Watchdog Warns DOGE Cuts to FAA Make Next Airline Disaster 'More Likely'
Watchdog Warns DOGE Cuts to FAA Make Next Airline Disaster 'More Likely' | Common Dreams
"Maybe in the DOGE boys' video game simulations, it doesn't matter if they lay off hundreds of staff from the FAA. In the real world, however, it will make flying less safe," said Public Citizen's Robert Weissman.
"Next airline disaster"? Why did the last few not count?
They mean the next one after the latest one and possibly the one after that. The other ones will be caused by planned greater fuckups in the future.

Friends don’t let friends fly when air traffic control towers aren’t properly staffed and supported. It is just too dangerous now.
Real question, how do you get the data to make this judgement? How much more dangerous is it, and what's the threshold when the danger chance is negligible enough?
Driving is far more dangerous, same with any other mode of transport.
Reminds me of this.
Officials in California dedicated the Folsom Dam Memorial, which will honor the nearby residents that will die when the faulty dam fails.
Warning DOGE does nothing. Breaking things and causing death is part of the plan. Oust the Nazis.
DOGE will fire the watchdog.
and make flight delays more and reduce any gains airports that expanded had gotten. It should not be but it taking longer is going to anger folks more I bet.
Hey maybe the next airplane disaster can happen to air force one.
I don't know about you guys, but I can't wait to fly. /s
I’m anti-DOGE and anti-Trump, but I’m not a fan of weaponizing disinformation.
It’s not that there’s more plane crashes now. The news is just covering them more.
It's like the "sudden" increase in railway derailments we saw not long ago.
Some of y'all let the media lead you around by the fucking nose.
(Not you OP, if that wasn't clear.)
Also same as the news & politicians across the country spreading lies about increased crime to justify increased police budgets. In reality, crime is way down.
