Instead of honoring a title, let us honor a quality - he/she who can lead with kindness and compassion without bias or greed would be truly greatly loved. He/she who saves our planet would save us all.
Good morning @petebuttigieg.bsky.social can I ask the why as to why planes are crashing left and right? Besides the obvious of FOTUS /Elon firing everyone. Or it that just it?
I support the implied contrast with the current transportation sec, but there were in fact 4,913 accidents in those four years. 793 were fatal. 134 involved air carriers but only one fatal, an airport ground crewmember. 28 fatal commuter flights.
Murphy’s Law might apply once, but not after 4 accidents in less than a month. Firing a bunch of FAA & NOAA workers ILLEGALLY just before these incidents raises a lot of suspicion. Can the pp in government be held responsible by law if the accidents are proven to result from a lack of fed workers?
When it comes to trying to sort out this(apparent?)coup
Will the ringLEADERS be held accountable/charged for the deaths&injuries which seem to have directly occurred because of political dismissals&withdrawal of state public servants&state funding(including)for disaster&stopping spread of disease?
The evil minds that could author&apply such policy of pain& intimidation of fellow citizens, especially of those needing support, should be in the dock&go down in history as those who tried to resurrect fascism in the western world.

Texas Paul, I think the problem is that only the mighty, all powerful, all knowing Cheese Puff can fix the problem.
He is a god in his own mind! He can fix everything.
Look how good he is at removing the inspectors Generals, and getting rid of all the fraud and waste in our government agencies.
Dear friends, I need your support! ❄️🛵

Well in the case of the train accident MAGA Republicans tried to blame on Pete, that is definitely true. The accident was caused by deregulation from Trump.
I'm not super smart, but am very opinionated. Odds are in my favor that I was correct when denigrating Trump, because he's...well...Trump, and will do what Trump does.
I believe that the incompetence that is rife in the Trump administration will be their downfall. If MSM would at least point out incompetence when it becomes glaring, our democracy would stand a much better chance.
The price of undoing well established regulations. It took experts years to build up safety standards; be it aviation, water, oil drilling etc. I certainly don't understand why this administration is hell bound to undo everything that has served the US well for years.
I have to do a lot of Health & Safety and Risk Assessments in my job over many years, and every time I see certain guidance or regulation I always think; this is because something really awful happened previously, and shudder slightly.
People were stuck in airports instead. Have you seriously forgotten? Jesus fucking Christ! Just because he had a D next to his name doesn't mean he's a good guy, especially when he went from being a Bernie supporter to a bootlicker for the elitist predatory class at McKinsey. https://youtu.be/gDWj8eWJXds
Well, no shit. I mean, the new guy is literally a former contestant from the real world. And before that he was a male stripper from the Chippendales in Denver, Colorado. I bitched and moaned so much about the southwest baggage disaster, but at least the planes weren’t crashing and killing people.
While I am in no way supportive of the current administration, this is just false. What is true is that the frequency of fatal accidents decreased during his tenure (most are in small planes). It is also true that the frequency of ATC mistakes and close calls was going up. It's just not that simple.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social forget the Michigan Senate sir. Announce you are running for POTUS. Start your campaign soon. Build that ground game. The American people need a voice.
I like him and also Jasmine Crockett. Dunno if she will qualify but I can’t see why not. They are both highly intelligent. 2028 or before if necessary.
Which is why I like her. She calls them out TO THEIR FACE (caps bc she’s yelling at them). And the looks on their faces is like…”I’m gonna lose this argument”. They look afraid of her.
From what I've been seeing from reliable sources on TikTok(My job) She and the rest of our actual government officials ripping Trump's goon squad to shreds.
The bumper car theory in air travel is now the new operational concept 45/47 and Muskrat foisted on us. Like taking a twisted carnival ride, where you have thrills and chills as you gamble your life on whether your flight doesn't crash into another plane or into the ground.

