The sky is falling. That’s typically just a catchphrase for irrational fear but it may be coming true right before our very eyes. Thousands of flights have been delayed or cancelled. Air traffic controllers are working for free. Many are quitting. Others are using the shutdown and $0 paychecks as a sign to retire. We’re losing 15 to 20 air traffic controllers a day. This is a crisis with no end in sight. Just last week one area in NYC had just one ATC working the night shift. Yes. You heard that right. One air traffic controller. Now depending on your partisan affiliation you might blame the Democrats. ButRegardless of who you pin the shutdown on, one thing is for sure: we have an egghead in control of the Department of Transportation. That would be this guy. Sean Duffy. In fact, egghead is too generous.***Thanks for listening to Overnight Opinions, a recurring news show on topics the mainstream media isn’t telling you.
