    An American Airlines flight was diverted midair due to a potential security threat onboard, the airline told Newsweek on Sunday.
    Commenting on the incident, American Airlines told Newsweek: "American Airlines Flight AA292, operating from New York to Delhi, has been diverted to Rome due to a potential security threat onboard. We are working closely with local authorities and will provide updates as the situation develops. We appreciate the patience and cooperation of our passengers."

    The aircraft is set to be met by law enforcement upon arrival at Rome's airport, according to a source familiar with the incident. Indian media reported that there was a bomb threat against the aircraft.

    The airline told ABC News that the plane ultimately landed safely in Rome. Videos shared to social media showed the aircraft being escorted by Italian Air Force jets prior to landing.

    Perfect time to be dismantling our intelligence services, fed law enforcement, and security apparatus.

    I was wondering how long it would take this to be spun into an anti Trump thread. Didn't take long did it?

    Not really but looking for any excuse to make any story about trump is.
    The story itself I think should be subject not how can we blame this on Trump from the first reply.

    Yeah, it's just terribly coincidental when you elect a person to do the job and they immediately hand it off so a government contractor can destroy the country while they go play golf, that people might be concerned.

    Especially as this person seems to work for Russia and is actively destroying our security apparatus while talking about how great Russia is.

    Not that Russia isn't trying to cut underseas cables, put bombs on aircraft, and sabotage NATO military equipment, while invading an ally and raping and killing the citizens of that country.

    The intelligence sharing agreements we have with our allies (5 Eyes & 9 Eyes), who provide a significant amount of intelligence.

    Since Europe and Canada are now considered enemies and treated as such, our intelligence feeds from them are probably over.

    Then again, why would anyone share intelligence with Putin pals, Tulsi Gabbard and Donald Trump?

    All of their sources would immediately be in danger.

    Don't be surprised to find this out the hard way!

    They probably think we deserve what we get at this point.

    Nothing of significance. We got rid of DEI. Don’t have black history month. That’s the only changes I’ve seen.

    Not trying to out you… but how could one person know “nothing has changed”. I find that wizard of oz level stuff. Perhaps you are the deep state everyone is looking for? Lay low.