So very true, since "Cheeto man" has been in office and cutting programs left and right . Now planes are dropping out of the sky. #helpusjesus #wakeupamerica 😐☮️❤️✨✝️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Under Pete Buttigieg (2021–2025): 0 fatal crashes. Under Sean Duffy (20 days): 5 crashes, 85 deaths, multiple injuries. At this rate, he’s turning ‘crash course’ into national policy.
What are you talking about? There were plenty of fatal crashes every year. Check the NTSB figures yourself if you don't believe me. Please stop spreading misinformation.
the instances outlined in your purposefully propagandized chart are not even close to the recent incidences that have occurred since Trump gutted the FAA and aviation safety committee. the crashes since use to be extremely rare. Now they are normal.
A truly talented individual. He should be the next Presidential nominee for election. His clarity of voice and his insight and talent suggests he would be a strong candidate in an election
1) I'm Canadian
2) A talented individual can win power regardless. Margaret Thatcher did it in 1978. Barack Obama is another good example. So Pete Buttigeg, who goes on Fox and gets raves from Fox audiences, has that same talent to break that.
I think what is meant here is that white nationalists and terrorist groups are running the USA now.
The same laws that governed Obama to not exsist in this new world the USA is in.
Painting with one stroke serves to do something I am very familiar with as a Jewish person. The ultimate consequences of that lie quiet in the snow about Auschwitz and Bergen Belsen
You might want to brush up on what is happening right now in America.
And remember Hitler was the bad guy.
And right now you are being blind to that.
That is sad.
(2/) Black spruce are very different from jack pine. Tamarack are conifers that shed their needles for fall in line with Birch. Yet the Birch is a deciduous tree. Painting doesn't do a service to all the people who might be your allies.
What America has is a dictatorship in the making.
And they are no longer allies.
You should remember that. Right now America has attacked all of its allies.
(1/) Sorry mate that really doesn't work. I love my country with a passion. Been living in it for almost 60 years. I have the same distain you have for Trump's 51st state nonsense. But its like a forest. Sure a jack pine forest is all trees. But each species is different.
Sadly you are right- the last several years of having trump in my life has shown me that my country is full of hate and people I love and have known forever - let’s just say I guess I didn’t know them
He deals with reality, period. Not like the chaos agent currently in the White House who's off in some reality TV fantasy world, fucking with everything he can get his hands on.
JD Vance thinks that America needs a dictator or as his buddy Curtis yarvin calls it a national CEO. This has been the stated goals from people like Kurtis yarvin since 2012. https://youtu.be/VeVhHNSe9Ks?si=UbXeJ33kOp51XmZS
I like Pete a lot and miss his calm, rational, factual often quirky interviews, BUT don’t spread this misinformation, there WERE plane crashes during Pete’s time at DOT. What there were NOT were crazy blame games pushed in the media before there were facts. Please don’t give Trump ammo to hit Pete!!
He's not a reality star. The doofus who's now Secretary of Transportation doesn't know what he's doing. He's completely unqualified to be local dog catcher, nevermind Secretary of Transportation. Where has he been?
Is he not terrorist? Why is the whole world not calling him a terrorist? He made his supporters storm the Capitol and now he is breaking all kinds of laws
On what Constitutional basis can one remove a whole administration? Historically, the path from democracy into autocracy has martial law imposed to quell violence. They want a reason. Tread lightly.
Democracy's best defense is its slowness.
Congress is designed for that.
Efficiency is its enemy.
I'm not a politician so, I don't have the answer. I'm just trying to get our congressman and senators to receive the message.
There must be an option(we aren't in a normal situation)to combat these unconstitutional and illegal acts of the Trump administration.
In a perfect world, "just" removing bad actors might work. But, in practice, removal is slow, controversial (ironically, seen as anti-democratic), and more prone to failure than just asking Congress to do its job. We know some want to. We just need to help them see it's now or never.
I also think they are moving slowly to give the reckless Idiot 1 and Idiot 2 time to piss off more of Trumps voters. Numbers are also key in a Democracy. My fantasy is Trump’s moronic behavior unites more Americans. We need to end supporting polarizing figures and start voting for level headedness.
And annoying as GOP Congress rubber-stamping POTUS is, we must take fear of mob violence seriously. It comes of too-broad pardon & DOJ power. But Congress does (for now) have superior power. It COULD set limits & commit to fast-track (instant) impeachment of any POTUS inciting, etc.
My plan is to keep on telling our congressman, senators, and governors to put forth the legislation that is required to remove this orange stain. We all must act! We all must get involved.
Elon, right now is trying to steal our Social Security!
And that's exactly why Pete should be the next president. Highly educated, friendly, empathetic and strong in implementation. Exactly the guy we need when he has to rebuild the smoking remains of America.
*Commercial airplanes didn't crash while he was in charge, general aviation crashes did. If you know anything about GA you know that crashes happen almost daily. Statistically flying in planes is safer than driving a car, but accidents happen. Equipment failure, human error, & weather all play part.
It’s almost like intentionally stressing out and insulting an already stressed out and under appreciated workforce might negatively impact performance. 🤷♂️
That's because Mr Pete has had to be 3x more edcuated to get half the recognition as his straight counters. So what they want but Pete has the respect of the people he was serving and those working around him.
Elon Pets are plugging in and playing - Just like the games they okay, they lose - they miss - only these games are real - And planes fall out of the sky and people die
We don't need the proof of FAFO - They have openly admitted it
Musk has said he wants to replace all FAA staff with his boys & AI

