Trump fired the FAA director at the direction of the dope-smoking and ketamine gobbling Elon Musk because he was pissed at him for raising safety concerns about SpaceEx.
Trump disbanded the Aviation Safety Advisory committee.
Trump appointed a drunken rapist and Christo-fascist to run the DoD just before an Army helicopter crossed into the path of an airliner on approach.
Trump hired a TV reality show host and Fox talking head with zero relevant experience as Secretary of Transportation who shared the great insight that mid-air collisions are not "standard practice".
But Trump blames Biden and Obama for a catastrophe that occurred on his watch and after spending the hours since the crash making stupid and uninformed statements.
He's President Shit-Show, but our weak corporate media will let him and his crew of criminals and clowns move on to their next catastrophe without asking any of the obvious tough questions that need to be asked and answered.
Corporate media has lost all credibility. I'm reading tonight that the oligarch owning CBS, David Ellison, is putting pressure on CBS to pay Drumpf $15M for his groundless defamation claim against 60 Minutes for editing Kamala's interview as consumer fraud. Ellison fears Drumpf might block a potential merger where Ellison stands to make billions. Everything is transactional now, we don't need competent professionals, it's more important to put loyal white men in every position and flatter King Donald. While the country burns instead of fiddling the Orange Fraud will be golfing.
Trump also fired the head of TSA, which means another safety boondoggle. Why he did that? Flying is not magic. It has rules. Trump is inviting every terrorist to come to the US, just don't try to come through the Southern border. There are easier ways to get in, like through airports. Also, one can come in as an enemy agent and apply for sensitive government jobs because Trump doesn't seem to be requiring FBI background checks for people. Is this like the thief leaving the door unlocked so that his fellow thieves can break in later? Hello Putin, do you have any FSB or SVR agents you want to imbed in our Counter Intelligence infrastructure? It will be a partnership, much like Putin was openly embedded in the DDR's Stasi while also in the Russian KGB.
Let’s just call them all NAZIS, okay? You might not agree with me, Lucian, but that’s what they are. I don’t want to call them white supremacists or Christian nationalists. Their power play is right out of the handbook, “How to be A Good Little Nazi” (aka: Project 2025) which was probably written in the Reagan years and revised in 2023.
Surprised that you didn’t mention that squirrely weasel, Kash Patel! Boy, is he a charmer or what? Was happy to see Klobuchar and Schiff take some real good swings at him.
I believe the new edition of the Project 2025 book, now on press (when your living quarters are inspected by ICE agents "looking for illegal aliens" --- no warrant will be required --- they will note whether you have a copy and will report you if you don't), has a new, much catchier and more relevant title: MEIN 47.
Agreed that they are all Nazis. I keep saying that Trump is following Hitlers playbook and he keeps proving me correct. The deportations are how Hitler started before progressing to the Final Solution. He also got rid of bureaucrats in the German government and replaced them with his cult members. We are rapidly entering the 4th Reich.
One newscast I heard Thursday reported that another CRJ was taking off and the Nighthawk crew may have mistaken it for the one the tower was referring to—even more plausible with your explanation about night-vision goggles.
The real danger is all that extra ambient light from the city. In fact I think that may have been the nature of the training mission: to learn night flying I am urban environment. Otherwise, why not fly over rural areas south of Ft. Belvoir where they were based?
As to “Gabbard would only concede that Snowden “broke the law and released this information in a way that he should not have,” as if there is another way that top-secrets can be shared with people who are not cleared to receive it.” But doesn’t this apply to Trump sharing top-secrets with Musk? And as for Trump’s point in his memo “The memo goes on to claim that the Biden administration “egregiously rejected merit-based hiring, requiring all agencies to implement dangerous ‘diversity equity and inclusion’ tactics, and specifically recruiting individuals with ‘severe intellectual’ disabilities in the FAA.” Individuals with severe intellectual disabilities describes Trump’s intended appointees as well as Trump himself I have to say. Call a spade a spade unless that’s too woke. I am exhausted by the White House Shit Show, too.
He may or may not be mentally lll, but he is mentally deficient, insufficient for the level of our time, an in between time, as described by Don DeLillo, where the reality of uncertainty reigns, the old anchors gone. Absent even a rudimentary scale of values, he operates on biases incubated over a lifetime of attempting to mask the pain caused by his fear that he is insufficient—a rare certainty, blatantly obvious to those with eyes to see and ears to hear.
So much I'd like to say, but I'm exhausted. I'll just say: I don't know why I continue to be outraged when he spews lies and blame everywhere but where it belongs, yet I do. (His latest EO blames former presidents Biden and Obama, saying that "“problematic and likely illegal decisions” during their administrations “minimized merit and competence in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)"...They implemented “dangerous ‘diversity equity and inclusion’ tactics,” it said, and recruited “individuals with ‘severe intellectual’ disabilities in the FAA.”")
Just throw anything at the wall, including baseless accusations of criminality, and assume it will stick. The gall of this man accusing anyone of making hiring decisions based on "minimized merit and competence", let alone having the cojones to talk about other people having "severe intellectual disabilities"....Thanks for continuing to fight the good fight, Lucien, hope you are feeling all the way better. Good night.
Too bad candidates for president don’t have to face even half the scrutiny Air Traffic Controllers do, Trump would still be selling steaks and phony diplomas if they did.
T***p's fixation with DEI is understandable, since it emanates from a Dramatically Egomaniacal Ignoramus, who compensates for his Depressingly Empty Intelligence with Deeply Extremist Incoherences (and let's not dwell on his Degenerate Erotic Indulgences). QED.
What a day! Three hearings at the same time and they focus on the airline crash! I started to think they didn’t want the public to see the confirmation hearings. I watched a little online but I couldn’t hear that well. I caught up later tonight. Lucien, you gave an excellent summary! Thanks so much! What a day!
I feel so sad about the young lives lost from the ice skaters!
That the actual president of the United States can make statements like this and it not be plastered in huge fonts all over every news outlet is unfreakin' believable. Imagine if Obama had said anything even vaguely like what this turd says every time he opens his mouth. Hell, every time Obama said "Hi" we got weeks of Repubs screaming from the rooftops about it. Deeper and deeper we plunge...
In the past 10 days...

Exactly. There is also the immigration situation which is the USs Nazi moment. Here lawyer Leeza Miller lays it out for us.

A true president would join the people in national mourning. Oh, Hell. Why do I bother to point that out? We are in the middle of a coup.

Facts don't lie. Thank you, Deepak!
I got the same info and posted it on Bluesky for all to see and pass on.
EVERY Republican politician that bends the knee to the orange traitor is a sack of shite. Period. That means all of them.

Daien, regardless of the final investigations, Trump will blame it on Obama, Biden and wokenness.
The kid that tried to kill Trump?Was a registered Republican?

We know who the person with. “severe intellectual disability” is.
Psycopath Donald"s White House is occupied by a a litter of submissive puppies. They include religious kooks, sadistic sociopaths and ignoramus fools.
As a supporter of Whistleblowers,
(I agree with Abraham Lincolns 1863 False Claims Act and the long list of Whistleblowers since 1777.)
I have somewhat different thoughts about Eric Snowden.
Hopefully for the next 4 years many Whistleblowers will seek to expose the real criminals. Right, Tricky Dick?
The deterioration of hiring practices best describes his Cabinet. Absolutely lacking merit or qualifications.
Too bad candidates for president don’t have to face even half the scrutiny Air Traffic Controllers do, Trump would still be selling steaks and phony diplomas if they did.
