Desperate search for survivors after plane crashes into military helicopter over DC
An Army Black Hawk helicopter collided midair with an American Airlines jet on Wednesday evening at Reagan National Airport in Arlington, Virginia.
According to the Federal Aviation Administration, a PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jet collided in midair with a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter while on approach to Runway 33 at Reagan National Airport around 9 p.m. local time.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that President Donald Trump is aware of the situation, calling the situation tragic.
PSA was operating as Flight 5342 for American Airlines, and it departed from Wichita, Kansas.
The FAA and NTSB will investigate. The NTSB will lead the investigation.
The Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia said in a statement that at 8:53 p.m., multiple calls were received for an aircraft crash above the Potomac River.
“DC Fire and EMS, the Metropolitan Police Department and multiple partner agencies are currently coordinating a search and rescue operation in the Potomac River,” police said. “There is no confirmed information on casualties at this time.”
American Airlines told Fox News Digital that they are aware of reports that American Eagle Flight 5342, operated by PSA, with service from Wichitaw, Kansas (ICT) to Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) has been involved in an incident. No further information was available from the airline.
The aircraft collided with a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter.
The Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk is a four-blade, twin-engine, medium-lift utility military helicopter, which can carry 15 people, including two pilots, two crew chiefs and two rescue specialists.
It is not clear how many crew were on the helicopter at the time of the crash.
The DC Fire and EMS Department confirmed that fireboats were on the scene.
Video of the scene shows numerous emergency crews responding.
One video posted to X and captured from the webcam at the Kennedy Center caught what appeared to be a midair explosion near the Potomac River.
Kansas Gov. Laura Kelley also said she was aware of the incident.
“I am aware that a plane inbound from Wichita was involved in a crash at Reagan National Airport,” she said. “I am actively in contact with authorities. My thoughts go out to those involved. I will share more information as it becomes available.”
Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kans., said in a post on X that he had seen reports of a collision with a D.C. helicopter and an inbound flight from Wichita, Kansas.
“We are in contact with authorities working to get answers,” Marshall wrote. “We ask you to join us in prayer for every single passenger and their families.”
Marshall later wrote that the aircraft was carrying roughly 60 passengers when it collided with the military helicopter.
“My prayer is that God wraps his arms around each and every victim and that he continues to be with their families. There are no words that can make telling this story any easier,” he wrote. “I ask the world to join me in praying for Kansas this evening, the first responders, rescue crews, and all those involved in this horrific accident. I have been in contact with local and national authorities asking for answers and will continue to demand more information on how this unfolded.”
Fox News Digital has reached out to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority for more information.

Trump admin to cancel student visas of all Hamas sympathizers
President Donald Trump ordered a law enforcement crackdown on antisemitism on college campuses, including removing pro-Hamas activists with student visas from the country, Fox News has learned.
Trump’s directive gives all federal agencies a 60-day window to identify civil and criminal authorities available to combat antisemitism and deport anti-Jewish activists who broke any laws.
“It shall be the policy of the United States to combat anti-Semitism vigorously, using all available and appropriate legal tools, to prosecute, remove, or otherwise hold to account the perpetrators of unlawful anti-Semitic harassment and violence,” the order reads.
A White House fact sheet obtained by Fox News states that immediate action will be taken by the Department of Justice to protect law and order, while also investigating and punishing anti-Jewish racism in leftist, anti-American colleges and universities.
COACH SUSPENDED AFTER HANGING UP PALESTINIAN FLAG, REFUSING TO SHAKE HANDS WITH JEWISH COACHES
Additionally, Trump signed two education-related executive orders. One strips federal funding from K-12 schools that teach critical race theory or radical gender ideology and another supports school choice.
Trump also signed an executive order to establish the White House Task Force on Celebrating America’s 250th Birthday. The group’s task will be to plan and execute “an extraordinary celebration of the 250th Anniversary of American Independence” on July 4, 2026.
The order also reinstates one that he signed on June 26, 2020, to protect American monuments, memorials and statues, while combating criminal violence.
“Recent examples of conduct necessitating reinstatement of this order include pro-Hamas-related vandalism of historically significant public monuments and related assaults on Federal officers and employees following October 7, 2023, including vandalism of the exterior of the Department of the Treasury and of statues in Lafayette Square in Washington, D.C. on June 8, 2024, and the assaults on Federal officers and vandalism of the Christopher Columbus Memorial Fountain and Freedom Bell at Union Station in Washington, D.C. on July 24, 2024,” the order reads.
