On Monday, the U.S. Army identified four soldiers killed in a helicopter crash on September 17th. The crash occurred near Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state at approximately 9 p.m. The cause of the crash is under investigation.

The soldiers were assigned to the 4th Battalion of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. The elite team, known as the “Night Stalkers,” conducts nighttime missions.

The Army Times reports the four soldiers are: Chief Warrant Officer 3 Andrew Cully, 35, from Sparta, Missouri; Chief Warrant Officer 3 Andrew Kraus, 39, from Sanibel, Florida; Sgt. Donavon Scott, 25, from Tacoma, Washington, and Sgt. Jadalyn Good, 23, from Mount Vernon, Washington.

“These exceptional warriors … embodied the unwavering dedication, selflessness, and excellence that define the very spirit of the Army and Army Special Operations,” Col. Stephen Smith said in an Army release. “These heroes were not only elite professionals but also cherished teammates, friends, and family members whose absence leaves an immeasurable void.”

Secretary of the Army Hon. Dan Driscoll shared, “It is with profound sadness that we confirm the loss of four brave Soldiers from the 160th SOAR (A) in the Sept. 17 aircraft mishap near Joint Base Lewis-McChord: CW3 Andrew Cully, CW3 Andrew Kraus,
Sgt. Donavon Scott, and Sgt. Jadalyn Good.”

“These Soldiers embodied courage, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to the mission. Their loss is deeply felt across the Special Operations community. We extend our heartfelt condolences to their families, friends, and teammates.”

“We are grateful to the first responders and recovery teams. The legacy of these Night Stalkers will forever live on. Night Stalkers Don’t Quit.”

Cvillerightnow reports that Chief Warrant Officer 3 Kraus was the son of Mission BBQ co-founder Bill Kraus.

Bill Kraus and Steve Newton founded Mission BBQ in 2011, opening their first location on Sept. 11 that year. Beyond barbecue, the company focuses on honoring U.S. service people. It has a long record of donating to charities that support the military and first responders.

Mission BBQ is now a national chain and has 22 locations in Virginia, including one on Lenox Ave. in Charlottesville.

Franklin Graham shared, “Our deepest sympathy to @MissionBBQ co-founder Bill Kraus and the entire family. His 39-year-old son Andrew was one of the four U.S. Army soldiers killed in a helicopter crash during a training mission in Washington State on Wednesday.”

“I have met Bill and I appreciate this family so much—their love for this country and our military is so evident. Every day at noon in all of their restaurants, the kitchen stops, the cash register stops, and all the customers stand at attention with the staff to sing the National Anthem.”

“Will you join with me in praying for this family and the loved ones of the three other service members killed in this tragic accident?”

Vice President JD Vance shared his condolences.

At noon every day, each location stops all activity to sing the National Anthem.

Patriot TV: We Don’t Have to Let the Medical Industrial Complex Control or Kill Us

JD Rucker is not a doctor. He is not offering medical advice. As such, he must state emphatically that you should talk to your health professionals before enacting any lifestyle changes that he discusses today.

With that said, Big Pharma, Big Ag, Big Insurance, and the rest of the Medical Industrial Complex suck. They’ve been built on corporate profit foundations started by people like the Rockefellers and perpetuated through the decades by people like Anthony Fauci. And in my humble, non-medical-professional perspective, they’re trying to control and/or kill us.

The Tylenol-autism declaration yesterday by President Trump and RFK Jr was just a piece of the puzzle. The conspiracies surrounding our so-called “healthcare” are numerous and the money flows in one direction: up. But it’s not just about the money. In fact, the real ringleaders aren’t interested in money outside of its impact on their middle managers. What the Globalist Elite Cabal really wants from medications, treatments, and food is the ability to make us obey or die.

On today’s episode of Patriot TV Premieres, we dove into the infrastructure of the various conspiracies. Then, we highlighted the reality in America, that with our God-given rights and the freedoms we have to choose, we don’t have to bow down to the Medical Industrial Complex. We can and should take more control of our health.

Eat better. Sleep better. Exercise. Find alternatives to Big Pharma poisons. These and other things are within our grasp. We just have to be willing to reach for them.

Even Big Insurance plays a major role, which is why our America First sponsors in insurance are ideal partners as we walk in our journeys to improving our health. Learn more about them at https://patriot.tv/health

President Trump has told Democratic leaders exactly what they needed here as they hold the government hostage and threaten to shut it down altogether: go to h*ll. Moreover, Trump revealed that they essentially want to reverse his entire agenda to keep the government open

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the US Senate on Friday rejected two measures to fund the government as a shutdown loomed. Both measures needed 60 votes to pass.

