Trump’s Plane Makes Emergency Detour Due To Mechanical Issue En Route To Montana

By -

 Former President Donald Trump’s flight to Bozeman, Montana, was interrupted by a mechanical issue Friday, according to multiple outlets, forcing the plane to land at an alternate airport ahead of the former president’s rally in the red state.


The Bozeman-bound plane was diverted due to mechanical issues, The Washington Post reported, citing airport staff at Billings Logan International Airport—the alternative landing site for the plane located about 140 miles east of Bozeman.

An unnamed law enforcement source confirmed the mechanical issue to CBS.

Details of the mechanical issue have not been disclosed by Trump’s campaign, which posted a video of the former president announcing his arrival in Montana.

Trump continued his trip to Bozeman on a private jet, according to the Associated Press.

Trump’s rally is slated for 10 p.m. EDT and will likely be used to voice support for Republican Senate nominee Tim Sheehy, who is running against incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Tester.

Trump endorsed Sheehy for Senate in February in what has become a crucial race for Republicans as they look to regain control of the Senate. A successful flip of Tester’s seat would mark a significant Republican win and remove Tester from the picture after 18 years as a senator—though his previous races have been tightly contested. Trump, who said earlier this year Sheehy is “the candidate who is currently best-positioned” to defeat Tester, won Montana by 16 points in 2020.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league."

"Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions.
