In less than 2 weeks in office your incompetent buffoon of a leader has already gotten 67 people killed,congrats.
Firing the FAA director,banning the hiring of air traffic controllers and gutting the aviation safety committee is whats retarded.
Washington plane crash: Trump gutted key aviation safety committee for DEI rollback before deadly midair collision An American Airlines jet with 60 passengers and four crew members aboard collided Wednesday with an Army helicopter while landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington, D.C., prompting a large search-and-rescue operation in the nearby Potomac River. At least 28 bodies were pulled from the icy waters of the Potomac, officials said. Crews were still searching for other casualties but did not believe there were any survivors, which would make it the deadliest US air crash in nearly 24 years. The body of the plane was found upside down in three sections in waist-deep water. The wreckage of the helicopter was also found. Three soldiers were on board. Was Trump warned of 'dangerous policy' before crash? According to a report in The Mirror, US President Donald Trump has come under fire for implementing a "dangerous" federal hiring freeze, dismissing the heads of the Transportation Security Administration and Coast Guard, and dismantling a crucial aviation safety advisory committee. This all occurred just days before a fatal collision between an American Airlines plane and a military helicopter. Earlier this month, Trump moved quickly to remake the Department of Homeland Security Tuesday and fired the heads of the Transportation Security Administration and Coast Guard before their terms are up and eliminated all the members of a key aviation security advisory group. Members of the Aviation Security Advisory Committee received a memo saying that the department is eliminating the membership of all advisory committees as part of a “commitment to eliminating the misuse of resources and ensuring that DHS activities prioritize our national security.” This tragic incident happened just 10 days after Trump signed an executive order freezing the hiring of Federal civilian employees, a decision that had been warned could lead to plane crashes. The hiring freeze stipulated that no federal civilian position vacant at noon on January 20 would be filled, and no new positions could be created, reported The Mirror. Just hours prior to the Washington D. C. crash, Thomas Schaller, a Political Science Professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to issue a warning about the hiring freeze. He stated: "An FAA employee I know confirms agency already lacks sufficient air traffic controllers. The so-called 'buyouts' and other attacks on federal employees won't help. Remember that fact when the flight delays (crashes? ) commence and Trumpers start falsely blaming DEI or Biden."
