Compare the resumes of this guy and his predecessor—FFS—this is not a world leading country we’re in right now it’s a circus that’s masking the tragedy that it truly is.
This is an easy one. I would not have taken the position. Why would I want the country to suffer due to my incompetence? We all know whether we are qualified or not, well... non-MAGAs know.
Well said. Trump’s firing of the FAA Director and the Federal Aviation Security Advisory Council happened just last week. How skillfully will a major military confrontation with Russia or China be handled by “idiot for Trump”,Pete Hegseth, rather than a qualified General Loyd Austin in charge?
Trump’s blockage of all federal grants happened just two days ago leading to chaos all over the place including Medicaid and SNAP. It got blocked by a judge and then was disavowed by the administration yesterday. I can’t wait until every US agency head is an “idiot for trump”.
I’m waiting for one of the INsane to get adversely impacted by one thing or another as a result of his changes (prices, jobs, illness) & do our bidding for us.
I think with 28 deaths (so far) after a tragic accident, a president could perhaps order the flags to be flown to half-staff. But he hates it when the pictures show sadness...WHEN HE IS THE PRESIDENT. Sad…
If Kamala Harris were president right now, he would be sitting at the golf club, cranking out post after post, screaming about her incompetence and rallying his MAGA masses. And the GOP? The same. But in 2025 GOP and MAGA 👇
Holy fuck! Can anyone in this administration speak coherently and articulately without spewing nonsensical bullshit?? It just shows how unqualified and unprepared they are for the gravity of the positions they hold!
No shite, Sherlock. It’s also not standard for a new administration to ask the head of the FAA to step down and mess with air traffic controllers’ staffing levels.
Huh, and here I thought that all the millions of other flights had been flown by incompetent pilots who kept missing each other was by mistake. Who knew it was intentional?! Gtk
Oh lovely. Glad to have a well spoken and erudite leader in charge of our transportation safety. Brilliant, I’ll be looking forward to long walks on sidewalks and staycations for the foreseeable future.
There is always someone highly qualified who is assigned to temporarily be an acting administrator of any agency while a full time replacement is being found so yes there was an acting administrator.
Well you can rest assured, that whatever the plan is, will entail a helluva lotta thoughts and prayers. But at the same time I wouldn’t rule out glue sniffing or an inflatable emergency blowup pilot either.
Here's the thing. All the people that have been dreaming of "tearing it all down" and destroying the federal government, who's function it is to oversee the agencies tasked with keep us safe - this was the first domino to fall. Air safety. You are LUCKY you weren't on that plane. What will be next?
I told my partner that the US is going to become home to organized crime and violent crime will skyrocket, with the Dept. of Justice gutted, who's going to stop them from moving in.
DOJ is broken anyway, they couldn't even get insurrection to trial. 🤷♂️ Let's just bring back the guillotine... it even fits into their "cost slashing" and resumption of executions on day 1 plan...
As a wise person once said, "Ok, you want to burn your house down? Great! You know what you are then? Homeless, dumbass, and all your shit is destroyed! Where's your plan for something that makes sense? Or don't you have one?"
Or offer up the Soviet era wasteland they’ve created to to their overlord Putin, who’s made no secret of his deep resentment of America and its freedoms.
I totally understand, I do it all the time. Plus, sometimes autocorrect comes up with some whacky replacement for words that you actually spelled correctly, but the AI isn't familiar with.
Trump has no plans. Not ever.
He doesn't care about trivial things like "safety" or "American lives" when he's too busy feeling special and hurting people he's afraid of.
But the Senate has responsibilities, and oversight
So far, the Republicans MOCs are derelict and AWOL
And that's what I told both of my senators when I called them this am, and told them if they don't do something, they should expect more midair collisions, and it would be on them
Republicans have built an entire media ecosystem on the lie that government is always the problem and that they should be allowed to break it.
Well, breaking the government, it turns out, results in things like dead children falling from the sky into the Potomac. That's what Republicans have done.
Never, ever let it be forgotten that the day Duffy moved into the Real World Boston firehouse and found out he had two black rommates and a lesbian, he got hives so bad they had to take him to the ER and he nearly got replaced on the cast.
Seriously, Duffy was a cast member of Real World back when? OMG, then a member of the Congress and now head of Dept. of transportation.
Unbelievable! No wonder he had a hard time communicating beyond his sound bites.
He was pretty benign on the show, had a "I'm a dumb guy from Wisconsin experiencing big city life" arc. He met his baby maker wife on a later season of Road Rules, and she had always been a harcore R but his shift was a surprise to everybody when he ran. He wants to be President.

But, damn . . .
satire is becoming reality
doom ?????
But yeah, satire becoming reality tells you just what kind of shit show is happening with felon turnip at the helm.
But I’ll amend my comment to say Brits and Aussies do humour the best! Because this was fucking funny! ☺️
His adding "I want to be clear on that" really elevates his commitment to safety.
Sean Duffy, official idiot for trump.
Credit where credit is due
It seems you don't trust Donald Trump.

No more tolerating assholes because they’re from another age, or they mean will, just are misled.
And start arming yourself. The fight will find us.
NO SHIT SHERLOCK!!!!!!
who is this 🤡 ?????
Don’t tell me he is a TV personality. Please say it isn’t so… please!
Never liked him on Real World. Or his wife.
Meanwhile, the president prefers to tweet, rather than to address the matter personally.
State the obvious
That is all.
And he starts by stating the obvious...
So why was there just one traffic controller dealing with both aircraft’s and helicopters during high volume traffic?
And we are firing highly qualified people from critical jobs?
No wonder why a plane and helicopter crashed…
*what an utter knob
as in “ what he said is the dumbest Ass-Toot so far”
Thank you
Excellent comment, Sir.
This will not be the last.
FFS.
We know its not standard man... thats your job to figure out wtf happened.

How about forcing out the head of the FAA?
How about firing the Aviation Safety Advisory Committee?
Bonus Q: WTF is he going to do to ensure there aren't more midair collisions?
Where's his plan?
Ships
Automobiles
and by homes, i mean the entire civic foundation of our country*
(*and also our literal homes.)

Although the cynic in me thinks far too many MAGAts would miss the humor and think this is a news report.
Unbelievable! No wonder he had a hard time communicating beyond his sound bites.
Wonder if a Dem will win his seat from WI in a special election?
this guy will never be president, jsut his fantasy