WASHINGTON POST CRITICIZES PRO-PALESTINIAN GROUP US GOVERNMENT DECLARED A ‘SHAM CHARITY’ FOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION
House Republicans released a report last month that urged the federal government to do more to combat antisemitism, including by conditioning federal aid to colleges to incentivize more strict policies against anti-Jewish bias, the New York Post reported.
The report came after Columbia University and other major schools were host to anti-Israel encampments on campus, where numerous antisemitic incidents were reported after the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks in southern Israel.
Republicans accused Biden’s State Department and Department of Homeland Security of stonewalling requests for the number of visa holders among those anti-Israel agitators, the GOP report said, according to the Post.
“Immediately after the jihadist terrorist attacks against the people of Israel on October 7, 2023, pro-Hamas aliens and left-wing radicals began a campaign of intimidation, vandalism, and violence on the campuses and streets of America,” the Trump White House fact sheet states.
ISRAELI COLUMBIA PROFESSOR WANTS TRUMP TO BLOCK CERTAIN INSTITUTIONS FROM RECEIVING FEDERAL FUNDING
The White House said the previous administration turned a “blind eye” to campus antisemitism and a “coordinated assault on public order” that Trump has promised to reverse.
His selection of an Israeli ally, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, has already signaled strong support for the Jewish state against Israel’s critics around the world.
Since 2023, Stefanik has served as a conservative firebrand who has repeatedly grilled “morally bankrupt” college leaders over their handling of antisemitism on campus after the Hamas terror attacks on Israel.
Most notably, Stefanik grilled Ivy League college administrators from Penn and Harvard, her alma mater, in December 2023 regarding whether “calling for the genocide of Jews” violates the respective school’s codes of conduct. The school leaders, however, waffled in their responses.
“It can be, depending on the context,” Claudine Gay, Harvard’s president at the time, responded when asked if “calling for the genocide of Jews” violated school conduct rules.
“Antisemitic speech when it crosses into conduct that amounts to bullying, harassment, intimidation – that is actionable conduct, and we do take action,” Gay said when pressed to answer “yes” or “no” if calls for the genocide of Jews breaks school rules.
Gay and Penn’s president at the time, Liz Magill, resigned from their high-profile positions shortly after the hearing, while footage of the exchanges spread rapidly on social media.
Trump’s attempt to crack down on funding for schools that fail to fight antisemitism or promote critical race theory comes amid intense controversy over an Office of Management and Budget memo announcing a temporary freeze to all federal aid and assistance programs – with potentially trillions of taxpayer dollars halted.

A federal judge on Tuesday paused the freeze in response to a lawsuit brought by nearly two dozen Democratic attorneys general. On Wednesday, the Trump administration rescinded the freeze on federal grants and loans.
In his first term, Trump threatened to strip federal funding from cities that failed to stop anti-police riots that followed the May 2020 murder of George Floyd, but he left office before he could make good on that threat, the Post reported.
JD Vance doubles down on White House’s ‘ambitious’ goal against criminal migrants
Vice President JD Vance said the Trump administration is doing exactly what it said it would with regard to the nationwide U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids targeting migrants who have committed crimes.
Vance told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Wednesday the White House has an “ambitious” goal of getting criminal migrants off the street at a rate of nearly 2,000 per day.
“If you think [about it], we’ve got 20 plus million illegal aliens in this country. We have got to get these people out of our country and regain control of our own border,” he said in a sit-down interview from the nation’s capital on “Hannity.”
The number of migrants arriving at the southern border since Trump took office last week has dropped dramatically by more than 60%.
Data obtained by Fox News Digital shows there were roughly 7,200 migrant encounters in Trump’s first seven days in office, compared to more than 20,000 in former President Biden’s final seven days.
“I guarantee we’re going to cut it even further,” Vance said of the more than 60% decrease. “Policy matters. Elections have consequences and President Trump ran explicitly on regaining control of the border and redelivering American prosperity. That’s exactly what we’re doing.”
Migrants are being repatriated to their home countries, including Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Guatemala and Ecuador.
“The take-home message here is, ‘Not today. Not today, not tomorrow, not next week. Do not come to the United States and enter illegally,’” said U.S. Border Patrol Special Operations Supervisor Hamid Nikseresht after more than 80 illegal migrants were loaded onto a C-17 military plane and deported from El Paso, Texas, back to Ecuador.
