Another Democrat lie

We actually had "more" airplane accidents in the first month of the Biden administration than we have in the first month of the Trump administration.

However, publicly available NTSB data shows the agency investigated 55 plane accidents in the U.S., with 24 resulting in injuries or death, during former President Joe Biden’s first month in office.  In Trump’s first month in office, 35 U.S. incidents were recorded in the NTSB investigation database, with 12 resulting in injuries or death.

So it actually might be closer to double the amount of plane accidents and injuries under the first month of the Biden administration than just "more" accidents and injuries. Of course the headline was the accident between the military chopper and the commercial airplane which killed several people. That of course took place not just early in the Trump presidency, but only two days into the term of Transportation Secretary Duffy. It turns out that the air traffic controller in question was manning two stations (doing two jobs) as the supervisor had let someone else off for that particular shift.

Air traffic control shortages have been real and it turns out that qualified people had been turned away from the job for not meeting the DEI standards that the previous Administration had pushed. In other words, it was more important to have the proper percentages of diversity than to be fully staffed. That has ended and no doubt we will have a full staff of air traffic controllers in the near future.
