  • Leasing unused facilites to Rhinemetal (an actual tank manufacturer) barely qualifies as getting into the arms industry. Opportunistic? Greedy? Amoral? Yes, yes, and yes.

    VW is still the conglomerate that designed a cheat into its TDI diesel motors in order to boost sales. Dishonest? Abso-fucking-lutly. But an arms manufacturer? Does Mike Waltz understands opsec?

    Best call VW “arms adjacent wannabees”.








  • You can be as “sorry” as you please; hollowing out vital services (remember, there was only 1ATC on duty when there should’ve been 2) CULMINATES with a catastrophic systemic failure. Did the gutting of the air safety group cause this - yes. Was it was the straw that broke the camel’s back - yes. Try to think less transactionally (like Herr Drumpf) and look at the problem as a whole, not a single incident.

    PS, making a mid-air collision the fault of DEI policies is a narrow-minded and facile way to turn a tragedy into a political spectacle that can be monetized. Watch for over priced cheesy Trumpian baubles to "commemorate " this event. Coming soon to TSC.
