FUBAR

Every day these incompetent unqualified morons demonstrate that they have no fucking idea how to run a government. I wouldn’t hire these people to sell hotdogs at a baseball game, because they’d somehow find a way to fuck that up too.

“We kind of all laugh and think that Trump's kind of an idiot when he does his joking about making Dana White the press secretary. We could use a white house press secretary. On a day like this, there are a lot of people who want to have someone who can stand up and answer questions”

Even if we had a White House Press Secretary, they would be as incompetent as Duffy and Mullen and Trump.

That’s just science.

Read the room.

It still starts from the top. And this idiot is still the spokesperson for this shit:

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin attempts to assure the American public during an emergency press conference from the White House: “There is no reason to be concerned about your loved ones if they're flying or anything like that, I just wanted to make sure everybody is at ease about that.”

Which means nobody has any fucking idea:

The National Weather Service (NWS) denies reports of a weather radar outage amid the ongoing nationwide ground stop across the United States.

Amtrak has now confirmed reports of outgoing outages on both its website and app, likely the result of higher than usual web traffic caused by the nationwide ground stop in the United States. https://t.co/O42fnFNHJi

According to CBS News, citing several sources, an update to the private communications network - operated by L3Harris Technologies - that connects America’s air traffic control system caused the system to reboot, resulting in a system crash and the current nationwide ground stop across the United States.

Airlines are now being told by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that the nationwide outage and resulting ground stop was prompted by a problem with network routers, starting at Chicago Midway International Airport, a source tells CNN. https://t.co/SY0blnxpok

I’m sure Trump has this flight situation handled because his uncle was a professor at MIT so he can figure this stuff out without listening to experts. Nobody knows more about air traffic control than Trump. He even owned an airline. Until he bankrupted it.

Authorities are investigating whether a software update unintentionally took down FAA communications, causing a nationwide ground stop.

The FAA’s Air Traffic Control System Command Center advisory website, where advisories including ground stops and delay programs are normally posted, has been offline for about the last hour. https://t.co/Vdy0OfEOvO

US airspace continues to clear out this evening after a nationwide groundstop was announced earlier today. Thousands of flights have already been delayed and canceled. https://t.co/QxcvzXuRnk

Not just here:

All international flights departing Europe and Mexico bound for the United States have been canceled until further notice, at the direct request of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). https://t.co/Pd1N8nxKEP

And if it goes too long (which isn’t long at all at this point), Thanksgiving travel will be affected. Because those dominoes are already ready to tip.

In the meantime, the Administration still can’t say shit.

I have a great idea. Let’s put a reality TV show guy/Fox host in charge of transportation in the US despite the fact that he has zero qualifications or experience since the president liked watching him on TV and thought he had a good line of BS. What could go wrong?

Hey Chief @StephenM? You're in charge. Everything went to shit!! I thought you fascists were supposed to make the trains run, period???

(Current conventional wisdom is that, at base, the ATS is held together with string and baling wire, and should have been overhauled years ago. But that doesn’t excuse a software update crashing the nation. Or Boob McGee being the only person shoved out the door to answer questions, while the SOT hides behind a single tweet. 10,000 flights have been delayed, 4400 cancelled. And nobody from the Administration can even get in front of a camera, or report to Congress. Elect a clown 🤡, get a circus 🎪.)
