Transportation chief Sean Duffy threatened to ground all U.S. flights amid the ongoing shutdown, warning "we'll shut the whole airspace down."
As the stalemate drags into the second month, it's adding more potential risk to the aviation system and putting a further strain on air traffic control staffing shortages, Duffy said in an interview Monday with CNBC.
“If we thought that it was unsafe, we’ll shut the whole airspace down,” Duffy said.

Hey Duffy you still don't have clue........right along with Thune and Johnson and that orange hair 34 count convicted fraudster..........if 80% of the controller are calling out sick in the New York TRACON (N90) area you have a fucking problem there are 30 other areas in this country that have TRACONS and as for the CEO's of the major airlines you have a problem by supporting this regime................again ...............all pilot's, mechanic's, flight attendants and ground handlers should walk off the job for a week and then lets see what the maga pukes in Congress and the senate do.............and the CEO's and wall street lets add them to the public safety issue..........

At this point, more like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic 
Where’s an iceberg when you need it?
Also fuck Sean Duffy's real employer, Fox News, for this.
