Jarring footage captured the moment two Navy fighter jets collided in midair and crashed to the ground during an air show in Idaho on Sunday. The clip obtained by Fox News showed the two EA-18G Growler jets hitting each other about two miles north of the Mountain Home Air Force Base, where the Gunfighter Skies Air Show was taking place for the second straight day. Viewers could see the two jets look like they were locked in a momentary wrestling match in the sky before both turned downward; flames and smoke then started to burst from the jets as they plummeted to the ground. The site of four parachutes bursting open as the planes crashed could also be seen. Big Weekend Show co-host Jason Chaffetz reported the good news that all four crew members successfully ejected and were being treated by medical personnel. “Miraculous,” Chaffetz added. “Thank goodness those four were able to eject. Amazing.” A huge plume of smoke could be seen on camera after the two planes hit the earth. The crash happened around 12:10 Mountain Time. Local cops announced the rest of the event was canceled about an hour later. Attendee David Katz told Fox News Digital that he and his family “saw the smoke and fireball” when the two plans collided. “One of the planes was impacted and started burning in the air,” he added. Sunday’s crash comes a few days after a U.S. Air Force pilot told CNN about the “pretty miraculous” rescue of 11 plane crash survivors off the coast of the Bahamas.

The Associated Press Fresh off his successful campaign to primary Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), President Donald Trump turned his attentions back to Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) by declaring that he, too, “must be thrown out of office.” Cassidy came in third place behind Trump-backed Rep. Julia Letlow and Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming in Saturday’s primary. Trump has been gunning for Cassidy ever since he voted to convict Trump in the second impeachment trial related to the J6 riots. Massie, a deficit hawk who refused to vote in favor of Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, and who worked hand-in-hand with Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) to expose the Epstein files, has been on Trump’s list nearly his entire time back in office. “Third Rate Congressman Thomas Massie, a Weak and Pathetic RINO from the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky, a place I love, and won big SIX TIMES, including all Primaries, must be thrown out of office, ASAP!” Trump wrote on Sunday. “He is the Worst ‘Republican’ Congressman in History, voting against Tax Cuts, the Wall, Law Enforcement, and in favor of the Transgender Mutilization of our Children, Men playing in Women’s Sports, and so many more horrible things,” Trump continued. “The incredible people of Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District gave us a mandate to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and the person that will help us do that is Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Fifth Generation Kentucky Farmer, Captain Ed Gallrein, a true America First Patriot.” Trump added, “The Great People of Kentucky are wise to Massie — He only votes against the Republican Party, making life very easy for the Radical Left. Unlike ‘lightweight’ Massie, a totally ineffective LOSER who has failed us so badly, CAPTAIN ED GALLREIN IS A WINNER WHO WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN.” A new independent poll of 86 Northern Kentucky voters found 48.3% planned to vote for Gallrein, while 43.1% supported Massie, and another 7.6% were undecided. However, on ABC News’s This Week With George Stephanoupolos Sunday, Massie said he was confident in his chances. “You can tell that I’m ahead in the polls and they’re desperate,” Massie said of the Trump administration. “That’s why they’re sending the secretary of war to my district tomorrow. That’s why the president’s losing sleep and tweeting about this. That’s why AIPAC has dumped another $3 million into my race this weekend — is because they’re panicked, and they really haven’t been… [TheTopNews] Read More.44 mins ago - CNN Reporter Raises Concerns Trump Is Pushing ‘White Christian Nationalism’ ...CNN Senior Writer John Blake said the Rededicate 250 prayer event in Washington, D.C. was a clear symbol of how President Donald Trump’s administration is “pushing” what he called “white Christian nationalism.” Blake made the claim during a conversation with CNN host Fredricka Whitfield on Sunday afternoon, right as the CNN broadcast was showing House Speaker Mike Johnson (R) giving a speech at the event. The day-long prayer rally at the National Mall also featured video addresses from Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as well as speakers like Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. “I think what you’re seeing is that there’s a certain kind of movement called white Christian nationalism,” Blake said when Whitfield asked what he made of the event. “It’s been around for centuries in this country. It’s mutated, become certain things, but white Christian nationalism has never had this access to political power. It now has it with President Trump.” He said others in the administration “subscribe to these beliefs” as well, “and because of that, it’s now front and center. He’s pushing this.” Blake added there have been presidents in the past like Jimmy Carter who were open about their faith. But he said “No one has ever pushed explicitly this Christian nationalism, and that’s whaat President Trump is doing.” Trump read a Bible passage during his speech on Sunday. Watch below via Fox News: President Trump recited a passage from 2 Chronicles 7 during Sunday’s “Rededicate 250” celebration on the National Mall, including the well-known verse urging people to “humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways.” The verse is often cited by… pic.twitter.com/9UPr7vBao0 — Fox News (@FoxNews) May 17, 2026 And Vance celebrated that a “wave” of young Americans are returning to church in his address to the crowd, which also gave a shout out to Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. Evangelical preacher Franklin Graham was a bit less optimistic in his speech to the crowd, though. Graham lamented that America was “morally rotten” and “completely sick with sin” because it had embraced transgenderism and gay marriage.