The Senate rejected a Trump-backed House-passed stopgap bill 44-48 and blocked a Democrat version 47-45. The Trump-backed stopgap bill would have funded the government until November 21.

Following the vote, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blamed Republicans and Trump for the looming shutdown. They also demanded a meeting with Trump.

After considering their request for a meeting, Trump gave them both the stiff arm on Tuesday.

“After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open,” Trump wrote. “I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive.”

“To the Leaders of the Democrat Party, the ball is in your court. I look forward to meeting with you when you become realistic about the things that our Country stands for. DO THE RIGHT THING!” He added.

Trump then revealed Schumer and Jeffries’ full INSANE demands for keeping the government open. It’s even worse than previously reported, with transgender surgery for minors and allowing men to play women’s sports included.

Absolutely shameless.

“They are threatening to shut down the Government of the United States unless they can have over $1 Trillion Dollars in new spending to continue free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!), force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors, have dead people on the Medicaid roles, allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits, try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World, allow men to play in women’s sports, and essentially create Transgender operations for everybody,” Trump wrote.

“I look forward to meeting with them if they get serious about the future of our Nation. We must keep the Government open, and legislate like true Patriots rather than hold American Citizens hostage, knowing that they want our now thriving Country closed. I’ll be happy to meet with them if they agree to the Principles in this Letter. They must do their job! Otherwise, it will just be another long and brutal slog through their radicalized quicksand.”

BREAKING: Nexstar Joins Sinclair Broadcast Group, Pulls Jimmy Kimmel’s Show Off Air After ABC Caves
September 23, 2025

Nexstar Media Group joined Sinclair Broadcast Group and announced it will not air ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ after ABC caved.

Sinclair Broadcast Group on Monday evening announced they won’t broadcast Jimmy Kimmel Live! across its ABC affiliate stations after ABC caved.

Earlier Monday, ABC announced Jimmy Kimmel would be returning to the airwaves just six days after suspending him for lying about Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated at an event at Utah Valley University earlier this month.

Jimmy Kimmel lied to millions of people and claimed Kirk was assassinated by a MAGA conservative.

Fox News reported:

Nexstar Media Group, Inc., announced on Tuesday that it will continue to preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” despite Disney allowing the show to return to ABC.

“We made a decision last week to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve,” the company said in a statement.

“In the meantime, we note that ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ will be available nationwide on multiple Disney-owned streaming products, while our stations will focus on continuing to produce local news and other programming relevant to their respective markets,” Nexstar added.

WATCH: Footage Shows Massive Drone That Disrupted Operations in Copenhagen and Oslo Airports

Ghost Riders in the Sky.

Against the background of the continuing war in Ukraine, a series of aerial incidents have taken place in Europe: from (unarmed) Gerbera decoy drones over Poland, to Russian jets allegedly flying over Estonian airspace (Moscow insists its jets remained over international waters).

Yesterday, another chapter in the ‘threats in the sky’ took place above the Nordic countries, with reports of an unidentified drone (or a group of drones) flying over Danish and Norwegian airspace.

Reuters reported:

“Copenhagen Airport, the busiest in the Nordic region, said it reopened early on Tuesday after drone sightings halted all take-offs and landings for nearly four hours, with Norway’s Oslo Airport also re-opened after it had shut its airspace over a drone.

‘The police have launched an intensive investigation to determine what kind of drones these are’, Copenhagen Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Jakob Hansen told reporters. ‘The drones have disappeared and we have not taken any of them’, he added.”

WATCH: unidentified drone over Oslo airport.

Commissioner Hansen said Danish and Norwegian authorities are cooperating to determine a possible link between the two incidents.

The airspace at Oslo airport in Norway was reopened around 3am local time, according to a spokesperson for Norwegian airport operator Avinor.

The airport shut down operations at midnight due to a drone observation, with flights diverted to the nearest airport.

“Danish police said earlier on Monday that two or three large drones had been seen flying near Copenhagen’s airport, closing it to all traffic.

[…] After it reopened, Copenhagen Airport said on X that delays and some cancelled departures would persist and urged passengers to check with their airlines.”

Four days ago (19), a suspected cyberattack disrupted check-in and boarding systems at London’s Heathrow, as well as the Berlin and Brussels airports.
