    NTSB chair Jennifer Homedy said the FAA supervisor “elbowed an employee midsentence during the AA 5342 hearing today, and the employee stopped speaking”

    Literally, physically ELBOWED them in an NTSB proceeding with the chairwoman present… Are we living in a fucking cartoon?

    The browbeating Homedy gave the FAA says it all. Trump’s FAA lobotomy and FAA inaction directly contributed to those 67 deaths. Then, after the crash they went ahead with the cuts anyways.

    Remember what happened the last time the FAA sewed its lips to the corporate asshole?

    Aviation, food safety, where does the protection of the common pleb end? It’s getting close.

    I can’t figure how airlines and aviation sector don’t see that this undermines trust in their services and products. Means less people flying, less people working. It’s like watching someone turn out all the lights and you know they will be the first to say hey why can’t everyone see?
