Bunkerboy DESPISES the 99%! It would DIE sitting on a plane that's not a private one. Poor Alzheimer's patient.

Even AF1 is dependent on air traffic controllers, so . . .

They fly in the same airspace as we do so it is not any safer for them.

trump is a MORON 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Trump made it a point to Deregulate every safety measure put in place on virtually every mode of transportation in America! Trump has eliminated positions of those involved with enforcing what’s left of the safety regulations! We have had Multiple Airport accidents, including midair collisions, Multiple Train Derailments and fires, and the next will be involving Ships!

Trump cares Nothing about American lives or Safety! He only cares about the Profit Margin!

I see air crashes over major Metropolitan cities. Good luck this summer, and spring.

VERY concerning. I wonder what reason the White House would give for such a stupid thing to do – – stupid in the sense that it admits to the perfidious undermining of the Constitution being done by Putin’s poodle and his Repugnican acolytes.

We have at least one running the DOD and it’s not working well at all, as far as our allies are concerned. My concern is that as the weather warms with more and more protesters gathering en masse, Trump will call for martial law and we’ll see knee caps being shot. That question of shooting people in the legs was danced around and never denied.

Expand full comment

The one thing about martial law is that it will stifle commerce. No money in the billionaires pockets.

It will insure chaos. It may happen. Or not. 😧

Expand full comment

Martial law suspends the rights of civilians which involves curfews, suspension of free speech, the right to gather in protests, and suspension of rights of freedom from unreasonable searches. Those who ignore martial law could be brought before a military tribunal. Travel restrictions vary so it could have a negative impact on business and commerce. We only need to understand that it’s not just our First Amendment rights being affected. The military could also confiscate civilian weapons. The military commander has unlimited power during martial law.

Excellent reporting, Mr. Cohen. I like your brain.

I appreciate Brian Tyler Cohen’s comprehensive review of airline incidents since Trump took control and acts oblivious to what’s happening in aviation.To have Our former Secretary of Transportation be blamed when the current Trump appointed replacement is announcing he’s on Air Force 1 on its way to the Daytona 500 auto race is an indication of how little Trump and his appointee cares about what happens to the citizens of the world who ride on airplanes that crash. The Republican lead Congress that voted to approve Trump’s nominees for jobs they are not qualified to do will carry the blame along with him.

And may those 30% of VOTERS who decided to stay home because they couldn’t quite bring themselves to vote for Kamala, (God forbid a woman of color as President?), or they just think their vote doesn’t matter, MUST VOTE OUT all these spineless Republicans!

Trump’s term is not about public service like every other president but his goal is to serve a few at our expense. Other than Musk the rest of his circle will be thrown out like trash. Worst leader in the history of the world

I wasn’t happy with her at first but I probably will never vote for a Republican again and this was only the fourth time I didn’t vote for a Republican presidential nominee. Once in the 70s and the last three elections. I am from Texas and stopped voting republican since Perry.

Expand full comment

It’s never too late to have an awakening to the fact that trump, Musk and a small group of people from Project 2025 are destroying the country. The Republican Party of Eisenhower and even Nixon (those who pressured him to resign) are a dead party. I’ve never voted for a Republican and I’ve been voting since the early 1970’s. No one, even those who voted for Trump, voted for the Nazi saluter Musk. The Democrat and Progressive tent is a large one. Welcome.

What worries me the most is he makes everyone fall in line even influenced judges toward his views and judges should always be impartial. On the party of choice the progressives are far too left for me as MAGA’s are far too right.

Expand full comment

I’m curious—what parts of the Progressive agenda do you think are too extreme? A living wage? Healthcare for All, affordable housing, lower prices for food, gasoline, prescriptions, transitioning to green energy and its job creation to protect the environment, reforming the Immigration system that has not been updated in 30 years by either party? Maybe I’m missing something.

