Summary
FAA Administrator Michael Whitaker resigned on Jan. 20, leaving the agency leaderless amid a major aviation crisis.
His departure followed months of clashes with Elon Musk, who criticized the FAA for imposing $600,000 in fines on SpaceX and called for Whitaker’s resignation.
Musk accused the FAA of obstructing space exploration.
Whitaker’s exit comes as the FAA faces air traffic controller shortages and a major runway collision investigation.
I wonder how many TSA agents voted for Trump?
The TSA is the second largest employer of high school dropouts in the country, after Walmart. Education level is highly correlated with voting patterns.
Probably all of them.
Edit: Well, all of them that can legally vote. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them had criminal records that prevented them from voting.
