Summary
Trump is firing hundreds of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) employees despite recent fatal air crashes, CNN reports.
The AFL-CIO says terminations were issued Friday, with affected staff possibly locked out of FAA facilities after Monday.
Aviation safety union PASS calls the cuts “dangerous,” especially after four deadly incidents in the past month.
Critics argue these moves risk public safety amid ongoing air traffic controller shortages.
- Number of workers does not guarantee the quality of their work
- If there were more accidents, it actually is logical to fire some of the personell
you understand ATC has been under staffed for years yes?
Yes, no one will easily solve this
No room in his senile agenda for any variables
🤡
LOL US planes are even crashing in Canada now. I think the invasion attack just started. Defend yourself!
Insane corruption, with Musks well documented hate for the FAA. He bought an election and I’d wager a large part of it was for this reason alone.
Four deadly crashes and it hasn’t even been a fucking month yet.
Basically, it would be safer to fly over Ukraine and fucking Russia. An over worked and stressed ATC is higher risk than a bunch of drunk Russian bastards manning a SAM battery.
Damn, it’s all falling apart. They are creating a problem that they can then solve by privatizing it. f_ckers.
Confirmed - American aviation is now unsafe. American trains are now unregulated and their safety compromised. I guess it is time to find pleasure in the little things in my home city again.
Back to the all time American classic, the automobile. It’s both what made America great and awful all in one useful machine.
With Teslas autonomously crashing into everything?
Can’t even make the trains run on time.
and now a plane lands inverted - has me thinking about trains!
And yet another plane incident today…
Time to stop putting our faith in flying.
I already decided I’m never going on another dangerous amusement park ride because I don’t trust the businesses to maintain them properly.
Gonna be living like native americans before long!
Do you have levels for your amusement park trust? Like would you go to Disney world but not a traveling carnival? Are they all out? Lol
They are all out.
It’s not worth putting my life in their hands.
Fry bread is the perfect “I am desperately inhumanly broke” food. You can get a lot of calories out of a bottle of oil/tub of lard and a bag of flour.
Beadwork lets you make something gorgeous out of stuff you can get at the dollar tree.
I’m down for a powwow! Or *looks around*… twenty.
Well good to know ahead of time to not fly for the next eight years.
Damn. Didnt think Trump would be the president to curb airline emissions but he just might.
The Gang Fixes the Climate Crisis
It will take more than 8 years to repair the damage done so far.
Next, Trump and Musk will be piloting the planes by themselves 🤪
That would require humility and talent. Neither of which they possess.
On a PS2 remote in a cool chair. By law.
and they will crash it and then react like they’ve just lost a game to a 12 year old kid who called them a shithead.
