Trump continues FAA firing rampage as liberals blasted for blaming him for plane crashes: Live updates

Supporters of Donald Trump on Monday reacted to a threat from a European leader warning him that they were the ones who controlled the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski spoke about Trump’s attempts to achieve a peace between Russia and Ukraine, at the Munich Security summit.

Sikorski warned Trump not to give too much deference to Russia during the peace negotiations to end the war.

Democrats are expressing dismay at Elon Musk and his young DOGE ‘nerd army’ after they requested access to Americans’ most sensitive IRS data.

The IRS keeps records on Social Security numbers, banking information, tax returns and more – all sensitive records that Americans typically keep private to avoid being the targets of fraud.

Democrats are now sounding the alarm that DOGE may be able to comb through those personal records of everyday Americans.

‘I want to save billions of your money and make our government more efficient,’ Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., posted on X about Musk’s efforts to infiltrate the IRS. ‘Rummaging through your personal s*** is *not* that. A party of chaos loses—always.’

However, for all the chatter about DOGE’s access to the sensitive IRS data, there is no indication that Musk’s team has gotten their hands on the files so many Democrats are worried about.

Musk’s team of twenty-year-old nerds haven’t been able to access sensitive data at the Treasury Department, which oversees the IRS, because their efforts have been held up in court.

Mayor Pete failed for four years to address the air traffic controller shortage and upgrade our outdated, World War II-era air traffic control system. In less than four weeks, we have already begun the process and are engaging the smartest minds in the entire world.

Here’s the truth: the FAA alone has a staggering 45,000 employees. Less than 400 were let go, and they were all probationary, meaning they had been hired less than a year ago. Zero air traffic controllers and critical safety personnel were let go.

Mayor Pete chose to use this amazing department—that is so critical to America’s success—as a slush fund for the green new scam and environmental justice nonsense. Not to mention that over 90% of the workforce under his leadership were working from home – including him. The building was empty!

When we finally get a full accounting of his mismanagement, I look forward to hearing from him. In the meantime, I will not rest until I return the Department of Transportation and its incredible employees to its mission of efficiency and safety.

The Trump administration is firing hundreds of workers at the Federal Aviation Administration, cutting a swath through staff weeks after personnel shortages were cited as a factor in the fatal mid-air collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

David Spero, president of the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists, said the first emails were sent to probationary workers late on Friday night.

He said hundreds had received notice that their employment was terminated.
