Man ‘dedicated to white supremacist ideology’ arrested in alleged plot to attack Nashville energy facility with drone
He’s charged with attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempted destruction of an energy facility. The following month, Philippi introduced the idea for the energy facility plot to another confidential source, it says. With undercover FBI agents posing as accomplices, Philippi in September allegedly conducted “a reconnaissance of the substation,” the complaint states. “Electric utilities have always taken substation security seriously, primarily because of safety,” Patrick C. Miller, CEO of Oregon-based Ampere Industrial Security, which works with utilities to boost their security, told CNN in 2023. In 2020, a drone crashed near a Pennsylvania power substation in what was likely an effort to damage or disrupt the electric equipment, federal law enforcement said.

'New York Times' tech workers go on strike
Technology staffers at the New York Times have gone on strike just hours before Election Day, which could make the paper’s coverage of an incredibly tight presidential contest even tougher. Tech workers at the Times oversee everything from website maintenance to mobile push alerts to the paper’s “election needle.” Should the strike continue into Tuesday, it will be the first time a strike has interacted with a presidential election since 1964. ˆNew York Times said it had plans in place to ensure election coverage saw minimal impacts from the strike and expressed frustration with the timing of the work action. “But management is more willing to risk our election coverage than they are to agree to a fair deal with its workers. The union has not had a contract since it was formed in 2022, but Times officials say the workers it represents are already among the highest-paid at the company, earning an average of $40,000 more per year than members of the Times’ union for journalists.

Boeing factory strike ends as workers vote to accept contract
However, Boeing refused to meet strikers’ demand to restore a company pension plan that was frozen nearly a decade ago. Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said in a message to employees that he was pleased to have reached an agreement. The average annual pay of Boeing machinists is currently $75,608 and eventually will rise to $119,309 under the new contract, according to the company. “You stood strong and you stood tall and you won.”Reactions were mixed even among union members who voted to accept the contract. “Washington is home to the world’s most skilled aerospace workers, and they understandably took a stand for the respect and compensation they deserve,” Inslee said in a statement congratulating the workers.
