As a three-year-old, she tried out for several but was told she didn’t have elite talent.

Sienna’s mother, Rachelle Chase Piro, had gotten Volyanskaya to agree to see her daughter through a friend but she was nervous about taking her to the rink. The then-seven-year-old was athletically behind other skaters her age and the coach was already working with several high-profile athletes.

Piro worried her daughter wouldn’t make the cut, she told The Independent in a phone call.

The president said on Thursday he would be meeting with some of the families of victims of the tragedy, which occurred at Ronald Reagan Airport Wednesday night. All 67 people involved in the crash are presumed dead, authorities said previously.

Mourners for the victims of the deadly aircraft collision above Washington, D.C. visited the crash site Sunday, ABC News reports.

All 67 people who were on board both aircraft are presumed dead.

“They’re all just hurt and they want answers, and we want to give them answers,” National Transportation Safety Board member J. Todd Inman said. “It’s horrible. No one has to suffer this.”

Members of the Army Corps of Engineers are preparing to begin removing the American Airlines jet from the Potomac River on Monday, before moving to the Black Hawk helicopter.

Crews have recovered and identified 55 of the 67 victims presumed dead in the aircraft collision over Washington D.C., officials said Sunday.

This comes after mourners gathered on the banks of the Potomac River Sunday to honor those killed in the deadly crash.

A single controller was left to handle the air traffic of planes and helicopters flying over the airspace when two people would typically be monitoring both flight paths, sources told NBC.

King Charles has said he is “profoundly shocked and saddened” after an army Black Hawk helicopter collided with a commercial plane in Washington D.C., killing 67 people.

“Our hearts, and our special thoughts, are with the people of the United States and our deepest sympathy goes to the families and loved ones of all the victims,” Charles said in a statement released by Buckingham Palace on Saturday.

“I would also like to pay a particular tribute to the emergency responders who acted so quickly to this horrendous event.”

“The president made very clear that he wasn’t blaming anybody, but he was being very explicit about the fact that DEI policies have led our air traffic controllers to be short-staffed,” Vance told Fox News on Sunday. “That is a scandal. Thankfully, it’s a scandal that the president has stopped.”

All 67 people on both aircraft are believed to be dead, and the cause of the collision is still under investigation.

When asked why he was now blaming efforts to recruit people with disabilities during a White House press conference, Trump replied: “Because I have common sense, okay, and unfortunately, a lot of people don’t,” he said.

Vance said it’s important officials “investigate everything” but doubled down on his claims that “DEI policies” may have impacted air traffic control.

“Let’s just say the person at the controls didn’t have enough staffing around him or her because we were turning people away because of DEI reasons,” Vance said.

“There is a very direct connection between the policies of the last administration and short-staffed air traffic controllers,” he added.
