Amid shortages of air traffic controllers & fatal aircraft events, the Trump administration has purged several hundred FAA employees. Casual detail: the firing email came from a Microsoft email address, not a .gov one. (But her emails, etc.)

From Katherine Locke on Bluesky:

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.

Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.

Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.