Vance took aim at the hysteria from the left over the mass deportation efforts, pointing to Trump’s win in November and his “mandate” from the American people.
“Now he’s doing it,” the former Ohio senator said about Trump’s immigration crackdown. “That’s how democratic politics in this country works and thank God for that.”
The vice president made a shocking admission about the arrests of criminal migrants, telling Hannity the United States government, in some cases, knew their names and addresses.
“We just needed to send somebody to go to their house and get them the hell out of the country,” Vance said.

“We’ve known at least that they had violent criminal backgrounds. And we haven’t done anything until about eight days ago when Donald Trump became the President of the United States again. It really should shock the conscience of the American people.”
House Dem launches attack on WH press secretary Karoline Leavitt
A first-term House Democrat is attacking White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on X after she sought to clarify a White House memo rescinding an earlier policy statement on President Donald Trump’s federal funding order.
“Karoline Leavitt is a Fake Christian, like so many in this Golden Calf administration,” Rep. Dave Min, D-Calif., wrote on Wednesday.
It comes after the White House rescinded an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) memo that ordered the freeze of most federal grants and assistance, which was blocked by a federal judge on Tuesday.
TRUMP DHS REPEALS KEY MAYORKAS MEMO LIMITING ICE AGENTS
Leavitt posted on X that it was just the memo that had been rescinded, and that Trump’s executive orders targeting diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and other progressive spending priorities remained intact.
“This is NOT a rescission of the federal funding freeze. It is simply a rescission of the OMB memo. Why? To end any confusion created by the court’s injunction,” she wrote.
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT DOGE AND ITS QUEST TO SLASH GOVERNMENT WASTE, SPENDING
“The President’s EOs on federal funding remain in full force and effect, and will be rigorously implemented.”
Min’s comments were directed at Leavitt’s aforementioned post.
Earlier, the California Democrat criticized Leavitt’s comments at a White House press briefing in which she said, “DOGE and OMB also found that there was about to be 50 million taxpayer dollars that went out the door to fund condoms in Gaza. That is a preposterous waste of taxpayer dollars.”

Min mocked the senior Trump aide, claiming she was making those remarks “while wearing a giant cross to let everyone know how pious and moral she is, even as she is so comfortable stating a bald-faced lie to hundreds of millions of people.”
He told Fox News Digital in request for further comment, “As a person of faith, I find it appalling that this administration uses religion to advance an agenda while lying through their teeth about what they are doing – allowing children to go to bed hungry, depriving veterans of their earned healthcare, and slashing funding for the police and first responders.”
Fox News Digital reached out to Leavitt for comment.
USDA responds to report that official was escorted from office after Trump firing
The former inspector general of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) was reportedly escorted out of her office Monday after she “refused to comply” with her termination – though the USDA denies that she was forcibly removed.
Phyllis Fong, who has worked for the USDA for 22 years, was fired on Friday, but she reportedly told her colleagues that she planned to continue working. Reuters reported on Wednesday that Fong was removed by security officials and “refused to comply” with her termination.
Before her firing, the government employee said she believed that the newly inaugurated Trump administration was acting improperly by terminating officials so suddenly.
In an email obtained by Reuters, Fong said the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE) had “taken the position that these termination notices do not comply with the requirements set out in law and therefore are not effective at this time.”
INSPECTOR GENERAL DISMISSED BY TRUMP CALLS MASS FIRINGS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY
The USDA, however, denied that security officials were involved in the incident in an email to Fox News Digital on Wednesday night.
“According to an internal security report, Phyllis Fong departed the USDA premises on Monday, January 27 of her own accord,” a spokesperson said. “She was accompanied by two friends who she paused to take selfies with on her way out. Security officials did not play any role in her departure.”
Fong, who was appointed as inspector general by President George W. Bush, also worked for the CIGIE from 2008 to 2014, after being elected the council’s first chairperson. According to the USDA’s website, Fong’s job as inspector general involved “audits, investigations, and other oversight activities relating to USDA’s programs and operations.”
“The Office of Inspector General (OIG) provides leadership in promoting economy and effectiveness in USDA programs and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse,” the description reads. “Ms. Fong’s priorities as IG have been to focus OIG’s resources on the protection of public health and safety related to USDA’s mission and operations, and to improve the management and financial integrity of the Department’s programs.”
