Elon, who isn’t an actual government employee, pushed out the head of the FAA 9 days ago. Gosh, I hope nothing serious has happened since

Elon Musk, who has not been elected or officially appointed to any office, successfully pushed the FAA Administrator to resign 9 days ago.

  1. I get not liking Musk as he’s become political but to imply this may have happened because a bureaucrat, who was essentially untouchable by Musk, quit is pretty far-fetched and belongs more in r/conspiracy

  2. Yep, I’m sure it was that!

    Certainly couldn’t have anything to do with four years of openly and proudly hiring people based on race & sexual orientation, as opposed to MERIT.

    Sounds like you’ve definitely gotten to the bottom of this one. hahahahaha. And you wonder why you have zero credibility and are viewed as fundamentally unserious people.

    I can at least appreciate you for a laugh lol

  3. Unless the head of the FAA was working air traffic control last night let’s just stop the bullshit. Trump is a tool and Musk is a idiot but holy hell, Evil Knievel couldn’t make that leap.l

  4. Trump will throw Elon under the bus to save his own leaky ass.

  5. None of this was Trumps or Elons issue. The tower was understaffed and had been for quite some time. It’s probably even a stretch to say it was Biden/Harris fault. It is just a lack of workers with the skills and/or a company trying to get their profit margin in a place that the higher ups felt accomplished.

  6. Getting rid of that deadbeat will be helpful in fixing America’s airports and more.

  7. We’re letting a South African billionaire dismantle our government, lol

  8. The American people should have been told that Elon Musk and his megazillions, were on the ballot, not fair!!

  9. And trump ran out there and blamed both Obama & Biden for this accident, dick move Mr. President smelly pants.

  11. I hope people sue him til he’s poor and unable to find work.

  12. Cool story! From the New York Times:

    *“The tower was nearly a third below targeted staff levels, with 19 fully certified controllers as of Sept. ***2023***… The shortage — caused by ***years*** of employee turnover and tight budgets, among other factors — has forced many controllers to work up to six days a week…”*

  13. So gullible, He’s out because he wasn’t part of their remake of the administrative state plan.

  15. Nothing to see here. Accidents happen! I personally can attest that air traffic controller let that happen was getting drunk with me before showing up to work. From the way he slurring and all the pills he was poppin’ I wouldn’t have taken him for an air traffic controller. Tragic really

  16. Biden saved jobs as air traffic controllers for totally and completely unqualified dei hires, while he let qualified experienced air controllers go elsewhere. At the time of the disaster, the tower was understaffed, and the supervisor confirmed it was not unusual. One of the busiest airports in the world was literally waiting for Bidens short bus dei hires to staff the tower. This blood is on Bidens hands.

  17. No it was the blacks, didn’t you xuskit like all the cool x-oids?!
