Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

Breaking it, then profiting off the *fix*

The same way they profit off of education privatization… health care… etc…

They count on you not realizing it. You are their piggy bank.

“The systems that enable genocide rely on compliance. They rely on good people following bad laws. They rely on silence.
Do not be silent. Do not wait. Do not obey in advance.
If you are a person of privilege in the US, you are not a passive observer.”

Wow. Just wow. To read these words from David Maraniss. This is how bad things have gotten.
The Washington Post editorial this morning essentially equating Biden's questionable pardons with Trump's outrageous Jan. 6 pardons was unconscionable. The newspaper I've been part of for 48 years has utterly lost its soul.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Axios reports Trump’s decision to pardon/commute sentences of all Jan 6 rioters convicted of crimes, incl those who attacked police officers, was spur of the moment decision to get issue behind him quickly. “Trump just said: ‘F*ck it: Release ‘em all,’” an advisor recalled.

Tip from @snowjob.bsky.social

If you have a whitehouse.gov link you want to access and it is down, try replacing "www.whitehouse.gov" with "bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov"

The national archives is still doing its job for now.

This. From Michael Steele.

"Police officers are on the front line for a reason. As a community or nation, we do not want to embrace the idea that anyone can cross that line and that there are no consequences for doing so. By offering these pardons, Trump has broken that line."

TYLER PERRY: ".. Does anyone else find it appalling that insurance companies can take billions of dollars out of communities for years and then, all of a sudden, be allowed to cancel millions of policies for the very people they became rich on?"
