SAY IT - you on the take hacks - SAY IT - DOGE CUT THE FUNDING TO THE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS. DOGE HACKED THE FAA FOR THE KREMLIN. SAY IT, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.
Some of those controllers ended up in tears and on medical leave due in part to emotional distress from trump's purchaser Elon Musk's disruptions in staffing.
“With the grants we’re announcing today—nearly $1 billion in total—we're helping modernize 125 airports across the country in order to make their operations safer, more accessible, and more convenient for travelers.”
Then do your fing job and write about the reasons for it.
Put the blame where it belongs: DOGE & the clown car admin.
It is NOT a coincidence that things in air traffic go downhill after firing hundreds of people more or less randomly in the FAA, creating a ton of uncertainty in the whole sector.
3 of 14 - Are these are the numbers left when you fire everyone who's not white or male? If so, there aren't enough qualified white folk out there to run an airport, let alone a country.
No it hasn’t been this way. There’s only 3 of 14 due to cuts to the FAA, genius. You’re actually stupid enough to defend cutting the FAA and expecting air travel to improve. Fucking moron
News for Duffydumbfuck--guess who fired people at the FAA and cut the budget for radar maintenance and spare parts--
it sure as hell it wasn't Biden and Buttigieg
It's too bad the transportation department fired a whole generation of new air traffic controllers because they were on probation. They could've helped in this situation.....
"The F.A.A. moved that work from a facility in Long Island, N.Y., to the one in Philadelphia last summer in the hopes that relocating to a more affordable area would help in hiring more controllers."
It's all done for affordability.. NVM the now fired DEI hires did the support work
My kid flew out of Newark last night, 8 pm flight delayed to 1am. I shudder to think how many air traffic controllers were working on a Sunday night, if there’s barely 3 on Monday. It’s unfair to everyone involved.
"The goal is 14"? Seriously, what does that even mean? That just sounds like an aspiration. It would be better to know what is the minimum operating requirement for safety.
It's not incompetence, we all know what it is, media knows too but it is too afraid to call it for what it is! Newark is pilot project with the aim to be expanded all over the Country
Would be great if you mentioned likelihood that the musk/trump attacks on gov employees had something to do w this. I’m guessing chances are well above zero.
What they do instead is transcribe Duffy's press conference, but not before setting up the ability to cast blame on Biden by saying this is a result of last summer's changes.
The New York Times is being dishonest to its readers by not providing critical framing.

Fascinating! Maybe you should talk about why that is happening and do actual quality journalism! If you’re gonna have a paywall, you should talk about *why* these things are happening.
… which was why I retired the day I was able to do so about 4 yrs ago. This is nothing new. “Safety was never compromised”. We have been understaffed and overworked for decades. It’s all coming to a head.
Maybe don’t fire the head of the FAA, engineers, and safety experts. Maybe don’t ask air traffic controllers to resign. Maybe continue the work Buttigieg was doing actually increasing the number of air traffic controllers. Maybe don’t ignore the in-process plan that Buttigieg handed you.
You can thank the GOP for everything going wrong in this country. Traitors each and everyone and always blaming what they do on someone else. Nothing but lies and stupidity.
I feel so bad for the ATCs. That job is stressful enough w/o the Trump-created sh*t show of staff cuts and damaged systems. A General Strike is looking ever more essential.

Oh wait a minute that was Trump & Elon Musk with his DOGE teenagers.

Finally ... some peace and quiet!

Otherwise, nothing.
Everything they touch turns to shit.

Burn it to the ground.
The problem was the biden administrations DEI policies

Now $$$$ needs to be spent to fix it.
Someone is going to make a lot of money.

Second is offer the premeditated solution: use AI as traffic controllers.
This is Musk and the tech bros.
And yeah.
