Kash Patel raised money for January 6 insurrectionists who attacked law enforcement.
I asked him to look those officers in the eye and tell them he was proud of what he did.
He couldn't.
To recap, Trump:
-Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence
-Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers
-Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee
-Blamed the DCA crash on DEI
This is disastrous leadership.
Bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac.
The President and extreme MAGA Republicans are blaming women and people of color for the deadly plane crash.
At the same time, they are dismantling the Federal Aviation Administration as we know it.
Disgusting.
Victims are still in the water.
The Blackhawk crew is still strapped into the cockpit.
Families are mourning.
And Trump is blaming DEI, suggesting our pilots and air traffic controllers don't deserve their jobs.
We need compassion and leadership—
Our President showed none.
Trump's press conference today, blaming the FAA's hiring of women and black people for the crash - was disgusting. Especially after he just threw the FAA into chaos, ousting the Administrator and the whole FAA safety board.
He's in charge. This happened on his watch.
Question: I’m trying to figure out how you came to the conclusion that DEI had something to do with this crash?
Trump: Because I have common sense and unfortunately a lot of people don’t.
F*ck this guy
I am a private pilot.
You cannot stop a helicopter "very quickly" and listening to this talk about what pilots can or cannot do is disconcerting to say the least.
He knows nothing about altitude discipline, landing approaches or air traffic.
Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.
