Black Boxes Recovered As Trump Blames Washington Air Crash On Diversity And Equality Policies

Black boxes have been recovered from a plane which collided with a military helicopter above Washington DC.

Officials say divers will begin operations to salvage the aircraft, after they both plunged into the Potomac River on Wednesday night - killing all 67 people on board.

Without evidence, Donald Trump blamed air traffic controllers, the helicopter pilots and Democratic policies.

He also claimed - without any proof - that workers with "severe intellectual disabilities" were being hired through a diversity drive.
