We should not be relying on air traffic control technology that came out during the glory days of Elvis & Duran Duran. That’s why we’ve unveiled a plan to build a brand new system and train the best and brightest air traffic controllers. Under President Donald J. Trump, we... will deliver!show more

@POTUS Thank you for taking air traffic control seriously. The last Transportation Secretary was a joke.

🇺🇸 Trump: Better Coverage than 5G...Can you hear us now? 🇺🇸 Get ready to celebrate the 2025 Presidential Inauguration!

The FAA’s tech is stuck in the 70s—floppy disks, copper wires, and controllers working 6-day weeks. Congress has known about this for decades but kept rubber-stamping half-measures. Biden’s 2024 budget proposed $8B for upgrades, yet here we are in 2025 with the same leaks and delays. Duffy’s plan is a start, but real accountability means slashing bureaucratic bloat, not just throwing cash at a system that’s 3,500 controllers short. Fix the rot, don’t just repaint it.

@POTUS Elvis and Duran Duran? One is from the 50s and one is from the 80s

@POTUS Ha! To be fair, Duran Duran is still outperforming the ATC tech though…

@POTUS Please consider changing the age of ATC entrants to 45. I aged out before 31, and this would open up a SLEW of candidates. I scored 97 on Atsa but government hiring freeze screwed me from coming in OTS

@POTUS Elvis and Duran Duran couldn’t be more unrelated in timeframes.

@POTUS While I completely agree and support this…who is to say that Duran Duran are not still in their glory days?!!!!!

@POTUS Buttigieg left a big mess.

@Noopdoggy05 @POTUS Elvis was dead when Duran Duran came out.

@POTUS When you want to talk, look for indians. When you want a plan (that cost a few billions), talk to muricans.
