It’s important to keep track, even if it’s unrelated. And he does not hesitate to make it a political issue related to DEI.

All of our lives are on the line with this guy in charge

doctorshaw.bsky.social•23 days ago

Partisan imbeciles running an agency that has ensured passengers’ safety for decades under prior leadership. DEI has nothing whatsoever to do with the current inadequacy.FOR SHAME.

Did you get the former secretary of transportation on your show today?

This is precisely why Trump is trying to put the blame elsewhere. He always does.

Raping and pillaging

Sure, Donald is a selfish a**hole but even with that I read that the Blackhawk pilot didn't follow directions from the Air Traffic Controller. Why not?

Listen to:
(NTSB) National Transportation Safety Board
…independent body
…investigate aviation accident/transportation
…determine the probable causes
…investigate/issue safety recommendations
…safety research studies
…assist family/survivors
…appellate authority FAA/Coast Guard

Apartheid Clyde pressured FAA head Michael Whitaker to resign because he fined SpaceX over $600,000 in civil penalties for failing to follow license requirements during two launches in 2023. https://newrepublic.com/post/190942/faa-no-leader-dc-plane-crash-elon-musk

….DEI 🙄

ftl-empathy.bsky.social•23 days ago

Here's another vital data point:

Every speech, every comment, every aside, every allusion, every syllable out of Trump's mouth (and his sycophantic appointees) contains some form of racist dog whistle or just flat out racism and misogyny.

Racism/misogyny is THE talking point of this administration

zovicememoir.bsky.social•23 days ago

We all need to say this 1000 times. This is an absolute failure of the trump administration. SAY IT!!!

sggarbo.bsky.social•23 days ago

Tragically, the is the beginning of the body count of trump's inept, reckless, bigoted, corrupt, IDIOTIC "leadership" for the next four years. From his key cabinet appointees to his illogical attack on DEI, he cares nothing about human lives as he seeks to destroy this country.

sbowers.bsky.social•23 days ago

This is the story and it should be everywhere.

abbybarn.bsky.social•23 days ago

This was the result of Trump and his Republican cohorts reckless and incompetent leadership. Trump Republicans are allowing Trump to fill important, lifesaving positions with unqualified people. Furthermore,Trump’s erratic behavior is showing us just how dangerous these next four years can be.

ducknation.bsky.social•23 days ago

Journalist need to put Trump in his place...honest to God. This collisions is because of DEI. It's Biden's fault he lowered standards. I clearly don't believe that. But Journalists need to present the Truth about the standards the last 4 years in the military flying and FAA.

pnwkidwrangler.bsky.social•23 days ago

Every single person that interacts/interviews him that is of sound mind and body needs to call him out. Every. Single. Time. No more of this polite BS.

misstrish.bsky.social•23 days ago

Trump OWNS this, Joy. We must hold him responsible and remind him and his followers. Often.

The Convicted Felon and Rapist is Responsible for this disaster

gordonbsmith.bsky.social•23 days ago

Let’s be absolutely clear (and I say this as someone with over 40 years of military and civilian aviation experience) this accident had NOTHING to do with any of the above.

gordonbsmith.bsky.social•23 days ago

The NTSB will investigate and I predict, given the communication we’ve already heard, that the crew of the help failed in their responsibility to “see and avoid”.

gordonbsmith.bsky.social•23 days ago

“Helo” not help

lacywardjr.bsky.social•23 days ago

Pilots stay up on current events just like everyone else. The events listed here do affect moral and job performance. Neither civil servants nor military personnel perform their best in chaos. The constant attacks on America's governmental workforce is having a detrimental effect.

gordonbsmith.bsky.social•23 days ago

Agreed - AND pilots are professionals steeped in the art of compartmentalization. This was human error. (I’m a former Air Boss)

lacywardjr.bsky.social•23 days ago

Perhaps I should have opened with "Pilots and controllers" as opposed to "Pilots" only. They are a team, and having worked in CATCC I should have noted that. After all it's the controllers who have born the brunt of attacks from the Whitehouse. Let's hope POTUS can pull back on the attacks.

fancyfairyangela.bsky.social•23 days ago

Okay but why did they fail to 'see and avoid'?

gordonbsmith.bsky.social•23 days ago

We may never know. Military choppers don’t have cockpit voice recorders so the internal crew conversation leading up to the crash will never be known.
