US airlines had gone 16 years without fatal crashes.
Then MAGA fired the FAA chief, gutted the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, and threatened air traffic controllers with layoffs.
Now there have been two fatal crashes.
Hope your unvetted 22-year-olds fix things fast.
Take thirteen minutes, or bookmark this for later. This is from @ezraklein, taken from The Ezra Klein Show podcast. It explains precisely what this administration is doing and why it is essential to keep focus and not play into it.

Step 1: Announce tariffs on our allies unless they do what you want
Step 2: Get rid of the tariffs before they go into effect after our allies promise to do things they’re already doing
Step 3: Have Fox News pretend you won major concessions when you didn’t (& gave things up)
We estimate Trump's 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico and 10% tariffs on China will:
🔹 Increase taxes by $1.2T (2025-2034)
🔹 Reduce GDP by 0.4%
🔹 Reduce employment by 344k jobs
🔹 Result in an average tax increase of $830 per US household (2025)

In case you’re having a bad day at work, remember that at least you’re not Trump’s @PressSec who tweets were so bad today she earned the entire administration a federal restraining order.
Keep talking and tweeting, girl! You’re doing great! 👍🏽
