Donald Trump fired hundreds of air safety leaders and froze hiring for air traffic controllers. Elon forced the director of the FAA out with no replacement. And a week later, 67 people are dead in the worst commercial aircraft disaster in 16 years.

The Federal Aviation Administration’s preliminary report on the D.C. plane crash goes against everything the president has said thus far.

Elwin wanted the FAA Director out because the director did his job and fined Elon’s exploding rocket ship company for violations. Can’t have that, fumed the Nazi! https://www.firstpost.com/tech/faa-fines-spacex-over-600k-elon-musk-threatens-to-sue-them-13816563.html/amp

I think auto-correct is right: Musk is Elwin the Nazi 😂

He & Leon are trying to cut spending at the cost of aviation safety. Imagine this result all over the US. https://www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/bay-area-airport-losing-air-traffic-controllers-amid-pay-dispute-with-faa/

There was a clear sky with nothing around except a clear vision of the commercial flight which the Blackhawk flew into.
Was there someone on this flight that could have been targeted?

And it could get much worse. Probably not a good time to fly. https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/puts-us-in-limbo-all-air-traffic-controllers-resign-at-hugely-important-airport/ar-AA1y9MDV?ocid=weatherpwa&pc=EMMX01&cvid=0624f594c39f431786549d7f3267c868&ei=19

Let's get it 📈 trending

Whats important is how @foxnewscorporation.bsky.social spins it for Trump and Musk.

Seeing the future is a curse on ones mental health.

But Klobuchar and the Democrats are looking for “common ground”

domiknight.bsky.social•22 days ago

This is what happens when you allow a foreign racist piece of s*** like Elon Musk stick his nose in our government's affairs

brityardie.bsky.social•22 days ago

I know it’s still raw, but I pray there is a class action against the state to force discovery of all the facts let everyone see what really happened

juliemainstreeter.bsky.social•22 days ago

Dems need to take a page out of Trump's playbook. He would have a slogan pinning the blame on Elon by now and his followers would be repeating it in unison. Musk's interference including sending letters to Federal employees to just quit has dire consequences for all of us

Let’s play connect the dots…..

Exactly, and here's a thread I made that could demand action along with protecting LGBTQ+ people, the Trans Community and millions of other marginalised minority individuals:

If you tell employees they are not valued or needed, job performance suffers. Did that contribute to the crash? It could have, and responsible leaders know that.

Damn those black and gay people for doing this!

Trump blaming this on DEI is so ironic since he is the absolute biggest example of a DEI hire in American history

thesameperson.bsky.social•22 days ago

It's not just incompetence. The people running our federal government are mentally disordered. Worse disasters are coming. There's no way a sane country voted for this. They cheated in November - there's no other logical explanation.

barrygoldman1.bsky.social•22 days ago

is the country sane?

thesameperson.bsky.social•22 days ago

I believe the majority of the people in it are and that they recognize the threat Trump represents.
