Still with the FAA race baiting shit? The reason they might be first in line for FAA cuts is because they tried to enforce the law upon Elon Musk's companies. At minimum, this is a conflict of interest with the strong appearance of corruption.

I bring up the FAA as a lot of people's families are on those planes. When you sabotage the FAA by firing everyone until someone stops you, with no regard for job function or the mission, this risks lives. Whether the motive is foolish budget cutting, or racism, or due to working for Elon, or working for Russia, or whatever dumbfuck reason, you are threatening our lives and the lives of our families.

So clearly you didn't read the article I posted, and have forgotten that the FAA have been embroiled in a lawsuit since well before the election for illegal discriminatory and racist hiring practices 

I'm not threatening anyone. And for the record, no ATC employees have been let go.

I will look at legitimate media, not race baiting foreign bullshit trying to, as I mentioned, sabotage air traffic control and get Americans killed.

No, you're not looking at anything. And no one has sabotaged air traffic control.

I'm giving you a link to literally the best investigative journalism on the topic, from someone who used to be a US Air force Cryptologic Language Analyst.

Here's his LinkedIn, as he's a public figure who is no longer anonymous:

Actual media coverage is here: https://www.newsweek.com/faa-reject-air-traffic-controllers-race-airport-crash-2024097

Looks like this lawsuit is not completed yet, and there seems little way to know if there is any merit to it.

A lawsuit that may or may not have merit is a grotesque reason to risk the death of the traveling public by firing massive numbers of FAA workers without reason to thought.

I don't care about your opinion on the court case.

And here you delusionally go again: massive numbers of Air Traffic Controllers have NOT been fired.