Expand full comment

No I am far living wages I am for fair share for taxes everyone pays their fare share. Which means if one percenters are making 70% of the income then the should contribute that much in taxes. I am a true centrist every issue should have a compromised solution regulation of gun ownership and no laws that prevent personal of one’s body especially reproductive health. Also I big on education. You said you were voting since the seventies so were about the same age in the south they had Dixiecrats now there MAGA’s that one reason in Texas I was raised pro Republican until Kenned was elected the Republicans were the party of civil rights. My first election was Nixon. When he resigned and they nominated Ford I voted for Carter because I thought it should have been someone not associated with Nixon. I vote for VP Harris but maybe that’s why she lost she was to closely associated with President Biden. All I want is the is our Democracy and Constitution to be what our forefathers envisioned. I will vote blue probably the rest of my life but want Biden, Harris, and Raskin type Democrats politicians.

So what exactly is the extreme lefts’ positions you object to? We seem to be on the da le page for many policy issues and I think Democrats rats must give the young legislators a bigger role at the table. They love Bernie Sanders still who espouses each item I mentioned above. They are a larger voting block than we Boomers now so they deserve to be heard. I think if you ask most Americans, they will tell you they support the Constitution and the Rule of Law for everyone, equally. But that is NOT what we saw with Trump or now NYC Mayor Eric

Adams. Will there come true justice in those cases? Probably only for Trump. As soon as Adams completes his marching orders and ICE arrests thousands of New Yorkers, and sends them to GITMO, Trump will discard him like he abandoned Rudy Giuliani.

Progressives TOO far left?? The political paradigm has shifted so far right that todays "progressives" are what used to be moderate republicans back in the 50s and 60s.......Do some serious research......

Expand full comment

Yes, it’s why I kept asking what exactly on the left is “too far left?” The US is the only advanced nation that does not have universal healthcare for all. There’s a system of Medicare and Medicaid that are both now being attacked by Musk and Trump and of course, SS has always been the target for privatization by Republicans. God help us.

They all have blood on their hands......from plane and train crashes to epidemics all across the country, to toxic pollution being allowed to be dumped into our air and water, to no safety standards for employees or consumers, and so much more.......how many will die due their spineless knee bending to suck on dt's little mushroom???

Expand full comment

Agree and liked. May I suggest we start calling them Repugnicans? This will differentiate the very few decent human beings who happen to be Republican.(including in my humble opinion, Lisa Murkowski, and certainly including Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney) from those who are actively participating in the destruction of our country and world by spinelessly going along with every harmful Trump/Musk action.

The article and video were very good. I would like for him to give us some comparison. Yes, it seems like a lot of airline problems (that we don't know for sure were caused by any changes the trump admin made) but I certainly don't know how many similar incidents happened from January 20 to February 18 of 2024. Or the total in 2024 to see what percentage of that number we have already had this year.

Trump is just going to deflect blame and use these crashes for PR stunts. May as well have them get on a normal flight, and if it crashes, they'll learn the hard way what they've done.

I agree Trump is a Moron and that we are all in the “FO” stage of FAFO. However, yesterday’s incidence in Canada has zero to do with Trump’s terrible policy changes. It is just unfortunate.

That upside down plane may have had extenuating weather circumstances as the cause, but the skill of the pilots are to be commended for saving lives. It’s the overall misery of every true American now throughout the country (except for the 1% billionaires and 31% that voted for this clown), that is leaving us all in a state of constant stress, anxiety, apprehension and soon mass mental health depression, followed by anger, indignation and violence by a few. It’s only a matter of time.

In the DUMPS first term we saw white supremacist and their supporters commit mass violence and even during President Biden’s term.

Now what we are seeing is blatant attacks on necessary government departments like FAA, OSHA, Education, and other government support agencies obliterated .

Thanks, Brian!

I wanted to add something.

Today I urge everyone to be aware of the economic blackout that is coming up February 28th during which no one buys anything. Then between March 7-14th no one should buy things through Amazon.

This is just a start. I ask anyone who reads this Substack to re-stack this on as many Substack groups as possible. The counter-attack against Trump begins on February 28th!
