All flights were halted temporarily in and out of Newark Liberty Airport Saturday afternoon when a plane apparently skidded off a runway.
“Due to an airport emergency there are currently no arrivals nor departures from Newark Airport. Please check with your carrier before coming to the airport,” according to the airport’s Twitter feed.
United Airlines Flight 627, which was coming in from Denver, landed on a runway at the airport around 1 p.m., but “then skidded off the left side of the pavement,” a Federal Aviation Administration spokesperson told the Post.
No injuries were immediately reported, authorities said. Service at the airport restarted shortly after 3 p.m.

  President Donald Trump said Friday morning that if Vice President Mike Pence runs for president in 2024, he wouldn’t automatically have his endorsement.
The president was asked the hypothetical during a wide-ranging interview on “Fox & Friends.”
“You’re talking about a long time. You can’t put me in that position,” Trump said, adding that Pence would have his “strong consideration.”
Whether Trump wins reelection in 2020, there will be a long list of Republicans vying for the White House four years later. While the sitting vice president is often considered the heir apparent, there are several other big name Republicans who could edge Pence out such as Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

As you’ve stood in a crowded and confusing mass of people surging toward an airline boarding gate, you’ve probably thought, “There’s got to be a better way to do this.”
Several domestic airlines agree. They’ve introduced new boarding procedures that they claim streamline and speed up the often-frustrating process of lining up and getting onto a flight, from rearranging boarding groups to employing new biometric systems.
“Many of the airline boarding processes don’t work and are a disorganized mess,” says airline analyst George Hobica. “Airlines have an incentive to make them more efficient because they can turn around their flights sooner and keep passengers happier.”

President Donald Trump said Friday that he will not fire White House counselor Kellyanne Conway for repeated violations of the Hatch Act, which bars federal employees from engaging in political activity in the course of their work.
“Well I got briefed on it yesterday, and it looks to me like they’re trying to take away her right of free speech, and that’s just not fair,” Trump said during an interview on Fox News.
His comments came a day after the Office of Special Counsel publicly recommended Conway’s removal from federal office, calling her a “repeat offender.”

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange told a British court Friday that “175 years of my life is effectively at stake,” as a judge ruled that he would face a full extradition hearing in early 2020.
At a largely procedural hearing, Assange appeared via a video link from Belmarsh, a maximum-security prison on the outskirts of London.
Assange sported a shaggy white beard and wore a blue sweatshirt and black-framed glasses. He looked tired. His lawyers said he was receiving medical care at the prison.

President Trump on Friday said former Vice President Joe Biden doesn’t “have what it takes” to become president.
“It means mental capacity, it means a lot of different things,” the president said in a phone call interview with Fox News.
The president predicted the Democratic nomination for president was between the three current Democratic frontrunners: Biden, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
Trump said he’d “love” to run against any of them.

Moderating a panel in Jerusalem this week titled “The Mainstreaming of Anti-Semitism: The Media, BDS and Celebrated Bigotry,” David Hazony, executive director of the Israel Innovation Fund, analyzed the issue right off the bat: “What you are seeing on [North American college] campuses is only a thin slice of the anti-Semitic beast that has emerged in our public life around the world in the last six months, in the last year.”
The event was hosted by the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), in partnership with the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA) and Hazony’s organization.
