Gateway Pundit ^ | February 17, 2025 | Cristina Laila

The Trump Administration fired approximately 300 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) employees over the weekend as DOGE works to eliminate DEI and wasteful spending.

Last week it was reported that the Trump Admin was gearing up to fire probationary workers.

Hundreds of FAA employees received an email informing them of their termination.

David Spero, the national president of the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists (PASS), AFL-CIO, blasted the Trump Administration for firing FAA employees.

Strike while the iron is hot. You gotta know that when people die it’s serious. Too many don’t. For most people the victims are in another state and it doesn’t affect them.

911-the baggage checkers did their jobs and now look at what we have to put up with just to get on a plane. I’d contract it out to 6 month brasarro employees. Send them home for the other 6 months.

Reagan fired the ATCs for striking.

This is getting FAA employees outside of ATCs for DEI crap.

in normal years, this would be a huge scandal that the media would attack him nonstop for months.

But they can’t keep up with everything he’s been doing.

Blind trans midgets have no business guiding planes in and out of airports.

I think it's good policy to fire anyone who was hired under the Biden Administration, especially if they have been hired in the last 6 months.

And it is especially unconscionable in the aftermath of three deadly aircraft accidents in the past month.”

Funny that it wasn’t unconscionable to put aside three thousand high scoring white guys to replace them with DEI. And all the while an understaffing problem.

And no planes crashed. Unlike the predictions of the usual fake news freaks.

This is turning into my fantasy administration. Every day is like Christmas. But he has to be careful. The next plane crash is going to be played up by the media as resulting from these firings.