Will Rogers speaks to me every damned day now. "The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves."

Now they want SpaceX people to review the Air Traffic Control system. SpaceX has one rocket at a time & some of those explode or crash on landing. ATC has thousands of planes in the air going to multiple airports. SpaceX personnel have NO EXPERTISE in this matter. Is this Musk 101 or Project 2025.
I need help with some research. Musk minions are say no traffic controllers were hired under Pete's watch. I found that they hired 1800 controllers in 2024. I was wondering about the other years of Biden administration. Can someone help me?
Why fuss about his lifestyle……it is not necessary……planes did not crash…..when Pete was in charge……his work speaks for him…..let that be how we define our leaders by their character, quality of work and leadership
Who cares? He didn't say shit about election fraud either. They're all complicit, and this system needs some major reworking. The corruption is endemic.
Yes, they did. We just didn't talk about it. That and they were private planes, not commercial.
But there have been an increasing number of near misses every year for a decade now. I suspect the DC crash would have happened regardless of who won the election.
Yes, let's trust the Nazi asshole to overhaul our FAA system, whose social media platform fails regularly, and the failure rate for his rockets is over 60%.

I think the brutality makes these incompetent people not care one iota who gets hurt within their slop ball.
Good H&S is invisible...
But at least he wasn't a complete screw up and totally incompetent.
What democrats still don't know how to do is win elections consistently.
he will NEVER be POTUS. 👍
Big difference.

Perhaps qualification and facts are still thing to recond with, then.
Window "jumping" and so one will be on he menu now.
for at least the first plane crash?
I mean... didnt he cause that to happen?
it seems to me that he needs to learn that there are consequences for what he and first wife Musk do.

2025 is shaping up to be MUCH worse, but this is an old problem which is getting worse by the minute, not a new problem.
Orange Cruelius destroying the FAA is definitely not helping.

Maybe that plane landed the right way up....it did take off from an upside down country.
Me: so y isnt trump cabinet as lucky? He got that whole “ god saved me so i can save America” thing
Maga: u f*cking slut b*tch I am gonna slit your c*nt ( u know the basic trumpers hate speech instead of focusing on answering a direct question)
Their shit was already falling apart when Biden was still in office
Even if you ousted the felon (by impeachment or the 25th Amendment), Vance would still follow the Project 2025 agenda.