Since Jan. 20, President Donald Trump has fired several government employees across dozens of agencies. Inspectors general are one of many targeted employees, along with those in DEI roles.
On Saturday, a White House official told Fox News that 17 independent watchdogs at various federal agencies were sacked late Friday. The inspectors general worked for the Defense Department, State Department and Energy Department, in addition to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Department of Veterans Affairs and more.
TRUMP SAYS IRON DOME CONSTRUCTION WILL BE ‘IMMEDIATE,’ SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER
At the time, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, expressed concern that the sudden firings may have violated federal law that requires the president to give 30 days’ notice to Congress of intent to fire independent watchdogs, according to The Associated Press.
“There may be good reason the IGs were fired. We need to know that if so,” Grassley, the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said in a statement. “I’d like further explanation from President Trump. Regardless, the 30 day detailed notice of removal that the law demands was not provided to Congress.”

Ten bloodthirsty Tren de Aragua gangbangers busted in America’s biggest city
Ten alleged members and associates of the bloodthirsty Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) have been indicted in a massive arms and drugs-running operation spanning at least six states and prosecutors said they had plans to expand on an international level to Colombia.
In New York City on Wednesday, police said that one of the accused violent migrant gangbangers broke an NYPD officer’s arm after he got into a scuffle during his arrest.
Authorities seized a cache of 34 illegal guns, including AR-15 assault rifles and a Glock 9mm with a trigger modification making it an automatic, tied to the suspects, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said.
NYC RESIDENTS PRAISE ICE RAIDS AFTER VIOLENT GANG MEMBER CAPTURED
Katz said the TDA gang members were also peddling deadly drugs including pink cocaine, a designer street drug that includes a mixture of ketamine, MDMA and ecstasy.
All ten are migrants – including two women – are from Venezuela and entered the country illegally via the southern border, police said.
This subset of the gang was spearheaded by two Venezuelan nationals who came to New York City two years ago and established a gun-running crew that was also comprised of other foreign nationals.
Enyerbert Blanco, 24, the alleged ringleader, has been in custody in Florida since October after being charged in connection with a human trafficking case involving a 15-year-old girl, Katz said.
“We allege that as members and associates, they trafficked weapons and made money in furtherance of TdA’s agenda and as they seek to establish themselves in New York City, we are individually dismantling them,” Katz said.
Katz said the investigation, dubbed Operation Train Derail, began more than a year ago and was carried out by her office and the NYPD.
Five of the 10 are charged with two counts of criminal sale of a firearm and face up to 25 years in jail if they are convicted.
The remainder are variously indicted on firearm possession charges and other crimes. They face a maximum of 15 years in prison. All ten of them are charged with conspiracy to possess and sell illegal firearms in New York City.
NOEM SAYS ‘WORST OF THE WORST’ ARRESTED IN NYC RAID TARGETING CRIMINAL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
Four are now in custody in New York City, while four others are behind bars outside the state, including two in Texas and two in Florida. The others are still on the loose. Their illicit operation also spanned Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Colorado, Katz said.
Katz didn’t say whether ICE would be deporting the suspects, insisting she was treating the operation as a gun-running case.
She said that the group were brazen in gun dealings.
“In one instance, the defendant transported an AR-15 wrapped in a black garbage bag for sale in the Bronx County. This buy occurred at 3:45 p.m. in front of a residential building.”
Five other firearm buys – between Oct. 30 through Dec. 10 – took place inside a Target car park in College Point, in Queens.
The going rate for an assault weapon is $2,500 to $2,800, while loaded operable handguns sold between $1,200 and $1,800, she said.
“This group was very entrepreneurial. They really made sure that this business was run like a clock,” Katz said. “They stole firearms that were proceeds of burglaries and car break-ins from other states. They relied on use of rental vehicles to come up the iron pipeline and sell them to people in the city of New York. They were aware that they could make money in the city of New York, and they even discussed potentially smuggling them into Columbia due to the success of this investigation.”
NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said that the injured officer is set to have surgery after this week and separate charges will be filed.
“TDA is a dangerous transnational gang that has specialized in murder, trafficking, and mayhem,” NYPD Commissioner Jessica S. Tisch said. “The NYPD will always work with our federal and our local partners to take down international gangs like TDA, who would wreak havoc on this city.”
Some of the TDA members indicted include Wrallan Meza, 27; Leoner Aguilera, 21; Brayant Aguilar, 21; Rosemary Sanchez, 24; Enyerling Zambrano, 29; Alejandro Rondon, 19, and Oscar Sosa, 31.

