Maga/Trump's big ugly bill set to kick 14 million Americans off their health care coverage
If they're kicking out able bodied adults who refuse to work, I'm all for it. If they're kicking out illegals who never paid a dime into the system, I'm all for it. -

Air traffic control in the United States
Here's a timeline of the key events: March 2024: The Port Authority approved a $134 million project to repave a main runway, which was closed in April. June 2024: The FAA relocated air traffic control of the airspace around Newark from New York to Philadelphia. April 28, 2025: A telecommunications failure caused a 90-second outage of radar and communication systems for air traffic controllers in Philadelphia, who handle Newark's flights. May 9, 2025: A second telecommunications outage occurred, further disrupting communications and radar. May 11, 2025: A third outage, again due to telecommunications problems, led to a ground stop of flights. May 14, 2025: The FAA began restricting the number of flights arriving and departing Newark to manage the situation. Ongoing: The FAA is addressing the staffing shortages and working on modernizing air traffic control equipment. In addition to the above events, here are some other factors contributing to the problems: Runway Construction: A runway closure for repaving, which began on April 15 and continues through June 15, is causing significant disruptions. The construction is expected to resume on weekends from September through the end of the year. Air Traffic Control Shortage: The FAA is facing a shortage of air traffic controllers, both at the Philadelphia facility serving Newark and across the nation. Outdated Equipment: The nation's air traffic control system relies on decades-old technology, and the FAA has resorted to using older parts or making new ones with 3D printers. Stress on Controllers: The April and May outages, combined with the ongoing workload, have led to stress and trauma among air traffic controllers, with some taking leave. Airline Cancellations: In response to the ongoing disruptions, airlines like United Airlines have reduced their schedules. -

That's basically it. They come here thinking there is a bit of room for chest puffing and smack talk and realise in about 1.5 seconds that Thais don't talk crap like that. -
