Summary
FAA Administrator Michael Whitaker resigned on Jan. 20, leaving the agency leaderless amid a major aviation crisis.
His departure followed months of clashes with Elon Musk, who criticized the FAA for imposing $600,000 in fines on SpaceX and called for Whitaker’s resignation.
Musk accused the FAA of obstructing space exploration.
Whitaker’s exit comes as the FAA faces air traffic controller shortages and a major runway collision investigation.
Because the elected racist, apartheid loving fuck gave him the power. Money buys politicians, politicians make the rich even more so.
It’s a big party and we’re not invited
