- musk pressured the head of faa to resign. that's on day 1, when trump took office. yes, it was a priority because the guy was about to investigate spacex
- next day trump fired the heads of two related offices (transport security, coast guard)
- next day (we're at day 3 only!) a key aviation security advisory committee was disbanded
- day 7: our orange god didn't rest, they froze billions of govt funds, which lasted for like 2 days. they created a completely unnecessary panic within the executive branch
- next day: 2 million federal workers, 10k+ air traffic controllers included, received an email offering them to resign

(and there might be some stuff i don't know about)

they should have known that there are ~3k open air traffic controller positions in the country and they work overtime too. yet within a week, they created chaos, insecurity and even more stress within a profession that requires attention like very few others

and they are blaming it on dei (with the potomac crash, all involved were white straight males, despite all the effort of the right wing media to blame it on a trans military pilot, who's still well and alive so obviously couldn't drive the chopper when the tragedy happened lol) and biden

bottom line is that not all governmental employees are useless. and a country cannot be run like a business for way too many reasons. you can't fire 50% of the staff on day 1 like that imbecile elon did with twitter and not face consequences.

edit: i had like 5 phone calls during typing this post so sorry if it's not fully consistent. bjerknes also gave a shorter, more on point answer in the meantime
Anybody who knows anything about aviation practices will tell you ATC's have always been well vetted and upheld to high standards. I know of two people who used to work as ATC's at IAD as well as an aviation expert at the Pentagon. All of them will tell you the POTUS is being extremely irresponsible when there's already a shortage of FAA employees, not just ATC's. As everyone is going to see, wrecking safety standards under the guise of "necessary deregulation" is going to be the new normal under this government.

the fact that he's ready to openly talk about this speaks volumes about his character

he should have never been elected. shame on everyone who assisted, including democrats who failed to push his prosecution during biden's term. he should be locked up

- - - Updated - - -


no disasters for more than a decade

4th (?) disaster since the imbecile took over and fired everyone because this is still a reality show

but dei and biden
People do stupid things when they’re drunk or scared. But if you wake up the morning after bragging about those things then you need help.

Because Vince McMahon did a tombstone piledriver on Trump with face to his roided balls that left his face permanently orange. Linda has the tape and a job for life despite being useless.

It's basically children as president and chief advisor. Worrying.

But but but but but but Trump was going to end inflation with the stroke of a pen. What happened guys???????

Breaking News: U.S. consumer prices unexpectedly jumped 3% in the year through January, a pickup in inflation that complicates the Fed’s plans.

@Nomuken

This was always about inflation for you, Trump was going to end it as soon as he took office.

What now?
