Trump’s reckless cuts to transportation have grounded more than planes; they’ve grounded a nation, exposing what happens when ego replaces policy and chaos rules the skies.
What about the 90 second total blackout of air traffic controller screens at Newark yesterday?? I heard air traffic controllers didnt show up for work due to the stress this caused. Apparently it caused United to cancel 30 or so flights out if the Newark airport. Imagine. The blue screen of death in front if ATC for 90 seconds!
Hey GOP congress, are you okay with it being dangerous to travel? It’s on you. You can’t blame Biden for this and you can’t just blame Trump. We know who he is, but what are you doing? We’re watching. Silence makes you complicit.
Yep - it certainly is leadership by chaos every single day a shit show - I’d be scared to fly now - it’s not safe period! We can’t give up tho - we need to stand up & fight and get in “Good Trouble”
Excellent writing Michael. People don't talk about this enough. Aviation just CANNOT be improvised. This is a field where you CAN'T make mistakes. Maintenance tech., operations on the ground, airport management, air control traffic and overall international space must be monitored strictly and double/triple checked.
My spouse must travel for work in the States often. To say I am worried when he does, now, is an understatement. I cannot wait for the Felon to be impeached. The whole world will be safer when he stays home golfing. Thank you for speaking up. NO FEAR !
The NAZI Ketamine Addict Muskrat and his DOGE scum come into government and fire necessary workers such as air traffic controllers and it is FUBAR. Pray that nobody gets killed because of the Muskrat who should be in prison next to the Orange Idiot!!!
I am watching with massive frustration and anger . The massive hubris and greed is so in our faces and gleeful. Where were all these sycophants hiding before? How can they not see the drastic ending this shameful coup attempt will have? Am I paranoid to think maybe they mean to destroy it all so Putin can just stroll in?
I wouldn’t be surprised if they try to privatize the dept of transportation…doesn’t a certain somebody already have satellites and junk like that they could add on to?
Trump is a poor excuse for a human being… can’t wait to see him and his immoral ass kissing corrupt administration behind bars!
I hope it happens. Trump does whatever he pleases, and no action is being taken.
Chaos is not leadership. Void of care, wisdom, or respect it is the selfish abyss of cowards and fools fueling their own destruction.

I totally agree!

Good old John Lewis. Too bad he isn’t still with us. 💙

You mean "Felon Musk?"
Love and appreciate you Michael!
And I can’t wait for hurricane season to begin. Since almost 900 people were cut from NOAA.
I absolutely love your analogies. They're funny as hell and make total sense.
I have never been afraid to fly until now.
“Goverment by tantrum”
Even private planes depend on air traffic controllers.

This guy has the same education you get with his stepped away system.
...and then there is all the other evil spawned by this monster...
