      The buck stops with the president- if the president is Biden or Obama.

    It’s great he blames Obama because he had 4 years to fix whatever problems he alleges but didn’t.

      It was because Obama was born in Kenya that this plane crashed, wasn’t it?

    Obama could have stopped this all from happening from his Georges Soros - secretly funded, evil lair. The one that’s 5 miles underground in Kenya and churns out adrenochrome from all of the ‘pizza’ they make. After all, he has steered hurricanes and burned cities to ashes with space lasers.

      So thats why Trump couldn’t move that hurricane with the sharpie. You have to use lasers. Why didn’t I think of that?

    The incredible thing is that if he hadn’t gone on a binge the past week cutting everything including the FAA, he could maybe sell that there were recent problems in the FAA and he’d try to fix them. Once again he misses the mark in being a leader and goes the exact opposite direction. Not even saying this was directly connected to his actions, but what he’s done so far sure hasn’t helped, nor has his blame shifting.

      He doesn’t need plausible cover because his loyalists don’t care if he’s at fault or not just that he’s “hurting the right people”

    Executive Order here:

    01/30/2025 - Immediate Assessment of Aviation Safety – The White House

    https://web.archive.org/web/20250130223803/https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/immediate-assessment-of-aviation-safety/

    Officially blaming the aircraft incident in D.C., without founding, on DEI:

    “This shocking event follows problematic and likely illegal decisions during the Obama and Biden Administrations that minimized merit and competence in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The Obama Administration implemented a biographical questionnaire at the FAA to shift the hiring focus away from objective aptitude. During my first term, my Administration raised standards to achieve the highest standards of safety and excellence. But the Biden Administration egregiously rejected merit-based hiring, requiring all executive departments and agencies to implement dangerous “diversity equity and inclusion” tactics, and specifically recruiting individuals with “severe intellectual” disabilities in the FAA.”

      Thanks! I added this to my site: https://2025realitycheck.com/.

      Please let me know you’ve got any additional items to add or suggestions. I haven’t been able to read through all the executive actions yet.

      Are you just using a web archive link so that it’ll still work if they remove it from the site?