- Trump Mocks Political Rivals in Social Media Flurry, Including Pic of Gavin News...
(Photos via Mark Schiefelbein for AP and Truth Social) President Donald Trump digitally whacked a number of familiar political rivals on Sunday during a social media posting spree that included posting a picture of California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) looking terrified inside a mental institution. The president shared that post — and several others — on his Truth Social platform. Newsom — whom Trump often calls “Newscum” — is surrounded by the president’s name while huddled in a padded room in the fake picture: Trump had similar posts in store for other foes as well. He bashed Illinois Gov. JB Pritzer (D) and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) in another post that was titled “Dumb and Dumber: The Illinois Government.” The picture was an obvious parody of the 1994 flick “Dumb and Dumber,” and showed a sweaty and red-faced Pritzker wagging his tongue alongside Johnson. Both Dems ripped the president for his crackdown on crime and illegal immigration last year, with Pritzker comparing ICE raids to Nazi Germany. More recently, the governor said Trump “set the tone” for political violence in the U.S. – 10 days after he was targeted in another assassination attempt. Trump also had a post for House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). Trump’s picture of “Low IQ” Jeffries showed the congressman in a white suite and gold chain holding a fistful of dollars while a trash-filled New York was wrecked by gun violence and burning buildings around him. That post followed the president recently saying Jeffries should be booted from Congress; Trump was upset with Jeffries branding the Supreme Court “illegitimate” for ruling race-based gerrymandering violates the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Trump also posted the following meme making fun of ex-President Barack Obama. The meme showed Obama — mimicking an old Drake meme that has made the rounds on social media — being upset at a mostly-Republican map of the South; the meme said Obama viewed it as “Jim Crow 2.0,” but then was happy at a mostly-Democrat map of the North, which was captioned “democracy.” Like Jeffries, Obama criticized the Supreme Court’s recent ruling that overturned a majority-Black district in Louisiana.The post Trump Mocks Political Rivals in Social Media Flurry, Including Pic of Gavin Newsom in a Mental Asylum first appeared on Mediaite.

China said there was a guarantee by the u.s. to supply aircraft engines, but it didn’t mention the 400 to 450 G.E. engines the president announced. G.E. hasn’t commented either. How locked in are these agreements? “So the 200 Boeings, those are locked in,” Greer answered. “There’s obviously a future to have more Boeings. The reality is, this is the first major purchase by China in almost 10 years…And like the president said, you know, when Boeing delivers, there’s a lot of upside there. With respect to some of the other details, we’re finalizing a fact sheet that we’ll hopefully get out very soon so we can be clearer about the double-digit increase in agriculture purchases we expect from the Chinese.” Brennan next hit Greer with a Wall Street Journal opinion piece questioning Trump’s assertions on soybean sales. “On the [agricultural] products, the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board questioned whether the summit achieved any of the stated wins because of how vague these things have been,” Brennan began. “They said Mr. Trump boasted about the ‘fantastic’ Chinese purchases of U.S. soybeans and aircraft, but China didn’t confirm the sales. ‘And by our count, this is the second time China has bought the same American soybeans, or is it the third?’ They’re kind of arguing you’re playing a shell game here with like re-announcing past deals on past agreements to purchase over a period of time. Can you answer these conservative skeptics with any specifics?” “So, first of all, we’ve had had a deal in place with the Chinese since October that they would buy 25 million metric tons of soybeans for each year of the president’s administration, so that deal is still in force,” Greer answered. “What we expect with the new purchase agreements, where the specific number will be announced very soon — double-digit purchases of aggregate agricultural products. When I say aggregate, I mean… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
