See, plebs, we can't be trusted to run things smoothly. We have no choice but to sell all real estate holdings and release any and all authority over flight safety to our trusted partners at X.
The TSA is now a subsidiary of Blackwater, and screening has already been done by Palantir.
If you have any questions, please direct them to the new government information office at PragerU.

Theres been some discussions at my work for travel to a couple of our production plants, and while nothing is concretely planned I'm going to flat out say I am not flying for the next few months because of all this.
Me over here having just booked a flight.
But it's domestic, and I'm okay with delays, so.
I mean, domestic would probably be less safe than international all things considered
How do you figure? Domestic means no passport control, customs, etc.
It’s the overworked and lack of air traffic controllers that’s the most worrying and dangerous.
I was referring to safety like the article. Those things you said generally aren’t where you need to worry about safety. I’d be more worried about sleep deprived, short staffed and overworked air traffic controllers. You know, the shit that causes planes to collide on the runways
Tbf they were always sleep deprived, short staffed, and overworked.
The difference is that now they are all of those things plus they arent getting paid. Overworked, sleep deprived, even shorter staffed, and now starving or at risk of eviction… what a great country this is
Me over here getting my form 4 processed by the ATF be like - fuck airlines because they're such greedy fuckers
