Trump admin emails air traffic controllers: quit your jobs
Federal employees were told they could use their paid time off to explore “dream destinations” before quitting.
Summary
The Trump administration emailed air traffic controllers urging them to quit and accept buyouts 24 hours after a fatal Reagan plane crash.
At 8:30 p.m. Thursday, the email urged federal employees to pursue private-sector jobs, offering pay incentives and vacation benefits while on government payroll.
This program contradicts established rules by allowing second employment, sparking union concerns about losing experienced personnel amid an air traffic controller shortage.
Trump blamed previous administrations for safety issues and misrepresented FAA standards, intensifying culture wars as officials remain uncertain about the buyout program's future.

How does it go again? "In the midst of every crisis, lies great opportunity"
The fact that they are using these tragic events as a means to dismantle the government even more quickly is horrifying to watch from the other end of the pond.
What's the old saying...
Never waste a crisis
Or something like that?
Manufacture a crisis so you can gut the government and install a dictatorship
Never let a good crisis go to waste.
Chaos is a ladder
