Hillary Clinton Humiliated After Attacking Young Gov’t Employees
The Trump administration's newly appointed Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, has officially announced that the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, is undertaking a project to aid in modernizing the nation’s aviation system. During this announcement, Duffy also took the opportunity to respond to a statement made by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a two-time unsuccessful Democratic presidential candidate.
“Big News – Talked to the DOGE team. They are going to plug in to help upgrade our aviation system,” Duffy shared in a post on X. In response, Clinton criticized the initiative, saying, “They have no relevant experience. Most of them aren’t old enough to rent a car. And you’re going to let them mess with airline safety that’s already deteriorated on your watch?”
Duffy swiftly countered Clinton’s remarks with a sharp rebuttal, stating, “Madam Secretary, with all due respect, ‘experienced’ Washington bureaucrats are the reason our nation’s infrastructure is crumbling. You need to sit this one out.”
Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur behind X and CEO of SpaceX, who is leading DOGE’s efforts to highlight government waste and inefficiency, weighed in on the discussion.
“Safety upgrades to the air traffic control system,” Musk said, emphasizing the importance of the project.
“With the support of President @realDonaldTrump, the @DOGE team will aim to make rapid safety upgrades to the air traffic control system. Just a few days ago, the FAA’s primary aircraft safety notification system failed for several hours!” Musk wrote in response to Duffy’s post.
One user on the platform contributed to the conversation, saying, “My brother first developed the method of accurately navigating airlines by GPS, 45 years ago. He expected an automated air traffic system long ago. It’s time to do it now. Get rid of 75-year-old ATC radar. Put all the planes on a 3-D map. All paths straight to landing.”
Musk agreed with the sentiment.
The exchange on X follows two tragic aviation accidents in the United States within the past week. One involved a Black Hawk helicopter carrying three soldiers, which collided with an American Airlines passenger flight in Washington, D.C. In the second incident, a Learjet 55 medevac aircraft crashed near a Philadelphia shopping center, resulting in seven fatalities.
Recovery efforts are ongoing for all 67 passengers aboard the American Airlines flight, with their remains retrieved from the Potomac River.
“The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner continues its work to ensure the dignified return of remains to their families and continue supporting the families through this process,” officials handling the recovery efforts stated.
Authorities also noted that personnel from various agencies are actively working to identify potential wreckage for salvage crews to recover in the affected area.
Data retrieved from nearby air traffic control tower screens indicate that at the time of the Black Hawk’s collision, the helicopter was flying at an altitude of 300 feet.
