Up and Down

A Black Hawk helicopter crashed into an American Airlines commercial jet in mid-air last night over Washington DC. Sixty-four died. The helicopter was carrying 3 Army soldiers and the plane was carrying young ice skaters (World figure skating champions Evgenia Shishkova and Vadim Naumov were among them). Trump blamed it on DEI.

DEI is like critical race theory. Nobody really knows what either one is but they think they do because Republicans make them feel like they do.

This is the first air traffic disaster since 2009.

Trump fired heads of TSA and the Aviation Security Advisory Committee before this. The cause of the crash has not been determined but staff was light at air traffic control last night. One air traffic controller was working two jobs at once when he was supposed to be in charge of just helicopter landings.

The FAA administrator resigned on January 20 because Elon Musk told him to.

Sean Duffy is Trump’s transportation secretary. He is a former Real World reality TV star and talking head on Fox. He ran for Congress in 2010 during the Tea Party movement.

Trump did a press conference which was reminiscent of COVID and Trump’s home made bleach remedies. “You could have gone up. You could have gone down. You could have gone straight up, straight down. You could have turned……….The FAA, which is overseen by Secretary Pete Buttigeig’ — a real winner. Do you know how badly everything has run since he’s run the Department of Transportation. He’s a disaster … he’s got a good line of bullshit.”

One reporter called him out and said, “We don’t even know the names of the people that were killed and you’re making DEI claims and seemingly blaming the military. Aren’t you getting ahead of the investigation?” Trump snapped back, “That’s not a very smart question.”

Trump’s press secretary claims that Biden sent $50 million to Gaza for condoms for Hamas. She also said the Constitution was unconstitutional.

Three Americans, a mom, a grandmother and a baby were taken into custody by ICE in Milwaukee because they were overheard speaking Spanish.

A MAGA in Florida was caught by surprise when ICE showed up to take his wife. He thought Trump would only go after the people he hated.

MAGA priest Calvin Robinson gave the Nazi salute at the annual pro-life summit yesterday and got fired. The Catholic Church defrocked him.

A federal government employee, inspector general Phyllis Fong, had to be escorted out of the office by the cops in the Department of Agriculture because she showed up to work after Trump fired her.

House Republicans introduced a bill to ban abortion nationwide.

Trump wants to open a detention center on Guantanamo Bay for 30,000 people waiting for deportation.

It’s only been 9 days.
