Summary
A day before a deadly midair collision at Reagan National Airport, FAA employees were offered buyouts with eight months’ pay, though air traffic controllers were later deemed ineligible.
The National Air Traffic Controllers Association advised members against accepting, citing a lack of clarity.
The resignation push aligns with Trump’s efforts to cut the federal workforce, raising concerns over staffing shortages in air traffic control.
Experts warn politicized cost-cutting and uncertainty could worsen recruitment, affecting public safety.
Trump controversially blamed diversity hiring for the crash despite no supporting evidence.
What was the fucking plan if all the air traffic controllers took the buyout?
Absolute fucking clown show.
Our absolutely functional rail system
In trump’s america the only thing rail is used for is to deport disabled people and anyone they deem mentally ill to RFK’s “wellness farms”
I never thought I had to explain a public transportation joke about the US
You think US has a functional rail system capable of replacing what airplanes do?
Just wait until the gas chambers are built.
Actions do have consequences…
For some.
RIP 🪦 USA
