@Houseofyogi@BillAckman@Houseofyogi you are spot on! Unfortunately you just can’t teach St0000pid! @SenWarren is one of a multitude of economically ignorant, platitude spewing, professional politicians that have never run a business, had to meet payroll that has infested our political system.
Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren
She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements.
Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service.
JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes.
The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%.
For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%.
Warren said no.
She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024.
Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year.
Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug.
510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December.
14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight.
And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms.
Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back.
40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market.
And the math ain’t mathing.
Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%.
That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.”
So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money?
Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years.
Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do.
Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.”
A win.
14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight.
And she’s taking credit.
This is socialism in 2026.
A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company.
She saved you a billion on imaginary paper.
She cost you ten times that in real life.
She didn’t protect consumers from anything.
14,000+ will go from working to welfare.
She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed.
Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything.
She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.
If people question whether there is bias in media, you should watch this clip. When the answers given by the subject of the interview do not match the narrative which the network would like to advance, the anchor terminates the interview using as an excuse that the subject’s time is valuable and the connection is choppy. Watch to the end and see for yourself whether these reasons are a pretext or whether this is good journalism and fairness in media.
Having a wonderfully amusing time watching @PressSec get grilled by all the reporters of all stripes and persuasions about the #BidenClassifiedDocuments “why were@these classified being stored in his garage?” Doesn’t get any better than this! Transparency much?! 😂😂
@GeraldoRivera Gee @GeraldoRivera will the FedGov also feel that voter wrath and outrage as they toy with the with refugees that they are flying all over the country especially the northeast in the dead of night? Asking for a friend…
@elonmusk@RonWyden Why does he hate us / the American dream so much?!?!?!?!
Reality is: most legislators have never built anything… so I guess it’s easier to mindlessly and haphazardly try and tear stuff down.
@MeghanMcCain@MeghanMcCain well you and your Mom help put this man @POTUS that you don’t recognize into office! How disingenuous of you to not have seen him for what he really is back then..a feckless disgrace! #BidenIsACoward
@ABC Since it’s closer to 100 it’s ok?! A bunch of feckless FOOLS this idiot & MSM that bolsters him & this admin! 1 American left behind is 1 too many! He thinks he can sell the Am. Peeps on terrorist being diplomatic?! If it weren’t so pathetic it would be laughable! #JoeMustGo
@SecBlinken You are a feckless fool! I was nauseated listening to your spin on how fabulous this debacle of a withdrawal was! The very best of us is the military personnel that were tasked with executing a flawed mission. That you left 1 American behind means you FAILED! #wewillneverforget
