Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.
This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

The head of the FAA, Mike Whitaker, resigned on January 20 — one year into his 5 year term — after facing relentless criticism from Musk for not approving SpaceX missions quickly enough.
The Senate confirmed him unanimously in 2023.
No acting FAA head has been appointed.

BREAKING — Joe Biden has pulled off the impossible: positive job growth EVERY SINGLE MONTH of his presidency.
The last negative month was the last full month of Trump’s first term, December 2020.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.
That is a lie.
The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false.
As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.

Wow! Biden completely outsmarted Trump with his executive order to permanently ban drilling in 625 million acres of ocean.
Biden didn’t just sign it, he invoked the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.
Trump can ONLY undo it with an act of Congress or in the courts.
Dark Brandon strikes again!

Jan 6th was a violent attack on our country, not a “day of love.” The truth is well documented, witnessed by dozens of GOP officials, it’s up to us to defend it against the relentless lies. My latest:

Speaker Mike Johnson on Fox & Friends suggests Biden's "wide open border" played a role in the New Orleans attack. Again, the perpetrator was born in Texas and served in the US military.

Trumps, Fox, Marge, etc. all immediately rushed to pin New Orleans on immigrants, and Trump lied about the crime rate — but the suspect was a U.S.-born veteran who grew up in Texas, and the crime rate is down.
In case facts still matter.
