Asylum Seekers to Chicago on Private Plane"

A private plane chartered by the Texas Department of Emergency Management dropped off over 100 migrants at O'Hare Airport in Chicago. Two individuals from the flight fled the scene in an Uber before police arrived. The City of Chicago will accommodate the new arrivals in their shelter system, along with those already staying at the airport. Texas Governor Greg Abbott's office stated that they are expanding their operation to include flights to Chicago due to the city's targeting of migrant buses. The plane had over 120 passengers, and the migrants willingly chose Chicago as their preferred destination.

Texas Sends Migrants to Chicago on Private Plane, Raising Concerns

Texas emergency management officials chartered a private plane and flew 91 migrants to Chicago, marking the first time a private plane has been used by the state to transport migrants to the city. The flight is seen as an attempt by Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to undermine President Joe Biden's chances for reelection and divide Democratic voters. The migrants, who crossed the southern border and requested asylum, are now staying at O'Hare International Airport. Additionally, three buses paid for by Texas officials arrived in Chicago, with more expected to arrive. The influx of migrants has strained the city's resources and exacerbated tensions between different communities in Chicago.

Investigation into Deadly Plane Crash Reveals Possible Hypoxia Connection and Sonic Boom Caught on Camera.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is investigating a private plane crash in Virginia that killed all four people onboard. Investigators are considering whether hypoxia, a potentially deadly condition caused by lack of oxygen, is a reason the pilot and passengers didn’t respond to efforts to contact the plane. The aircraft ultimately slammed into a heavily wooded area near Waynesboro, Virginia, and its impact left few recognizable pieces behind. The NTSB plans to begin recovering salvageable pieces of the plane, a Cessna 560 Citation V, on Tuesday.
