Many public lands ranchers boast enormous wealth obtained from public resources and federal subsidies. Take high-ranking Interior Department official Karen Budd-Falen, whose ranches have benefitted from federal subsidies — even as she battled the federal government. More ➡️ https://loom.ly/3dVc4ok

2/ Genuinely curious what the pretext is. Militaries can seize civilian shipping. But are we instituting a blockade which is an act of war? Are we saying it’s part of a drug running operation?

Remember, Duffy's plan to fix air travel is to shame you into dressing nicer.
That's it.
That's it.
Trump's DOT just forgave $11M in fines against Southwest Airlines for its 2022 holiday meltdown.
This follows the agency scrapping a Biden-era rule requiring airlines to compensate and rebook passengers for lengthy delays or cancellations.
Trump is making flying suck even more.

Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."
