WYM ModIsaac Stanley-Becker of The Atlantic reveals a troubling narrative: Following a tragic aviation disaster, Trump blamed Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) hiring practices for the crash, despite lacking evidence. He initiated a costly investigation into DEI's supposed impact on safety. Experienced controllers argue such inquiries are unnecessary, debunking Trump's claims.

WYM ModPaul Krugman exposes critical failures in the FAA amid Newark's recent air traffic chaos. He links this to anti-government rhetoric, highlighting issues like understaffing, outdated tech, and low federal salaries that hinder recruitment in high-cost areas.

Without significant reform, the air traffic control crisis hints at persistent systemic issues.
