WE ALSO REACHED OUT TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION ABOUT THAT POST, AND THEY REFERRED US TO AN OLDER ADVISORY TELLING PILOTS TO USE CAUTION BECAUSE OF HEIGHTENED MILITARY ACTIVITY IN THE AREA. THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN RAMPING UP PRESSURE ON VENEZUELAN PRESIDENT NICOLAS MADURO FOR WEEKS, CARRYING OUT DEADLY STRIKES ON ALLEGED DRUG BOATS IN THE CARIBBEAN SEA AND SENDING ITS MOST ADVANCED AIRCRAFT CARRIER TO THE REGION. IN A CALL WITH TROOPS ON THANKSGIVING, THE PRESIDENT SUGGESTED THEY MAY SOON TAKE ACTION BY LAND. YOU PROBABLY NOTICED THAT PEOPLE AREN’T WANTING TO BE DELIVERING BY SEA, AND WE’LL BE STARTING TO STOP THEM BY LAND. ALSO, THE LAND IS EASIER, BUT THAT’S GOING TO START VERY SOON.

A SIMILAR SCENE PLAYING OUT IN ROCHESTER, MINNESOTA. THE WEATHER LARGELY RESPONSIBLE FOR CANCELING HUNDREDS OF FLIGHTS NATIONWIDE AT CHICAGO’S O’HARE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
