FAA could just ground all private flights. That would free up some capacity at very little cost, and those few who are inconvenienced would probably be in a position to lobby for the end of the shutdown.

All FAA expenses, like air traffic controller pay are paid from taxes on each airline ticket sold and deposited into the FAA Trust Fund, holding over $18 billion. The only thing standing in the way of paying the controllers in Mike Johnson and the Republicans who have shut down the government.

There is a 7-hour time difference between DC and Moscow. He was invited at 11:44 AM on Thursday DC time. That was 6:44 PM in Moscow. He saw Putin at 8:00 PM according to Sky News and Russians. He left Moscow at 2:00 AM. He may have actually been sitting in the Kremlin even when he joined. (2/2)

BENNET: Don't insult the intelligence of the American people. Did Goldberg invite himself to the Signal thread? RATCLIFFE: I don't know how he was invited. I've seen conflicting reports. B: You're the CIA director! Why didn't you call out that he was present... this is just a normal day at the CIA

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.

COULD? It’s happening in Illinois now. 20 farmers have lost their funding to grow and supply food to needy families in Jo Daviess Cty, where I live. That’s nutrient rich fresh food that can help people. I guess it’s back to boxed Mac n Cheese for them.

This is the miserable “journalist” who asked President Zelensky why he wasn’t wearing a suit. This guy looks like life hasn’t treated him too well, and he’s very close to a major cardiac event. Maybe it’s lifestyle choice, IDK, but he’s clearly a pathetic POS.

Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes What we don't know keeps the contracts alive and movin' They don't gotta burn the books they just remove 'em While arms warehouses fill as quick as the cells Rally 'round the family, pockets full of shells
