News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Amy Morris. If the government shutdown continues, air traffic will be cut back. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he'll order scheduled air traffic to be cut by ten percent at forty major airports and.

Speaker 2

The end our sole role is to make sure that we keep this airspace as safe as possible. There is going to be a ten percent reduction in capacity at forty of our locations. This is about where's the pressure and how do we alleviate the pressure.

Speaker 1

Duffy is warning of quote mass chaos next week if the government shutdown continues. We'll have more on that shutdown just ahead, but first we are getting more information about that fiery ups cargo plane crash. NTSB investigators say three people were on board when the plane took off from Louisville bound for Honolulu. ANTSB board member Ja todd Enman says the plane caught fire before takeoff.

Speaker 3

After being cleared for takeoff, a large plume of fire in the area of the left wing occurred during the takeoff roll. The plane lifted off and gained enough altitude to clear the fence at the end of runway seventeen R. Shortly after clearing that fence, it made impact with structures and the terrain off of the airport property.

Speaker 1

Edman says the engine fell off the plane during takeoff. The massive fire consumed the cargo plane and spread to nearby businesses. Investigators say they have recovered the flight data and cockpit voice recorders. The death toll now stands at nine. Officials are afraid it could go higher. The Supreme Court heard arguments today on the legality of most of President Trump's global tariffs. Lawyer Neil Kutel argued against those tariffs on behalf of small business owners.

Speaker 4

This president has torn up the entire tariff architecture and the idea that Congress handed him all this power. That is just not something that any president has ever had the power to do in our history.

Speaker 1

But Solicitor General John Sowerd, defending the tariffs, argues that these tariffs are not attacks. Now, we don't contend that he has, at least in peacetime, inherent tariffing authority. We don't contend that.

Speaker 4

President Trump spoke at a White House breakfast with Senate Republicans who have so far dismissed Trump's filibuster demands. Democrats did register their biggest political victories since their loss to Donald Trump a year ago. New York City elected Zoron Mamdani a Democratic Socialist as its next mayor. He spoke about the lessons learned by the Trump administration.

Speaker 5

I think the lesson for the president is that it's not enough to diagnose the crisis in working class Americans' lives. You have to deliver on addressing that crisis. As a president who ran a campaign on the promise of cheaper groceries and now has gone so far as to cut snap benefits for close to two million New Yorkers, someone who is literally making it harder to afford those same groceries whose price he was decrying not that long ago.
