  • Dems Reportedly Angry That Progressives Are Pushing Them to Act Like an Opposition Party.

  • You don't seem to understand anything. It's a yes or no question.

    Is the current administration's Israel policy preferable to you?

    You're not answering because only a psychopath would say yes. But saying no, if you voted 3rd party, is admitting you fucked up. That's why you avoid it. You can't admit you're wrong.

  • I'd prefer you answer my question. Are you happy with the current administration's policy?

  • True. It's going to be bad. But it's hard to pin the blame on trumpmfor the past incidents. The firings just happened

  • Yes. There are thousands of aviation incidents and accidents every year in the US. None of those have been scheduled carriers. General aviation, crop dustets, flight training, etc... The DC crash was notable because it's the first fatalities due to mishap on a US SCHEDULED air carrier (called part 121 in the industry) since 2009. Emphasis on scheduled. Because of the notability Since then there has been increased scrutiny on aviation which is why you've heard about 2 of the other 3 at all. So 4 since trump took office isn't remarkable. In fact, I'd wager there's been a lot more.

    Now does firing 100s of controllers make the ATC system more safe? No. That's gonna be a disaster.

  • The Helo pilot said the words "traffic in sight..." In the world of aviation that is you saying "I am taking responsibility for traffic separation". The controller isn't in the cockpit, the controller has no choice but to take the pilot at their word. The pilot then followed that up with "...request visual separation." Which is an even more assertive way of saying "I know what I'm doing, I am responsible for separation". He said it twice. The ATC system is built on multual trust in eachother and professionalism.

    The question "did the controller give clear guidance" is moot. The pilot took responsibility for traffic separation. At that point ATC is not responsible for traffic separation. If I want ATC to take responsibility for my safety I say "(Plane call sign) is looking for traffic" then ATC tells me desend, turn, speed up, slow down, etc...

  • As an aviator with a degree in aviation I can honestly say this. It's a miracle it's taken this long for something this bad to happen. No administration, from Regan onwards, has done anything about the ATC shortage (nothing effective anyway). I'm friends with controllers, I've been to several ATC facilities, what they do everyday is a fucking miracle. While it's easy to point at the DC crash and the other subsequent crashes and say "see, Trump did it" the truth is far more nuanced and systemic than that. Also, in my opinion, the DC crash is 100% on the helicopter pilots.

    Is what Trump doing now going to help the situation? Fuck no. We need more controllers. Better pay, better benefits, and more slots at the ATC academy.

  • No, we're not pretending that at all. Is the current administrations policy better?

  • Trump taunted over ‘most powerless image of a president’ ever

    Jump

  • Let me preface this by saying I don't like trump, at all. But his powerlessness was nothing in comparison to whoever that democratic congresswoman outside the treasury building when DOGE was in there doing god knows what. Dems take the cake on appearing powerless, and that needs to change.

  • Growing up we had 4 egg laying hens. We were swimming in eggs. Literally had to plan meals and baking and whatnot around how many eggs we had. We fed them to our dogs. Granted, it was just my mom and I, but damn we had eggs.