The bust in Queens came a day after immigration raids in the Bronx which saw gang member Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, 26, picked up by Drug Enforcement Administration and U.S. Homeland Security Investigations.
Zambrano-Pacheco is wanted by police in Aurora, Colorado, for first-degree burglary and menacing with a firearm from an Aug. 18, caught-on-camera incident where police say he and five other armed men are accused of breaking into an apartment at gunpoint.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem tells Fox News that Zambrano-Pacheco is also wanted in part of a gun weapons exchange and was trying to buy grenades. Police say he’s also been charged with kidnapping, extortion, and menacing.
Washington AG scolds Republicans demanding Costco ditch DEI
Washington state’s attorney general is standing by Costco as the retail giant resists conservative pressure to ditch its diversity, equity and inclusion practices.
This week, 19 Republican attorneys general sent a letter to Costco, urging the retail giant to end “all unlawful discrimination imposed by the company” through its “divisive” DEI policies.
The attorney general for Washington state, where Costco’s headquarters are located, defended the company and fired back at the Republican effort.
“I’m surprised by my Republican colleagues’ eagerness to weaponize the government against business,” Washington Attorney General Nick Brown, a Democrat, told Fox News Digital. “We don’t believe in punishing private companies for making decisions that protect and enhance their workforce.”
COSTCO SHAREHOLDERS REJECT ANTI-DEI MEASURE
Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird, who led the 19-state effort against Costco alongside Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, vowed to “look at all available options” to ensure the business is following federal and state laws regarding race-based or gender identity-based hiring practices.
“Costco needs to show us the proof that they are following the law because they have public statements that cause us great concern,” Bird said Wednesday to Fox News. “Many other big retailers have changed their policies and are now following federal law, just like President Trump is doing with his executive orders rooting out DEI, so they need to show us they’re following the law.”
Attorneys general from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska and North Dakota also signed the letter, which gives Costco 30 days to respond.
The letter comes on the heels of Trump signing an executive order targeting DEI in the federal government and encouraging the private sector to end these “illegal” practices.
TRUMP’S DISMANTLING OF DEI IS DEEPER AND BIGGER THAN YOU KNOW
COSTCO BOARD MEMBERS DONATED HEAVILY TO DEMOCRATS IN 2024 ELECTION CYCLE
The order tasks the attorneys general with rooting out sectors and organizations that allegedly engage in discriminatory DEI practices. Recommendations will be made for potential lawsuits against violators.
Major companies like Target, McDonald’s and Walmart have backed off from their DEI policies in recent months amid growing scrutiny over these policies.
Costco has thus far resisted these challenges and defended DEI values as critical to the success of its business.
“We owe our success to the more than 300,000 employees who serve our members every day. It is important that they all feel included and appreciated and that they transmit these values to our customers,” Costco board chair Hamilton “Tony” E. James said at the shareholder meeting Thursday.
At that meeting, Costco shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by a conservative shareholder group to evaluate the risks posed by its DEI practices to the company’s bottom line.
James said that the company’s “commitment to inclusion” neither compromises merit nor includes quotas or systematic preferences.
WALMART FACING BACKLASH OVER DEI POLICY REVERSAL AS SHAREHOLDERS AND DEM OFFICIALS URGE THEM TO RECONSIDER
Constitutional law attorney and Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley told Fox News Digital on Wednesday that, “absent an unlawful policy, businesses have the right to make their own employment decisions within the parameters of the law.”
“That includes mandatory training on DEI. Customers obviously have the right to make their own judgment in purchases, as shown by the response to Bud Light and Disney. However, state AGs need to be mindful of the countervailing speech and other rights afforded to corporations and organizations,” he added in an emailed statement.

Fox News Digital reached out to the offices of the remaining 30 state attorneys general that did not sign off on the letter to Costco to ask if they would be taking any action, for or against the business, after Trump’s executive order.
A spokesperson for Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita told Fox News Digital, “Attorney General Rokita stands firmly against unlawful DEI practices and supports President Trump’s actions to end them in corporate America.”
Maryland Attorney General Anthony G. Brown’s office referred Fox News Digital to his letter, co-signed by 13 Democratic attorneys general earlier this month, urging Walmart to keep its commitment to DEI. The letter was also signed by the attorneys general of California, Connecticut, Hawai’i, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont.
Iowa AG Bird did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment by publication time.
