The FAA is delaying flights at Newark and Denver airports because they haven’t got enough air traffic control. Burbank has zero ATC from 4.30-10pm.

Lots of controllers who aren’t being paid during the government shutdown are calling in sick.

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

When Donald Trump took office eight months ago, the Department of Justice had 36 experienced attorneys assigned full-time to investigate corrupt politicians and police officers.

Today it has two.

Between killing kids by taking vaccines away and censoring comedians, I almost missed this story outlining what is plainly the largest case of public corruption in US history. UAE gets a boatload of rare AI chips in exchange for the Trump family receiving a cool $2 billion crypto infusion

A UAE investment firm run by a member of the country’s ruling family put $2 billion into the Trump family’s crypto firm.

Then the White House gave the UAE access to hundreds of thousands of powerful computer chips needed to build AI.

Trump’s crypto corruption is off the charts.

The UAE put $2B into a crypto firm largely owned by the Trumps and Witkoffs (as in Steve Witkoff, Special Envoy to the Middle East)—then got export restrictions lifted on AI chips.

And let's not forget Trump's other gift from the Middle East, his private jet from Qatar. trib.al/gv1obvE

RESULT: Adelita Grijalva is heading to Congress.

The Democrat has won the #AZ07 special election very easily, and she will replace her father Raúl Grijalva. AP just called it.

Among other things, Grijalva is expected to be the 218th person to sign the Epstein discharge position.
