A sudden 10 day closure of airspace in a major US city like El Paso should be THE STORY, with nothing else getting any air time until at minimum someone within the US government says what’s happening and why.

It barely even registers on CNN’s site. It’s literally the last item before the page ends.
The FAA is closing the airspace around El Paso International Airport in Texas for 10 days, grounding all flights to and from the airport, for “special security reasons."

The FAA's notice did not provide additional details.

The aging pedophile who wants to be a king has kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation without congressional approval.

If the United States had an opposition party, they would treat this as an illegitimate act and start impeachment proceedings immediately.

These are surreal times for everyone but if you grew up in NYC before The Apprentice aired you knew Trump as the sleaziest real estate developer in the city and just a ridiculous tabloid buffoon. The guy was a walking, talking joke and it seems completely bonkers that he'd become POTUS.

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.

Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.

Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

If Trump ever sees the inside of a jail cell, I hope it has a tiny window that overlooks windmills.

lol at people blaming the pilots for the current air travel safety issues.

The average person has no idea how much of the world that they just take easy advantage of is made up of incredibly complicated systems that our government is just lighting on fire.

Pilots aren't gods. They rely on ATC.

I'm sorry, as much as I am enjoying this spat, how can you take seriously someone who spent 100s of millions of dollars electing Trump, then went to work for Trump, left government just days ago praising Trump, and is now calling for Trump's impeachment.

Just unserious people.

“Well, we’re doing a shitty job running it, so it must not be that great”has basically been the Republican m.o. for the last forty years.
Today Cindy Hyde-Smith asked about disaster declarations MS is waiting for and requested assurance that FEMA will continue supporting MS as it has in the past. Kristi Noem answered that Trump's failure to respond shows why FEMA should be phased out.

This MS-13 tattoo thing is Trump in a microcosm, and worth some serious journalistic scrutiny. He is so terribly, insistently wrong. Is he that stupid? DId his staff deceive him? Was no one willing to tell him the truth? All of the above?

See if I were a Democrat I'd be printing out talking points now accusing Trump and Bezos of colluding to hide the costs of his tariffs. Call them Trump's "hidden fees" "sticker shock" a "Bezos bailout"
Trump praises Bezos after Amazon denies plan to show tariffs’ costs
Amazon said staff had considered listing tariff costs on its Temu competitor, Amazon Haul, but that it’s “not going to happen.” The Trump administration had condemned the idea.

the president of the united states thinks that trade deficits and budget deficits are the literally same thing and therefore tariffs generate free money by making other countries pay you. how is that not mocked and derided *constantly* by everyone, all the time?
