We don’t yet know the names of the 67 people we were killed, and you are blaming Democrats and DEI policies and Air Traffic Control and, seemingly, the member of the US military flying that Black Hawk helicopter.

New: Airlines in the US are now *required* to give you a REFUND for a canceled or significantly delayed flight, automatically. The DOT's "automatic refund provision" went into effect today. Good news for travelers with a month until the holiday rush begins.
