there were 64 people on board the the american airlines at a news conference, mr trump appeared to blame the diversity employment policies at the federal in the us and claimed his democratic predecessors had been responsible. we must have only the highest standards for those who work i changed the obama standards from very mediocre i put safety first.

daybreak lit up the rescue site, and divers braved given the temperatures, it became clear there were few the fuselage of the american airlines plane was inverted. it's been located in three different sections. of the aircraft. well, this has now switched from a rescue to a recovery effort. to the airport, a bit further down the river here,
